Talk:List of rivers of Europe

message: Call me crazy, but this is not a list ... I should be able to find something on a list. I doubt anyone will ever care, but I guess I'm just pissed at the name ... I was like, "Wow, a list of rivers in Europe, that's exactly what I need!" but then, I get here, but IT IS SORTED BY OCEAN AND THEN BY COUNTRY, LIKE WHAT? That was real helpful when I came here to find what it's exact name was, which country it was in, and which body of water it flowed into ... If I knew it was in France, I would go to a list of rivers in France for heaven's sake. There'd be no reason for me to come here. I mean, if this isn't supposed to be a list, fine, but change the name. It's false advertising. Otherwise, WHY NOT JUST GO ALPHABETICALLY LIKE ANY LOGICAL PERSON WOULD DO??? If it looks like I'm shouting, that's because I am. RedNitrogen 22:11, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

message: That brings me to another point: how complete do we want the list of rivers of Europe to be? It's getting pretty big, so maybe we should mention the rivers with only local significance (for example some tributaries to the Danube and Elbe, such as Zusam, Schnauder, Lockwitz) only on the list of rivers of the related country. And there are tons of articles about English and Scottish rivers, adding them would nearly double the length of the article.

message: I want to make one observation: not the Western Bug is the inflow of Narev river, but on the contrary, Narev - inflow of the Western Bug, but that falls into the Vistula. 194.190.184.254 08:44, 25 Mar 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not an expert on Polish rivers, so I've looked it up in the Polish Wikipedia (I can't read Polish very well, but I understand some Russian). The part of the river between the confluence of Bug and Narew and the outlet into Vistula is called Narew, but often (I suppose czesto means often) referred to as "Bugo-Narew". The funny thing is that this Bugo-Narew is mentioned at pl:Bug (rzeka) but not at pl:Narew (rzeka). There, Narew is simply a tributary of the Vistula, and Bug a tributary of Narew.

message: I have a question regarding the river Dintel/Mark in the Netherlands. It does not flow into the Rhine, Meuse or Scheldt (although it is historicaly considered to be part of the Meuse bassin), but flows instead into the Volkerak. This used to be a wide delta stream / estuary that split off the Hollands Diep / Haringvliet (both major estuaries of both Rhine and Meuse) and flowed into the Oosterschelde (originaly an estuary of the Scheldt). However, the connection between the Oosterschelde and the Scheldt does no longer exist. During the Delta Works, dams were placed on both ends of the Volkerak, so the connection with the Rhine and Meuse was lost as well. From that moment on, the Volkerak is a fresh water lake surrounded by active estuaries and large sea-inlets. So: what about rivers that flow into the Volkerak? They can no longer be called parts of any larger bassins (such as that of the Scheldt and Meuse). Neither can they be considered tributaries of other rivers. So, should these rivers appear in the list as flowing into the North Sea? DaMatriX (talk) 12:58, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

message: May I suggest that the pictures in the article should be formatted to a uniform size in order to appear less chaotic? After all, it's a list and the pictures serve mainly illustrative purposes, don't they? Any opinions? Yakikaki (talk) 18:00, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

message: Severn is like totally longer than the Thames Maaaan.
Should be on the list of longest rivers along with the Trent and the Ouse and that other one.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.149.90.135 (talk) 00:07, 26 May 2013 (UTC)

message: There is at least one error in the chart: the rain that falls on  the isle of Texel most certainly does not drain via the Rhine delta!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.205.183.114 (talk) 09:15, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

message: Currently, the overview map in the article focuses on showing drainage basins rather than river locations and names.  Maybe a simplistic map showing the listed rivers should be created and added as a visual overview of the subject.

message: Surely it's incongruous to have the Thames as 360km length, but when you click on the Thames page it's 346km.  I can't help but think they need to match?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Beyondheat (talk • contribs) 11:02, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
