Did anyone hear about the Beluga Whale in the Delaware River? Their was a news article about the whale. Could someone add some information about the Beluga Whale spotting in the Delaware River? I thought it was a interesting fact so if anyone can add anything about the Beluga Whale go for it. -- Contrib 16:21, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)
I just read on Yahoo! News that Helis the Bulega Whale may have exited the Delaware River. If anyone adds anything about the bulega whale please let me know on my talk page. -- Contrib 16:24, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Spikebrennan 7 July 2005 21:58 (UTC) comments: The fact that the New Jersey-Delaware border is generally the tidal line on the Jersey side of the river/bay rather than down the middle has a few interesting consequences. For one thing, piers constructed from the New Jersey shore of the river/bay extend into Delaware territory. For another, the Delaware coastal zone (as defined in the Coastal Zone Management Act essentially applies to the entire width of the river and bay, which means that the Delaware law can affect New Jersey industrial land use.
What is the origin of the name? If the Dutch named it the South River, when did the name change? EdC 02:25, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
At the end of the third paragraph: "William Penn delegated defence responsibilites of predominantly Quaker Pennsylvania to Delaware by setting the New Jersey border to the mean low tide line on the Jersey side of the river."
I'd do it myself, but I really have no idea what it means :). SB_Johnny | talk 00:28, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
For future reference: at mean low tide, more land is exposed. this would be the maximum land area and benefit both states/colonies because the river and bay at their tidal minimums would make a more accurate line along the river's channel (the river would be divided in half). Further, Penn wasn't given the western division of NJ, he bought into it.-- ColonelHenry ( talk) 20:10, 29 July 2012 (UTC)
The current map of this river is hard to navigate; it doesn't clearly show the course of the river, as ones in other articles (such as the Hudson_River and the James_River). I'm certain everybody would appreciate it if a better and more standardized map were added. HoCkEy PUCK 02:18, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

The figure of 11 million gallons for the Corinthos seems implausibly high. That would make it comparable to the Exxon-Valdez spill. Binarybits ( talk) 11:03, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

This seems to be a translation of "Lenape river" from English back into Lenape as if the words were cherry-picked from the dictionary. Historically, the Lenape called it Kit-hanne, Lenapewhittuck, Mascker-kitton (and variants), Zukinoway, Lemaepose, at different times in the last 400 years and in different places along the river. None of these use "sipu."-- ColonelHenry ( talk) 19:57, 29 July 2012 (UTC)
An anonymous user has on a few occasions recently removed the state of Maryland from the lede sentence "Its watershed drains an area of 14,119 square miles (36,570 km2) in five U.S. states—New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland and Delaware.
A very small sliver in Maryland's Cecil County is located in the Delaware River's drainage basin (watershed) through the inclusion of the White Clay Creek watershed. [1] [2] and the watershed of the Christina River [3].
Continued attempts to remove the state of Maryland from the series in the sentence above will be reverted, with a note to refer to this discussion.-- ColonelHenry ( talk) 02:09, 25 May 2013 (UTC)
{{ Geobox}} Currently the geobox template (seen on right) is used on this article. As an infobox, it is big and unwieldy, disrupts a better arrangement of the information and images in the article, and it is my opinion that the information is best discussed in the article. I'd keep the image of the river at Walpack Bend in the lede, move the map down to the course section, and discuss the statistics in the course section.
I am inclined because of its huge size on the page, and for ease of editing the lede, that it needs to be removed and appropriate insertion of the material into the appropriate sections of article content would be preferable and advisable.-- ColonelHenry ( talk) 22:46, 27 May 2013 (UTC)
Per WP:BOLD, I am removing the geobox/infobox.-- ColonelHenry ( talk) 22:52, 27 May 2013 (UTC)
The more I think about this infobox, I am tempted to remove it.-- ColonelHenry ( talk) 12:34, 17 June 2013 (UTC)
