Pambar River
Hello and thank you for creating Pambar River. Please can you now fix the resulting mis-directed links? This is difficult for a non-expert to do, as the topics are similar. Thanks, Certes (talk) 16:37, 30 September 2018 (UTC)

-- Only the “Rivers of Tamil Nadu” page needs to refer to the individual rivers. All other items refer to the River of Kerala only as it is the better known one. Is there a way to change all those references at one go? Thanks! Jamadagni (talk) 17:05, 30 September 2018 (UTC)
 * ✅. Thanks for fixing List of rivers of Tamil Nadu. Certes (talk) 17:41, 30 September 2018 (UTC)

Vector map of Ganga/Brahmaputra
Oh, that was almost ten years ago. I searched around and found that I made it on a computer I no longer have. I should have a backup on an old CD-R or DVD-R, but have no way to read those discs right now. I plan to someday buy an optical disc reader, but no idea when that'll happen. I got the river data from Natural Earth's large-scale physical vectors, here: http://www.naturalearthdata.com/downloads/10m-physical-vectors (which is free and has a Wikipedia-friendly license). To read/convert the data I used an educational version of ArcExplorer that I think is no longer available, but it shouldn't be too hard to do with QGIS, an open source free GIS program, and really good, if a bit complicated (though learning how to just read/convert shapefiles shouldn't take long). I probably made a basic, ugly, raw map in ArcExplorer, exported as a raster image, loaded into Illustrator, and traced the rivers in Illustrator to clean things up, probably making some minor changes/additions based on other references, and finalized everything in Photoshop. I don't even have Illustrator or Photoshop these days, so probably couldn't open the files even if I had access to them.

Sorry! Still, the Natural Earth datasets are available in several formats. I used the shapefile format (SHP), which should work in various programs; certainly any GIS software (I think "ArcGIS Explorer Desktop" might be free), QGIS, TNTatlas, Google Earth, some CAD software, and various other tools. There are also various free "GIS Data Viewers" that might be useful. Plus there are tools to convert shapefiles to KML and other formats. I'm quite rusty on all this and not exactly sure what the easiest approach is these days. Hope that helps and sorry I couldn't do more. Pfly (talk) 07:12, 6 July 2020 (UTC)
