Talk:List of bodies of water in Vancouver

message: The official name, according to the Vancouver Park Board, is Spanish Bank. Whether that carries over to the creek is up for debate, but at least one source (added to article) uses Spanish Bank Creek. See Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Vancouver for discussion on Spanish Bank.  BTW, I changed this page when I was changing all references to Spanish Banks; I did not single out this page. If anyone feels strongly about the creek's name, change it back and leave a note on this talk page and I won't revert the change again. Usgnus 19:03, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The urbanstreams.org site uses Spanish Banks Creek at the top of the page but refers to the Spanish Bank Streamkeepers at the bottom of the page. Usgnus 19:14, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Spanish Bank Creek 

message: The original extension of False Creek to Glen Drive comes immediately to mind; its First Nations name calls the head-pond of it "bubbling up", as a large underground spring fed it in that area; supposedly connected to Still Creek/Burnaby Lake and Trout Lake.  There was also the "Tea Swamp", named for the cedar-stained colour of its water, in the Kingsway & Fraser/Knight area (or thereabouts).  And Lost Lagoon being originally almost a through-channel, likewise a swampy channel between False Creek and Burrard Inlet, around where Columbia Street is.  The flat part of Kitsilano-Alma was once called Malaria Flats because it was so swampy and, um, malaria-ridden - this extended up as far as Kind Ed in its furthest reaches, way past 16th anyway.  Somewhere there's a website showing the pre-urbanization creeks....I imagine this article, like others in the WikiProject, should list water-objects in the rest of the GVRD too, no?Skookum1 21:59, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

message: I have made a small edit to the section on Trout Lake to note that, per the BC Habitat Wizard, Trout Lake has not been stocked since 2006, and has not been stocked with cutthroat trout since 1988.  https://maps.gov.bc.ca/ess/hm/habwiz/
I would however note that Hastings Park Sanctuary Pond is stocked bi-annually
