Using an search of Google, more reference are to Plain than Lowlands.
Also, commercial encyclopedias refer to it as a Plain.

Removed refer to North European Lowlands. More location on Google (and commercial encyclopedias, like Britannica, etc.) refer to it as a Plain than a Lowlands Ajh1492 ( talk) 01:10, 29 June 2008 (DUTCH) ajh1492 28 June 2008
Article quality is being improved. Historical referenced to be moved elsewhere (i.e. commentary on Fulda Gap). Brief, out of context reference to Low countries and a one line comment on Poland, otherwise the article is about Germany. Ajh1492 ( talk) 01:10, 29 June 2008 (UTE) ajh1492 28 June 2008
Is it not false to call the North European Plain a geomorphological region, since, at least according to the European Plain article, it is the result of a historical and not geomorphological division of the European Plain? It would seem that the (Great) European Plain is the geomorphological region, and not this. I am now going to go post a similar question in Talk:North German Plain. -- Methegreat ( talk) 23:50, 18 September 2012 (UTC)

"The bases of these rivers are heavy with thin soil, making it hard for the farming industry to thrive in the located rivers.[citation needed]" What is a "base of a river"? What does it mean for it to be "heavy"? Why is the soil thin? (Was it exhausted by over-farming?) Is a "located river" different from an ordinary one? Finally, I find it hard to believe that farming occurs "in" the rivers. This sentence needs a lot more work than a citation. -- Solo Owl 16:40, 2 March 2021 (UTC)

It seems the term North European Plain is used quite a bit by geologists?
I found a chapter on it in this book, edited by Marc Oliva, Daniel Nývlt, and José M. Fernández-Fernández: Periglacial Landscapes of Europe (Springer Cham, 2023) ISBN: 978-3-031-14894-1
The term was also mentioned by one Charles Turner in his article "The Eemian interglacial in the North European plain and adjacent areas" doi: 10.1017/S0016774600023660
Turner defines the plain as stretching from the Netherlands to Russia. That would be the North European Plain + the East European Plain. If anybody is more interested in geology than me they could try to find these sources and take a look in them. Aspets ( talk) 21:31, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
