– No indication that the 15-sentence entry for the American botanist from 200 years ago portrays a historical figure of such overriding notability as to completely overshadow the legacy of music publisher William H. Oakes and Scottish footballer William "Will" Oakes. — Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 07:22, 11 August 2020 (UTC)
