- Keep a river this long passes WP:GEOLAND on its face, but the article does need a source or two. SportingFlyer talk 06:34, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. Meets WP:GEOLAND. I have expanded the article a bit and added a spelling variant. Nominations of major geographical features are always based in error. gidonb ( talk) 08:06, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. Rivers this long are clearly notable. -- Necrothesp ( talk) 15:41, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. 340km long river passes any threshold on notability.-- Darwinek ( talk) 22:47, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
- Keep. Satisfies GEOLAND. James500 ( talk) 01:49, 13 September 2018 (UTC)

I was not aware of this river's notability so thank you to everyone who illustrated that, but this article is still un-referenced, it should be a quick fix if there really is sufficient coverage though. Grapefruit17 ( talk) 19:08, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
- Hi Grapefruit17, per WP:NEXIST articles should not be nominated if references are missing. All that matters is that valid sources are out there. That said, the claim no references in the article is often used in AfDs which works very confusing. In fact, closing volunteers sometimes forget WP:NEXIST as well with the unfortunate result of wrong tallies and hard earned community labor disappearing from WP improperly. The proper response to missing references is WP:SOFIXIT. If that fails, a references or refimprove template can be added above the article. gidonb ( talk) 07:33, 14 September 2018 (UTC)
