Talk:Derwentwater

message: I'm curious as to the continuing trend in this article to replace one another's images, all of which are worthy of a place within the article. I have recently added my image of Derwentwater at Dusk to the article for the thitd after it was deleted for the second time in a month. I would much appreciate it if it could be left alone as I have had a number of messages of praise towards the image from other Wikipedia members and I believe the image portrays the lake's beauty well--Ian Hunter 08:58, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: To whoever, created the gallery, thanks. It's an excellent idea that should prevent any further changes to images-I-hunter 18:56, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

message: I've just discovered the above move discussions, and I'm astonished. Let me point out the following:
*The BBC calls it Derwent Water. See , in the story actually quoted in the External References section of this article.
*The 1925 Ordnance Survey map that is displayed at the top left of the article calls it Derwent Water.
*The current Ordnance Survey maps all call it Derwent Water. See 
*Google Maps calls it Derwent Water. See 
Surely that is pretty definative. -- Starbois (talk) 17:32, 4 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Re: the map. One could argue that if it said "Derwentwater", the word wouldn't quite fit within the lake. howcheng  {chat} 17:17, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

message: Turner has a watercolour with the lake, it's in the British Museum. Not being a native English, I don't venture to write this in the article. I guess someone with a better English could do it. Here's the link:
