An entry from Fairfield Osborn Preserve appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know? column on 16 November 2006.

This preserve was probably named for Henry Fairfield Osborn the distinguished geologist or perhaps for his son Henry Fairfield Osborn, Jr the paleontologist and director of AMNH. The article might say which. --Wetman 02:29, 17 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] GA review

This article is close to GA. Prose is ok; sources ok; NPOV ok; seems stable enough; here are some specifics that need attention:

• should solve redlink for "block fault"
  • This link is now blue-linked to the proper article Anlace 23:29, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
• articulate the naming issue
  • An edit has been added to clarify the naming Anlace 03:18, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
• elim some of the redundant links
  • Have started on this. Will finish in the next few days and have some additional detail and references to add to the article. Anlace 03:18, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Covalent, do you want to put this article on hold? I was all set to fail it for my own admittedly highly subjective reference standards, but if you want to review this article yourself i'll not do anything. Homestarmy 22:02, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

I passed this before I noticed this talk page entry as the artilce was not on hold on WP:GAC. I think with the changes already made, it's GA. My suggestions are to: add more web refs so people can see the refs, and add more detail--esp history where something had to have happened btwn 1890-1950 and practical aspects.Rlevse 17:20, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
