Image from Space
The image from space is pretty much upside down from the usual north-up orientation - actually north is slightly to the right of straight down. Should we add an arrow or a comment in the caption? Toiyabe 18:46, 19 August 2005 (UTC)


 * I can add a new picture (made with NASA World Wind) which is the correct orientation and is more detailed. I'll upload it shortly. -- Finlay McWalter | Talk 19:02, August 19, 2005 (UTC)


 * Done. Should we use one of these instead of the current image? -- Finlay McWalter | Talk 19:55, August 19, 2005 (UTC)




 * Nice. How 'bout keep the current image from space and add your "Pyramid lake and envrions" shot.  The color and shading in the current image is better, but the environs shot shows the lake in relation to Reno, Nevada, Fernley, Nevada, the Lahontan Reservoir and several other geographic features with their own articles.  Could you put a label in for Reno?  Toiyabe 20:39, 19 August 2005 (UTC)


 * Done (you may need to refresh your cache). I'm not overly happy with the font colour, but I've tried many and everything looks sucky against that kind of background. -- Finlay McWalter |  Talk 18:56, August 21, 2005 (UTC)


 * Excellent! You did spell Fernley wrong, though. Toiyabe 14:39, 22 August 2005 (UTC)


 * D'Oh. Fixed now. -- Finlay McWalter | Talk 15:35, August 22, 2005 (UTC)

Pyramid Lake is Dying
The documentary maker, John Pilger made a documentary about Pyramid Lake and it's Paiute population, called 'Pyramid Lake is Dying'. Would it be worth referencing this in the article? Is it okay to add information about books, documentaries, etc, that are about the same subject as the article, even if the article does not cite from them directly?
