Notability

[edit]

Can a storm drain really be considered notable? Is this anything more than a gutter? --Gimme danger (talk) 04:53, 4 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Depends on whether it is really a water course. A lot of natural watercourses in developed cities have been tuned into "drains". A good example is the Tank Stream, also in Sydney. It is very significant, being the colony's first water supply, but is essentially a drain today. Maybe Saleyards Creek is just a drain, or maybe the opening line is inaccurate and it has a history that should be in Wikipedia. For example, why is it called "Saleyards"?

[edit]

Canalisation of the stream has affected salinity and pollution levels in nearby tidal wetlands.[4] I can't see where exactly the report refers to Salesyards Creek and its specific relation to these issues. LibStar (talk) 05:20, 16 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
