File talk:Nyang River.jpg

River identification and location

The location/description of this picture shall be clarified before it can be used without doubt in wikipedia main space. It can either concern:

• a picture of the Nyang Chu (Nyingchi), but the description is misleading and shall be modified from "Nyang River in Tibet, near Lhasa" to "Nyang River in Tibet, Prefecture of Nyngchi"), as the river is not located within Lhasa Prefecture and does not pass close to the town of Lhasa either.
• a picture of another stream called Nyang Chu, that would possibly flow near Lhasa (similar to this picture from 1936 referring to a Nyang chu river flowing through Chusul, close to the counfluence of the Kyi Chu and Yarlung Tsangpo, west of Lhasa). I believe though this the caption is an error and that the photography shows the Kyi Chu river and valley.
• a picture of another stream/river with unknown name.

In the absence of a clear description or geolocation, I would recommend not to use this picture in wp mainspace.--Pseudois (留言) 13:51, 2 November 2015 (UTC)
