Talk:1997 Central European flood

Millennium Flood

Do you think people would be more likely to look for this article under the title "Millennium Flood" or "1997 Oder Flood"? — Malik Shabazz ^Talk/_Stalk 05:18, 28 May 2010 (UTC)

I thing that the best name for this article is the 1997 European floods. The common name in Czech Flood in Moravia, becouse this floods affected whole Moravian country, not only Odra-basin. Significant damage recieved for example a village Troubky, in wich nine people died. The main point is that this village is near the Moravia river but far from Odra river. It's in Donau-basin which were also affected by this flood. Although not so brutal such Odra-basin. --Jenda H. (talk) 17:55, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

Either Janda's idea or the Millenium Flood, I'd say. I had this article on my to translate list as Central European flood of 1997. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk} 09:29, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

I have moved the article to 1997 Central European flood, per the naming convention from 2010 Central European floods. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk} 01:48, 5 March 2011 (UTC)

What is "Oder-km"?

In sub section Water levels, what is "Oder-km"? It is not explained. It could be the distance to the mouth or source of the river, but this does not seem to fit either way, e.g. for the first entry, Racibórz Miedonia --Mortense (talk) 11:00, 9 June 2013 (UTC)

Powódź Tysiąclecia

"Powódź Tysiąclecia" would translate better to something like "Flood of the Millennium" instead of "Millennium Flood" in my opinion Wojtekpolska1013 (talk) 18:11, 13 September 2024 (UTC)
