Disambiguation?

Is this the Naka River ja:那珂川 (関東) in Tochigi and Ibaraki Prefectures? Or the Naka River ja:中川 that flows from Saitama Prefecture to Tokyo under various names? Fg2 10:58, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

To be honest, I don't know. I saw a NHK documentary about it. It was focused on one fisherman and fishes. Narrator also said that it doesn't flow through any major city and is thus very clean. - Darwinek 11:22, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My guess is that Fg2 is correct. I didn't try 那珂. Just, 那賀 (which exists; but not in eastern Japan). The Tochigi/Ibaraki river article is much longer on the Japanese wiki, too. Neier 11:30, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

We need some user who can read Japanese to be sure of change to Tochigi/Ibaraki. - Darwinek 11:47, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

My problem is English! I've never heard of a fish called "dace." The article on 那珂川 (関東) mentions chum salmon, ayu, and herring. I can't find any connection between those and dace. So I'm stumped. Fg2 12:06, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't even realize dace was a fish until I looked it up. Google lists some NHK shows about 那珂川, including fishing shows, but, nothing about Spring. It is hard to see if any of the 中川 NHK links are real (too many people named Nakakawa). Maybe it is best to create two stubs, and have this page as a DAB? Neier 12:25, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

That would be probably the best solution. I haven't translated the title of this NHK documentary to English. It was shown on the Czech TV as "Jaro přichází s ostroretkami". On the official Czech TV website it was written that the original name is that what is written in this article. - Darwinek 12:44, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
