Talk:Neretva

message: My edit summary got cut off, but what I was trying to say about my edit is that beauty is subjective and, under WP:NPOV, isn't an attribute that can be expressed as fact in a Wikipedia article. If there are reliable sources (WP:RS) that make it clear that the river is known by many for its beauty, it can be stated that people consider it to be so. As for uniqueness: this is not the only beautiful or diverse river in the world, so calling the Neretva unique for having these qualities is simply false. —Largo Plazo (talk) 21:53, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I've just replaced the previously restored uniqueness reference. As I wrote in my edit summary, the fact that someone else fallaciously used the word "unique" doesn't mean that it's factually unique. Yes, it may be unique in the sense that, as Santasa99 said to me, every person is unique, but in that sense, it isn't then worth mentioning. In that case, every article on every river, every country, every forest, every city, and every person could mention that the topic was "unique", but then there wouldn't be any point in mentioning it; it would be like writing somewhere, in every biographical article, "X has unique fingerprints", as though that were interesting. There isn't any point in saying something's unique unless it's unique in the sense that it's different from everything else in some remarkable way. —Largo Plazo (talk) 18:41, 24 March 2009 (UTC)

message: There are many "Bosnian language" references in the text. I suggest that we dual-script them to Cyrillic too, and change the language name to BCS or Serbo-Croatian, because Bosnian is not the only official language of Bosnia and Herzegovina. --Ivan Štambuk (talk) 00:45, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

message: The section on the river's dams appear to be a critique of the environmental effects of the dams rather than a description of them. This violates WP:NPOV. While it is reasonable to mention the detrimental environmental effects, such weight is not needed. For starters, the section is entitled "Dam Problems" as opposed to, say "Dam Situation"

message: In fact, the entire article suffers from POV language, and I've noted a few such phrases in my edit summary--"still enjoy the unique atmosphere" "the infamous project" "This is a cunning plan of engineers". It's pretty obvious that some editors are greatly interested in the protection of this river (and good luck to them), but it goes at the expense of the article's neutrality.

thread_title:  External links modified (February 2018) 

message: The entry cites a river depth of nearly 4000 feet, well over a kilometer. This must be quite incorrect. That  would make it by far the deepest river in the world, more than 3 times the record-holding Congo's depth. The author seems to be confusing canyon depth with river depth. This mistake, which made me say "that can't be right!" when I looked up the river's depth while reading about the famous bridge-diving at Mostar, is now picked up around the editor-free internet.
Since the river is classified into 3 distinct zones, a helpful discussion of its depth (and the river's hydrology and ecosystems) would best be separated into those 3 divisions, too. But the depth figure provided is certainly wrong -- by a couple orders of magnitude. Westcider (talk) 19:48, 2 September 2022 (UTC)
