Your first edits came to my notice as I keep a watch on Surface water. Unfortunately I have had to revert youir additions to the previous version for a number of reasons. Some of your changes changed technically correct text to words that were not the right ones in the context in which they were used. Changing precipitation to rain, sleet or snow for example removed the wiki link to precipitation which would have allowed raeders to get information about precipitation. Similarly the change from pathogenic to pathologic was not correct. Further down you removed references to the conservation uses of surface water mentioned in the classification system despite that being an important use of surface water. It also helps on Wikipedia to try and draw examples from across the world rather from a single country whenever possible. I do however appreciate your contribution and would welcome further edits to improve articles. Thanks   Velella  Velella Talk  23:11, 15 July 2013 (UTC)
