Talk:Danube

Why American English?
The Danube is in Europe. Usually European geohraphic locations are in British English. --Ireadbooks12 (talk) 06:18, 27 June 2021 (UTC)


 * WP:COFAQ says either can be used when discussing non-American and non-British subjects. This means that Europe in general can be in either style, as long as the article is consistent throughout. This typically means once American or Queen's English has been chosen for an article, it stays that way. As an American, I love reading silly English 😜 so I'd say that if it means enough to you to change the article in its entirety, go for it! Cartographile (talk) 19:39, 16 March 2022 (UTC)

Native Names
Why is there a native name listed as Nepali while appearing to just be German? MrPritzel (talk) 02:00, 25 February 2022 (UTC)

River mouth, Romania or Ukraine?
While this article lists Romania as the location for the river mouth, the coordinates for the mouth are 6km east of the Romanian border, putting the terminus of the river squarely inside Ukraine. The delta is of course massive, and contains many forks in both countries, but based on Google Map's labeling, the main fork/branch (inherently not labeled as a fork) follows the Ukrainian/Romanian border until a point along its course 6km from the actual mouth, where the border dips south pushing Romania's boundaries significantly south of the river and well north of Ukraine's border.

My intent is to simply change the mouth's "location" field to Ukraine. Objections? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cartographile (talk • contribs) 20:00, 16 March 2022 (UTC)


 * I'd suggest to Just change It into Romania and Ukraine. 91.80.17.247 (talk) 09:36, 23 April 2022 (UTC)

10 countries?
The article says that it runs through/borders 10 countries, but only mentions 9. Is Moldova the last one?

 * At the time you wrote this question the text you're referring to says the following: "the river passes through or touches the borders of 10 countries: Romania (29.0% of basin area), Hungary (11.6%), Serbia (10.2%), Austria (10.0%), Germany (7.0%), Bulgaria (5.9%), Slovakia (5.9%), Croatia (4.4%), Ukraine (3.8%), and Moldova (1.6%)" - listed that's:


 * 1) Romania
 * 2) Hungary
 * 3) Serbia
 * 4) Austria
 * 5) Germany
 * 6) Bulgaria
 * 7) Slovakia
 * 8) Croatia
 * 9) Ukraine
 * 10) Moldova
 * So yes, the 10th and last one is indeed Moldova. Cartographile (talk) 15:50, 21 June 2022 (UTC)
