Talk:Nechako Reservoir

Sub-lakes and arms
I just created Knewstubb Lake but am wondering, given the large number of sub-lakes of this reservoir whether tha was necessary, and if all mentions of the other sublakes should just link/redirect to this article; some existed before the reservoir, many did not; those that existed before perhaps - perhaps- should have their own articles. The etymology and BCGNIS for all of them should all be here, once assembled; or should they have their own articles? it's all one big - very big - lake/reservoir, but the names still exist indepedently on all maps and are often referred to independently.Skookum1 (talk) 14:34, 5 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Before creating a series of stubs for all of them, I'd rather attempt to develop one article here, but as content grows longer, there isn't really much against making an article on each of them, especially as information on a (former) Knewstubb Lake is probably better on Knewstubb Lake than Nechako Reservoir.
 * BTW we have Lake Michigan-Huron even when there are Lake Michigan and Lake Huron.
 * Personally I refrained from adding infobox lake to Knewstubb Lake. -- User:Docu


 * well, I guess for now what I might do is assemble all the BCGNIS refs for each part of the lake to try and give us a handle on the scope of what we're up against; some pre-existed, many didn't; there are vainshed stretches of river, too, with their names now submerged/changed....its' quite a list, maybe I better assemble it here; I'm not aware of any other lake that has so many named sub-parts.....Skookum1 (talk) 14:42, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

I'm not done yet, but that'as maybe half of them or more...incl. Knewstubb; I'll have to look at Basemap to see all the others, and to check Troitsa...these were all by memory....Skookum1 (talk) 15:07, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

 * Basemap's having trouble, not loading a layer, must be a sys problem at their end, will check later once it's workign again...Skookum1 (talk) 15:18, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

re reqmap
The map needed here is not a location map, but a map of the reservoir showing all its sublakes and arms/reaches; there are at least twenty placenames associated with this lake - Tahtsa Lake, Whitesail Lake, Whitesail Reach, Chedakuz Arm, Euchuk, Natalkuz, Tetachuck, Knewstubb Ootsa and Eutsuk Lakes, St.-something's bay (where the intake is, also the isthmus of the Quanchus Range, which lies within the main arms of the lake etc....see "Basemap Online Store" via google and have a look, it's a major mapping project for somebody who's good with lake/marine maps....I'll ask User:Pfly but he's pretty busy with diapers these days, mabye the person who made the Lake Huron map on the Lake Project mainpage ?Skookum1 (talk) 14:40, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
