Overclassification

It is stupid to have to know the county to be able to find a river in Ireland. Gene Nygaard (talk) 18:35, 22 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

There is no such requirement - rivers can be searched for directly. However, even allowing for the fact that some are in multiple counties, dumping all of them into one mess of a category would be underclassification.
It is unfortunate, though, that Monaghan and Leitrim do not seem to have their own sub-cats. No notable rivers at all there? SeoR (talk) 14:02, 27 March 2008 (UTC)Reply
