While not technically wrong, the name "North River" for this stretch of the Hudson is at least obscure.

Also, while we are on this discussion: why is Category:Manhattan skylines a subcat of this category? Shouldn't we have a separate Category:Manhattan skylines from... and make that a subcat of both this category (whatever we call it) and of Category:Manhattan skylines? Many, perhaps most, Manhattan skylines have nothing to do with this stretch of water. Jmabel ! talk 22:48, 30 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

There is more than one "North River", so this page should be a disambig page and the current content moved to Category:North River (Hudson River) (en). Something apparently went wrong here – ping Epicgenius.    FDMS  4    23:38, 30 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Category:North River should probably renamed Category:North River (Hudson River) or merged to Category:Hudson River, as few people know what North River is in this context. On a similar note, many of the images in Category:North River can be copied to Category:Manhattan skylines as well, or even moved into a new category for skylines on the Hudson River.

I strongly oppose merging it with Category:Hudson River. That category is filled enough with photos, and it seems that due to population density, there are as many photographs of the Hudson north of the city as there are photos of it in and around the city. Differentiating between the two with these two separate categories makes everything much easier.--ɱ (talk) 03:01, 2 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
