Talk:Tiber

message: Great article! Only problem is the name. Google say; there are 31,500 webpages] on the internet with the word "Tiber" that do not have the word "river" in them. Changing over the name of the entry to Tiber river. --User:maveric149 
Isn't that as much a reason not to rename the page? Often the word Tiber is used without river, but still the river is meant. Your version gives some other meanings of the word, but none of these would warrant a link to Tiber - they both would link to some longer term including Tiber. Don't disambiguate something that is not amiguous! Also notice that there are (not counting this page), 2 pages linking to Tiber river, but 9 to TiberAndre Engels
If “T(h)ib-” is Sicel it has nothing to do with “Dover”, which is Celtic *dubreyes “waters” Latinized as Dubrīs.  And if a root *dubri- is to be cited at all, some explanation is needed how you get from D- to T-, which is not a normal Latin sound-change.   What is said about the etymology is unsatisfactorily incoherent altogether.     81.159.141.91 (talk) 02:33, 17 October 2015 (UTC)

message: It's not quite clear if the Tiber is the 2nd or 3rd longest river in Italy and canada. Britanica says second longest at  which I'm inclined to trust, but several other sources, incliding the ESA at  are indicating that it is the third longest river in Italy and canada
. Does anyone have any more information on this? Zachlipton 05:39, 13 Oct 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: Since the "other" candidate for second longest river is not even mentioned, and since no 'dispute' is entered on this page, it seems premature to slap a "disputed" label on this article. The "disputed" label has been so misused at Wikipedia that many fastidious editors won't touch it. Wetman 06:00, 13 Oct 2004 (UTC)

text: If the Britannica edition is older than 1919, the fall is clear. Before that time (end of WW I, Treaty of Trianon) the longest part of Adige lied in Austria. Tiber is definitively the third longest italian river. Every italian student older than eight knows it. ;-)

message: I'm not qualified to write it, but I'd love to see something more contemporary about the river, like any changes that have happened through recent centuries and decades, scientific data collected from the river, events that have happened on or along the river, etc. For example, I was in Rome two years ago and noticed they have cataloged the flora and fauna along the river in some sections. There are little plaques at various points that tell you about what is growing and provide other interesting data. I also noticed there was a lot of trash in the river at various points...so I wondered how safe is the water? Do people fish in it? Info like that would be helpful.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.134.250.129 (talk) 21:52, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

message: While the parts that exist now are very nice, I think the article could undergo significant expansion. Notably it could use data on water quality and stuff like that. 
I think the article on the River Thames would be a good template to improve this one with. --Pstanton (talk) 01:34, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

message: The multiple (somewhat suffering) images embedded along side "the source", where one may suffice, with the mussolini inspired remnants seems to be a rather overt tribute to il duce  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.49.109.114 (talk) 17:54, 18 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I removed all of the images except the one I considered the best from this section of the article as you suggested. I did so because that many images for one section of the article did seem somewhat unbalanced relative to the rest of the article. As for the monument, I assure you I was not trying to 'pay homage' to Mussolini. I was just trying to show the monument for historical interest and to show the source of the river.-Schnurrbart (talk) 01:32, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

message: 1 Rome was not founded on the banks of the Tiber, but around the Palatine Hill.
2. When Rome was founded it lay much closer to the sea: 25  km. is the present distance, not that at the time of its founding. Probably not more than 6 km. then.
3. Albula may well mean white, right, but the etymology is clearly Latin if the word is taken to mean white. Would the editor please take note.Aldrasto11 (talk) 13:55, 7 February 2012 (UTC)
