OK, let's go. Inevitably there are some quibbles.

• Image check - images appropriate with no copyright issues, good alt text present
• Ref check You do not need retrieval dates for on-line versions of "real" books or journals, such as the hydrographic register or the EA publications since the content will not change. Ref 18 to an online tertiary source is not RS; however, the site helpfully gives the original refe which you should use instead

OK all fixed. Jezhotwells (talk) 20:13, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

• Technical check Bristolian is a Dab page. All links OK

The Dab page does have the text: A native of Bristol, would you prefer I unliked this? Jezhotwells (talk) 20:13, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

• Why is floating harbour capitalised - it's lower case in the linked article?

That is how it is referred to by the City Council and others in Bristol as per [1]. Jezhotwells (talk) 20:13, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

• In "Course", is it possible to have some variation on "joined"?

Fixed Jezhotwells (talk) 20:13, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

• I don't like the very short sections which don't appear to fit any obvious plan. I'd merge Etymology with History, and both Navigation and Tributaries with Course

Fixed. Jezhotwells (talk) 20:13, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

• ... the river drops nearly 50 ft, and as a result there were a number of corn and other mills. needs metric units, and clarification of the link between the drop and mills being present
• Today a wheel at Snuff Mills survives, and the mill buildings of Cleeve Mill survive as a private residence two "survives"

Fixed. Jezhotwells (talk) 20:13, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

• is a 29 kilometre public path needs Imperial. Since this section is so short, why not list the local authorities, wildlife organisations etc?

Fixed. Jezhotwells (talk) 20:13, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

• Tributaries -pointless duplication of Course

Removed. Jezhotwells (talk) 20:13, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

• I made these changes. Please check

I have no quibbles with those. Jezhotwells (talk) 20:13, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

OK, done for now, I'll have another read later Jimfbleak - talk to me? 14:49, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

I think I have addressed your concerns as per above. Jezhotwells (talk) 20:13, 6 December 2009 (UTC)

For Bristolian, I'd be inclined to link to the city, since the alternative would be a one sentence stub Bristolian (person). I've no other concerns, so here we go
