[edit] Recommend Deletion of Article
This article should be deleted. I'm sure the blogger who has been finding out all the information on this rumored MTV show in development is correct, but this has not been confirmed by MTV at all and this should be removed until the show is officially announced and more official information is released. The information posted on blogs is ok for blogs, but if you want to write an article for an encyclopedia you need the official information.

Now that it is official and expected to debut this week, 15 August I believe, does anyone know if there are non-MTV articles that can be linked from this page? This article reeks of "insider knowledge" about where they were and were not allowed to film, etc. Perhaps an article or two from OCRegister.com or another legitimate source. --Beach blvd 02:14, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Copyright infringement
The entire "Cast" section appears to have been copied from MTV's Newport Harbor web site. This is copyright infringement - the entire section will have to be rewritten, or else the material will have to be deleted. (Just giving a heads-up.) --Ckatzchatspy 19:50, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
- Similarly, all of the images will need proper "fair use" declarations as they are non-free material. --Ckatzchatspy 19:52, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
- The addition of links to MTV's pages doesn't suffice. If the text is not rewritten, it will have to be removed. The same is true for the images - without a proper fair use declaration, they cannot stay. --Ckatzchatspy 21:05, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
- Twice, I have posted a "rewrite" template and explained the copyright problem - and twice it has been ignored and deleted without comment. The information has been removed as it is a copyright violation. Do not restore it - this is a serious issue for Wikipedia, and violators can and will be blocked. --Ckatzchatspy 03:39, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Spin off
I'm curious about the information being added to this entry about this proposed spin-off to NH in Monarch Beach/Dana Point. Who ever is adding this information could have been making this up completely or it could be completely true. comment added by 70.146.67.252 (talk) 01:37, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
