Selenga
- ... that the Selenga River is the principal source of freshwater in Mongolia?" Source: " in 2009 56.68 million m^3 of water was pumped from the Selenga River for the city of Ulan-Ude alone?"
5x expanded by SakuraGinger (talk). Self-nominated at 03:58, 9 December 2020 (UTC).
Expansion began on November 2. Nomination created on November 8, but 5x expansion was not reached until November 19, and added here only on December 8.
- Other issue is the hook itself: it is an informal fallacy. Just because 56.68 million m3 is pumped from the river (according to off-line Ref. 9) doesn't automatically mean it is the principal source of freshwater in Mongolia. Moreover that particular statement in the article has reference 14 (Aquastat), which doesn't state that. -- P 1 9 9 ✉ 20:15, 10 December 2020 (UTC)
