Length of river

[edit]

Much of the material in this section reads as though it is original research, which WP does not support; certainly it is not referenced. I suggest that what cannot be referenced should be deleted. I shall see what sources might be available. #Geopersona (talk)

I think the sources might best be looked for in books or academic material rather than just on line.SovalValtos (talk) 12:19, 28 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
I'm sure you're right - it's becoming increasingly difficult to find this sort of data on-line amongst all of the wikipedia mirror sites and wikipedia-derived facts (actual or not!) on third party sites. Are you aware where this increasing wiki-hegemony may have been discussed? cheers Geopersona (talk) 12:41, 28 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
Sorry no idea about where 'wiki-hegemony may have been discussed'.SovalValtos (talk) 13:50, 28 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
Finally got around to measuring the length of the river using wheresthepath website. Turns out that, to better than 1% error, it is 115km / 71.5 miles in length from source to county limit at low tide, very close to the figures already provided. My figures are my own 'OR' so cannot be used. cheers Geopersona (talk) 20:52, 30 December 2021 (UTC)Reply
Have found a book for a slightly different figure, but it is now referenced as per WP policy! Geopersona (talk) 08:46, 12 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
