comments[edit]

I think it quite silly to have a notability notice on a wikiproject entry. It's here because it's a member of a notable set. The proper question is what class of basin is sufficiently coarse to not get bogged down in minutiae. I think the right division was made. Tributary creeks of the next finer class of watershed division == they ought need be notable. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.2.166.21 (talk) 10:37, 18 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notability Tag[edit]

I placed that tag in the article, per notability guidlines, which say:

This page in a nutshell: A topic is presumed to be notable if it has received significant coverage in reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject.

On this page, no coverage is shown in any source (also the reason for the unreferenced tag) Just following policy KoshVorlon ".. We are ALL Kosh..." 16:43, 19 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Just because the article doesn't have sources in it yet, doesn't magically make it not notable. Again Kosh, you're misunderstanding notability guidelines and simply cherrypicking a sentence from one of the guideline pages. The notability tag was removed and if you really feel the Potomac tributary is non-notable, send it to AfD. --Oakshade 16:47, 19 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]
