Talk:List of river by name

Contested deletion

This article should not be speedy deleted as being recently created, having no relevant page history and duplicating an existing English Wikipedia topic, because There is no simple alphabetically arranged list of the worlds rivers. Wikipedia would be an excellent site to hold this list. I can see the argument for not having a alphabetical list because there is already a geographically arranged lists spread around the world. Bringing all the rivers together in one simple list with hyper links for each river would be good for people comparing river names. A good example for which the alphabetically arranged list would be duplication of river names. Avon has many geographical regions but this list would neatly bring them together.
