List of minor planets named after rivers

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

river is only a type if place. no need for a seperated list. 2001:DA8:201:3512:E433:1B8B:4CC0:AAF6 (talk) 16:59, 21 November 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * The nominator appears to be trying to say that this list could be merged with List of minor planets named after places but I'm not sure it easily can, as that list does not include natural features. Leaning towards keep. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 21:12, 21 November 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep, probably. It could merge to a List of minor planets named after natural features, if there were one; and it would be much the better for having and populating a "References" section (quaint and old-fashioned, I know), but there's no reason to delete this.

 * Keep yes, I'll get off the fence and bold my !vote. Per WP:CLT, I don't see a valid reason to delete this. Now, if someone wants to do the grunt work to somehow merge with the other list, which is minor planets named for populated places, or repurpose to a broader list of minor planets named for natural features, fine. But neither requires an Afd. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 20:21, 29 November 2016 (UTC)
