For the Dartmoor project.

A list of rivers on Dartmoor, with their tributaries. Source grid reference required & outflow to the sea for info. It is unlikely that it would be sensible to get picture of the source of very river however we should aim to have a picture of the river close to its source & around the point where it leaves the moor. Only rivers with their source on Dartmoor will be included.

As one image is not sufficient for a river, an image of every significant location along the rives is desired. All photos of the rivers on Commons should be included in the lists at the appropriate point in the lists.

Images

[edit]

Any photo of a river is acceptable. However, together with the above, it is preferred that they meet the following criteria:

  1. Correctly Geotagged
  2. Are of a sufficient resolution to typically qualify as a quality image, that is at least 2 megapixels - naturally an exception exists for images that are Quality or Featured, but below that resolution.

Images that meet both requirements have a green background to the quality entry, if they meet one it will be yellow and neither red. All other technical criteria will be ignored, however, try to upload pictures of a good standard.

For simplicity only the first image uploaded of a specific feature on the river will be included in this table, unless the original fails the standards above and a later one qualifies, in which case it will be replaced. Exception: Featured and Quality images will take precedence (of course).

Any significant feature along the rivers (within the National Park) should be included in this table.
