this site doesnt tell you what forms ON THE BOUNDARIES....PUT something on that

some more general info is needed

For what I remember from my studies the general term for conservative plate margins is "strike-slip", while "transform" applies specifically to discontinuities that apparently dislocate two segments of oceanic ridge. In these inner segments the reciprocal motion of the walls (adjacent plates) creates a friction and seismic activity, while in the outer segments the walls belong to the same plate and show no reciprocal movement.

[edit] Merge Proposal

This article ought to be merged with the Transform fault article. Tmangray (talk) 18:58, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Support, with the feeling that the fault article name should survive. Cheers Geologyguy (talk) 19:01, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
Yes, agreed. Now where does one find the "merge" notice template to post on the relevant pages? Tmangray (talk) 21:33, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
Here. Cheers Geologyguy (talk) 21:46, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for that. I see that they allow "boldness". I think I'll try that first and see what happens. Looking at this article here, I don't see much that isn't mostly duplicative. Therefore, I will "boldly" make a redirect to the other article, leaving it up to anyone out there who wants to cut and paste material from this article that they think belongs over at the other article.
