User:Nilfanion/Dartmoor/Water features

For the Dartmoor project.

A list of water features not covered elsewhere (in the River or Reservoir lists).

As one image is not sufficient for the leats, an image of every significant location along the leat is desired. In particular: Source and exit from moors/end of the leat.

Images

edit

Any photo of is acceptable. However, together with the above, it is preferred that they meet the following criteria:

  1. Correctly Geotagged
  2. Are of a sufficient resolution to typically qualify as a quality image, that is at least 2 megapixels - naturally an exception exists for images that are Quality or Featured, but below that resolution.

Images that meet both requirements have a green background to the quality entry, if they meet one it will be yellow and neither red. All other technical criteria will be ignored, however, try to upload pictures of a good standard.

For simplicity only the first image uploaded of a specific feature will be included in this table, unless the original fails the standards above and a later one qualifies, in which case it will be replaced. Exception: Featured and Quality images will take precedence (of course).
