River name edit

One can find out the river name online:

  • Go to http://www.swissgeo.org/
  • Enter 'Müstair' in the search field
  • Zoom out to scale 1:200.000
  • Scroll so that the Swiss-Italian border is in the centre of the image

One will now see, that in the Swiss part, it's called Il Rom, whereas in the Italian part, it's called Rio Ramm. I think the resulting image can be found here. However, zooming out to 1:500.000 results in this image: here, the river is only called Rio Ramm. It seems as if there are two names, and Swisstopo seems to prefer Rio Ramm. Therefore, I will change the reference in the article back to Rio Ramm, with Il Rom between parentheses. Gerrit CUTEDH 08:05, 2 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

There is now an article on the river at Rom River, as the "a" version seems to be in use in Italy, I removed it from this article. -- User:Docu
