I don't mean to be unappreciative, but [1] is somewhat misleading. It's not clear to me that the downspout of a window well is a weeping tile; it may just be a drainpipe. A better picture would show a more typical horizontal weeping tile and it would ideally show the slits that allows water into the weeping tile. Samw 19:51, 22 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Agreed, however I don't have such a picture. Since there was nothing for pictures at all, I posted what I had. As for "more typical", I know that this is the type of weeping tile used in construction across western canada - so it is effectively "typical" at least where I am. -Tinclon 02:27, 25 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I just meant horizontal is more typical. I guess we should expand the article to cover flexible, corrugated weeping tile vs the hardpipe weeping tiles! Samw 03:25, 25 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Needs internationalisation[edit]

This article appears to take a very Canadian (North American?) centric view. This flexible, corrugated, perforated pipe is called Agricultural (Ag) Pipe in Australia, for example. It is used in similar ways (weeping drain around buildings, agricultural land drainage) but details may slightly different due to climate and regulation differences. 122.106.177.130 (talk) 00:58, 3 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
