Name change - Move needed
The museum has rebranded to Great Lakes Museum, necessitating a Move (and updates to linked pages, images, etc.) ThatQuailRobert (talk) 14:16, 22 September 2023 (UTC)

Keewatin Museum Ship joining The Great Lakes Museum
Hey all! I'm a volunteer with the Great Lakes Museum and the S.S. Keewatin; as a result, I'm unfortunately unable to update this article, due to my conflict of interest. However, as a volunteer, I'm more than happy to help other Wiki editors bring this article up to spec.

I've noticed the following out of date and/or missing information on the article:

- The lack of any mention mention of the S.S. Keewatin being moved to the Great Lakes Museum, and the Alexander Henry being moved to her home port of Thunder Bay.

- The exhibits; we've been renovating one of the rooms to be an exhibit room for the S.S. Keewatin and her artifacts that are not set up on the ship.

- The Pump Room has been refurbished with some physically operable pump displays.

- The rebranding of the museum to the Great Lakes Museum.

- The website URL has changed to https://greatlakesmuseum.ca/ (though the old link still works as the museum maintains a redirect).

- The museum reopening after 2019; there was significant vandalism (including copper wire thefts) to the museum during its relatively brief period of abandonment after it was repurchased from Patry Inc. The Relocation section should be renamed to "Sale and Repurchase," as the museum was never truly relocated, but moreso left in limbo for a few years.

The article also needs a grammatical cleanup, as the flow of the article felt to be rather rough.

If anyone needs any fact checking and/or help with getting some sources to help with refining this article (or for the S.S. Keewatin herself), don't hesitate to reply here. I can also take any photos that are needed for your edits. Thanks! The Legacy (talk) 02:04, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
