Talk:Calaveras Fault

message: The introduction should not have technical detail and too much jargon.  Such material belongs in the body of the article.  The intro should be simple, telling the non-specialist reader the most important, basic facts first, such as where it is, geographically and tectonically.
Part of the location info is wrong.  For one thing, there is no such town as "Solano".  If you mean Solano County, the Calaveras does not run there, unless you have new, ref'd information.
The section about seismicity should note that no really large quakes have occurred in historic times on the Calaveras as this is significant when compared to the other major faults in the region.  If there is a geologic record of very large quakes, this can be noted separately. Tmangray 06:56, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Keep Intro Simple, Use Body for Detail

message: The article branches off into discussing other, non-related faults that happen to be nearby. This is apparently to compensate for the fact that there is no high level article describing all the faults (41+) in California. Worse, there is no "Geology of California." Even worse, Geography of California does not have a organized Geology subsection, just little snippets here and there.
The article needs to move irrelevant information to a higher level article or description of these other faults. Student7 (talk) 23:45, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Calaveras Reservoir

message: The article Soil liquefaction mentions the failure of the Calaveras Dam in 1918 (prior to the 1925 date mentioned in this article).  Was there a prior dam, or was than an unrelated dam, or does someone have their dates wrong? Kevink707 (talk) 18:30, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Calaveras Valley

message: A rift valley is produced by a spreading apart of the crust caused by the separation of tectonic plates and vertical (normal) faults,  not the action of a single sliding fault.  Perhaps the Calaveras Valley is a pull-apart basin, similar to a rift, but then it must share responsibility with another fault, perhaps the San Andreas.  We need more info, refs.

message: Posting here to possibly ping anyone who has this page flagged. I'm a student at Cal Poly Pomona and am interested in revising some portions of this article with updated information. Especially in need of revision is the vital information, in the article it mentions Greenwood's death in 1850, but the vital information box has his death at 1873.

message: Robert Aitken (a Buddhist Zen master) has called Christian genuflections "a kind of abbreviated prostration."Aitken (2002).

message: This article needs clarification. Is this either a multi club or a football and volleyball club? 
As a multi club, like Galatasaray S.K. (football), keep a separate article for every sport and volleyball result are not, and should not be, displayed in a football article.
The current category for this article is football club, and the templates used are football templates, the everything else must be removed and located in a separated article. Take CV Universidad de San Martín de Porres, a different article from Club Deportivo Universidad de San Martín de Porres.

Talk:California (province)

message: This article basically reproduces what is already said in the Las Californias article. "Las Californias" is the term I've seen used in Spanish for the territory/province before it's division in 1804 into Alta and Baja California, so I recommend that this article be merged into that article. Both articles do need more specifics, especially on the exact nature of the administration that they had, and the general history, such as the missions (I realize there is a separate article on that, but a quick summary would be in order). When were intendancies established? What was their relation to the Provinicas Internas Commandancy General? Etc. TriniMuñoz (talk) 05:08, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: This is a merge request; not a move. It would be better to combine the articles under this name, where English-speakers are likely to find it; see our guidelines for using English. But that is a matter which doesn't need an admin; just editors. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 19:36, 16 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I merged California (province) into Las Californias, per AjaxSmack's first suggestion. (Sorry for the confusion between move and merge. Do realize some of us are new at this.)  I completely understand, and previously have noted, the English usage policy, but  I still have reservations about the title "California (province)" because it does not properly reflect the name or area of this province. "California (province) implies the current State of California, and not an area that included the two Mexican states to the south (and which for a century and a half, was the only settled part of the Californias). I reviewed the literature a bit, and found that some authors, but not all, such as Bancroft in the last century, simply translated the phrase into English. I followed this in the article, removing all "Las Californias" and replacing it with "the Californias." Others simply maintain a separate discussion for both areas and only use "Baja California" and "Alta California".TriniMuñoz (talk) 20:35, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

Talk:California ballot proposition

message: Currently, the relevant section reads:
First, the state legislature may pass an act which is signed by the governor, proposing a state constitutional amendment, which is then submitted to the voters as a referendum at the next statewide election. If more than 50% of the voters approve the referendum then the constitutional amendment is approved and goes into effect.
Second, the general public may propose via the initiative, either amendments to the state constitution or the creation of new statute laws, which is done by writing a proposed constitutional amendment or statute as a petition, and submitting the petition to the state's Attorney General along with a submission fee (in 2004 this was $200), and obtaining signatures on petitions from registered voters amounting to 8% (for a constitutional amendment) or 5% (for a statute) of the number of people who voted in the most recent election for governor. The signed petitions are then sent to the state's Secretary of State for validation of signatures.
The second point should specify the margin of victory necessary. Does 50% of the electorate pass a constitutional amendment or is a supermajority required?

thread_title: Wiki Education assignment: Health and the Environment in the Central Valley

message: The article asserts in the second paragraph that the Central Valley "provides more than half of the fruits, vegetables, and nuts grown in the United States". It cites a document (item 3 on the list of references) that makes that assertion for California as a whole.  Is that assertion true and needs better support?  Or is it not true and should be corrected?  The assertion seems highly unlikely as there are several other highly productive agricultural areas in California. GauchoBear (talk) 12:56, 25 October 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Share of the nation's agricultural output 

message: added a field to the infobox with label of "California" with value "Northern California, Central California, Southern California". I think this is not helpful for our readers for the following reasons:
* There already is a "location" row with value "California, United States". That is the proper place for the location of a valley.
* Using the label "California" is confusing to our readers. That isn't a standard field in an valley infobox, even for valleys inside of California.
* Listing all three major regions of "Northern California, Central California, Southern California" is uninformative: the infobox just says that California is composed of its three main regions.
Given that the new row is confusing and uninformative, I would propose removing it. — hike395 (talk) 16:25, 31 March 2024 (UTC)

replies: text: All the bias stems directly from the source, Tzvetan Todorov. The principal objection that can be made is that Todorov is anything but a historian (nor does he specialize in 20th century Bulgarian history in particular), so it is questionable that he is a reliable source for these events. It is, however, possible or even likely that one could also find a true historian making similar claims - in this case, it may be that Wikipedia will inevitably have to be biased, like the majority of mainstream sources on the issue.--91.148.159.4 (talk) 22:59, 7 July 2011 (UTC)

Talk:California Coastal Commission

message: While perhaps uncomfortable for those of us who appreciate the Commission's goals and hard work, I think it's essential for balance that some of the many fines, penalties, and blockages imposed by the Commission be listed, even if it's unflattering to the Commission. The actions of an entity are in some ways more enlightening than what their stated mission and processes are. I have started that process of adding some of the reporting in the "Legal Issues" section but the work is ongoing and I'm happy to add additional specificity to any items if there are objections. It might be better in a different and/or expanded format. I certainly don't think this information is silly nor meaningless, especially for the citizens who are being fined millions of dollars and cities having projects halted. We should strive for balance.
