Motivation edit
There doesn't seem to be a good way to link a delta to the river that feeds into it. It would be desirable to be able to link these geographic features. Some items for deltas use part of (P361), but this is not a very precise relationship, and it's not exactly correct to say that a delta is part of a river.
