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

I delisted this as a good article because of my concerns about the geology information. This article cited a source that quoted a specific rate of right-lateral slip along the Rodgers Creek Fault, but gave the right-lateral slip rate as an uplift. The geology is a poor conception of the geology of the area and simply cannot be written as it is. Soils are not geology, they are soil, this section should have had the correct geology, and been titled geology and soils, not geology, with soils thrown in. The soil section is much too specific for what a county soil survey actually gives, soil surveys should be reported with knowledge of how the information was obtained and how it relates to the actual soils found in the area. I would like all technical references for this article to be checked for accuracy, and all articles that use these sources or this description of the geolgy of this area to be verified and reworded. The level of the geology appears to be original research, rather than an accurate report from geological papers of the area. KP Botany 04:01, 20 April 2007 (UTC)
The above editor also removed the following sourced material ( Wetman 04:12, 20 April 2007 (UTC)):
I don't think the article provides enough information on the location of the Preserve. Sonoma Mountain covers a lot of territory. What are the Preserve's coordinates? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Stepheng3 ( talk • contribs) 01:26, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
