On 19 May 2024, it was proposed that this article be moved from Nerodimka River to Nerodime River. The result of the discussion was moved.

Merge

Yes, I admit that bifurcation of the Nerodimka river is a cool factoid, but do we really need to treat it separately from the river itself? Neither article is too long, and the bifurcation is practically the only thing which makes the river so notable anyway. No such user (talk) 15:13, 26 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I went ahead and merged the articles. The old talk is still at Talk:Bifurcation of the Nerodimka river No such user (talk) 08:22, 16 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Does this still exist?

I researched a bit how this "bifurcation" really looks like and why there aren't more photos of it across the globe; surely there must be a multitude of material for such a cool phenomenon? The Serbian wiki article (sr:Nerodimka) seems to do the best job in explaining that this does not really exist (anymore). To summarize, the river itself is a rather small stream, which flows naturally towards the east into the Aegean sea. To the north, there are swamps and ponds from which the Sitnica river of Black Sea basin originates. Throughout the history, the two used to be connected by various overhead and underground canals, mostly man-made, but as result of lack of maintenance they get mudded and there's no real bifurcation anymore, just a potential for one. Google translate of relevant sr.wiki paragraph:

However, the bifurcation of Nerodimka, whether artificial or not, ceased to exist as a phenomenon in the second half of the 20th century. In fact, probably because of the need for water, some water mills, and perhaps ordinary negligence of people, bottom of the left branchin Terazije get raised in relation to the parent stream, thus the bed of the Black Sea branch up to the arm of the former mouth of the lake, a distance of about 1,000 meters - has dried up. Thanks to the fact that the bottom of the lake sloped to the north and to the river and Sazlijska Slivovka continue supplying water to the rest of the flow of the river, it nevertheless continued to flow towards the Sitnica and the Black Sea. But, because of the interruption of water flow Nerodimka ceased to be part of the Black Sea, so it is no longer possible to speak of a bifurcation.

To add to the complexity, even the Aegean branch bifurcates (and rejoins) within itself, and probably that's what makes people think they are at the real oceanic watershed. Does the split whose photo can be located on page 5 of Gashi [1] still exist and where does it lead? No such user (talk) 09:04, 16 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

To partially answer to myself, that spot (also shown in http://gbtimes.com/travel/one-river-flowing-two-seas) is at 42°22′19″N 21°08′00″E / 42.371812°N 21.133275°E. From the maps, however, it is not clear where the northern branch leads. No such user (talk) 07:46, 18 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Nerodimka River → Nerodime River – The name Nerodime is the most common name for this river in Kosovo by its citizens. Also there appears to be an advantage of "Nerodime" to "Nerodimka" in a simple Google Scholar search. The Nerodime River is especially famous for its bifurcation.

Nerodime [2] - About 215 results.

Nerodimka [3] - About 93 results.

Also, international agencies have also used the name Nerodime to refer to this river. [4][5][6]

So, I kindly request to change this name article to the one which the facts support. Typical Albanian (talk) 13:18, 19 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
