[edit] San Andreas Fault
Monterey is NOT 2 miles west of the San Andreas Fault... it is many, many miles east. Does anyone have the correct info?
- 26 miles east Anlace 05:33, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
Better late than never - here's a map from the USGS with Monterey and the local faults: http://earthquake.usgs.gov/regional/qfaults/ca/mon.html. Looks like it's mostly in the "Monterey Bay-Tularcitos Fault Zone", and is a fair ways west of the San Andreas. Hope that helps. --209.233.230.181 23:08, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Monterey Seal.jpg
Image:Monterey Seal.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 23:45, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Otter images
A funny thing about that picture of the otters. They are in a position that shows clearly that they are disturbed by the photographer......which is a violation of federal habitat laws. Should this image remain. It may lead people to attempt the same thing.--Amadscientist 08:18, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
