differently. In addition, when you can avoid using parentheses without making a horrible or overly long name, I think you should go for it. I think that this practice may be encouraged in the naming conventions somewhere, but I am not certain. If you want to get a response from me, please leave a message at my talk page rather than here. Thanks,
303:. The US Board on Geographic Names convention for geographic names is to leave out the apostrophe, (no possessive forms are allowed). I created a redirect so people typing the bolded words above will get here. I didn't want to move the article unexpectedly. Does the community think it's okay to move this or is the consensus to leave it as is? 251:
This article says the surf spot was named after the dog called Maverick. Therefore being Maverick's, the apostrophe s noting ownership. Yet the article title has no apostrophe. If the correct title is with the apostrophe then the article should be renamed correctly. A cleanup of links pointing to

According to the article "Maverick's BC (before Clark)" in the magazine "Surfer's Path", Jeff Clark did not discover Mavericks alone. A man named the wave after his dog and George Moore (deceased) was one of the first surfers on that wave. According to statements made by George, Jeff Clark was there

This article does not identify who "Matienzo" ("...white-haired German Shepherd named Maverick, owned by a roommate of Matienzo. Maverick was used to swimming out with his owner, or with Matienzo, while they were out surfing.") or "Dean" ("Finding the conditions too unsafe for the dog, Dean paddled

Since the surf spot is personified by the surf contest results, I plan on cleaning up the current popularity section by adding bullet points or similar. While I work on a format I thought I should declare intent in case there are questions concerns. In its current state, adding additional contest
376:
I can find no verifiable basis for the supposed controversy in the "Surfer's path" magazine archives. The all caps ranting on about it on the Sept 18, 2008 revision seems to be opposing the proposition that Jeff Clark discovered it alone and rode it alone for 15 years. This is something nobody is
225:
The mention of the reference to Mavericks in Zoolander (which was recently removed) does belong in the article because it shows the extent that the name "Mavericks" has become known. The scene is about 2/3rds of the way through the movie when Ben Stiller's character hides out at Owen Wilson's
495:
One reason for the move is that adding a comma and the name of a state is pretty standard on Knowledge (XXG) when dealing with locations. I am more familiar with the practice when dealing with towns and cities, but I do not see a good reason for locations without populations to be treated
491:
I think that the move from "Mavericks (location)" to "Mavericks, California" is kind of no brainer, but I always want to cover the possibility that it is me who has no brain. Therefore, if anyone has a problem with the move, please let me know, and I will move the article back.
748:) shorebird population. The unintended consequences of expanding access was to increase the popularity of the surfing location, bringing many people to the site, which in turn, destroyed the habitat and scared the birds away. This kind of history needs to be included. 318:
I had to look this up - finding, that, as I remember - it was just called MIRIMAR in the late 50's and early 60's. A group of us surfed the inside numerous times and outside only a couple - deemed too nasty with the rock bottom chewing up wipe out boards.
452:
What is the reasoning for the needless quotes around 'wipe out' and 'leash' in the Mark Foo section? I mean, really, a leash is a leash. That is what its called. Reading the current version makes it sound like Dr. Evil is explaining surfing to us.

I've been doing some research on this area for a related article. According to the historical documents that I'm looking at, the name of this article should be "Mavericks Beach" not "Mavericks, California".

for the year 2012-2013. I have included the results from the latter site because it appears to be the official one, but someone who knows the real order should check and fix this if necessary.

At the WWDC, Apple announced their new version of their computer operating system was named after this place. I would expect an increase in attention on this article in the coming days.

Through the article there are numerous dates given as the "first" time Mavericks was ridden or discovered. None of them seem to agree with each other. This needs to be resolved somehow.

Titans of Mavericks is listed as the official website of Mavericks but when you follow the link to their web page, it says they are not affiliated with the Mavericks surf contest.
