I noticed that we use Mount and River before location names (Mount Cadon, River Nile). Should they not solely be titled as their individual names? This is the case on Wikipedia.--Skittles the hog--Talk 18:41, January 19, 2011 (UTC)

On Wikipedia mountains are titled with Mount; Wikipedia:Mount Arapiles, Wikipedia:Mount Bonython. There's also instances of the name after the Mount being in use as the name of the town, area or locale that the mountain is within, so the Mount is also a good disambiguator.
On the River Nile, would it be that when it's stated within the source it's called the "River Nile", rather than just the "Nile"? --Tangerineduel / talk 14:19, January 20, 2011 (UTC)

I guess so. Thanks for clearing that up.--Skittles the hog--Talk 17:17, January 20, 2011 (UTC)
