Talk:Bridge scour

Need to update
I think there is a need to update the bridge scour Wikipedia page because there was too little information regarding to bridge scour prevention and countermeasure as well as the methods of scour estimation. New techniques and technologies were introduced to estimate scour depth but was not included in the Wiki page. Also, the low accuracy of HEC-18 manual should be brought to public’s attention.

Impact of recent student edits
This article has recently been edited by students as part of their course work for a university course. As part of the quality metrics for the education program, we would like to determine what level of burden is placed on Wikipedia's editors by student coursework.

If you are an editor of this article who spent time correcting edits to it made by the students, please tell us how much time you spent on cleaning up the article. Please note that we are asking you to estimate only the negative effects of the students' work. If the students added good material but you spent time formatting it or making it conform to the manual of style, or copyediting it, then the material added was still a net benefit, and the work you did improved it further. If on the other hand the students added material that had to be removed, or removed good material which you had to replace, please let us know how much time you had to spend making those corrections. This includes time you may have spent posting to the students' talk pages, or to Wikipedia noticeboards, or working with them on IRC, or any other time you spent which was required to fix problems created by the students' edits. Any work you did as a Wikipedia Ambassador for that student's class should not be counted.

Please rate the amount of time spent as follows:
 * 0 -No unproductive work to clean up
 * 1 - A few minutes of work needed
 * 2 - Between a few minutes and half an hour of work needed
 * 3 - Half an hour to an hour of work needed
 * 4 - More than an hour of work needed

Please also add any comments you feel may be helpful. We welcome ratings from multiple editors on the same article. Add your input here. Thanks! -- LiAnna Davis (WMF) (talk) 20:31, 27 May 2012 (UTC)

Page move
Scour happens to more than just bridges. Maybe the page ought to be moved to Scour (?????). Thoughts? Anna Frodesiak (talk) 19:05, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
