River articles

edit

A good way to know how to improve articles is to look at the most notable kind of thing you want to write about. These are probably developed to the point where they will give you ideas for other articles, especially if they have achieved Good article or Feature article status. For example you could check the Murray River and Snowy River articles to see where they are at and for an ideal example you might want to check Nile River and Mississippi River articles to see what needs to be done to the Fitzroy River page. You can just click edit this page and check the syntax without saving to learn formatting and such. Don't worry too much about making an error as someone else is likely to fix things in good time. - Shiftchange (talk) 11:33, 26 August 2009 (UTC)Reply
