Talk:William Overton (Portland founder)

Not a stub
Labeling this article in its current form a stub misunderstands the amount of available material. This article includes a lot more about the man than I thought existed -- possibly all that is known about the man. Well, unless someone digs thru Texas records & finds out what happened to him -- if that is where he went & if he kept the name. Okay, it also leaves out that he is usually called a Mountain Man. William Overton is a mysterious figure known for one notable act -- helping to found Portland, Oregon. -- llywrch (talk) 22:00, 2 February 2016 (UTC)
 * I agree, and have changed the assessments to start-class. If the article really does give "possibly all that is known about the man", then C-class would be appropriate (despite the article's short length), as the current text appears to be well-written and cites good sources for almost everything, but I don't know enough about the subject to be able to judge that myself. But it is certainly better than stub class. SJ Morg (talk) 05:56, 3 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Very much agree. -Pete (talk) 07:21, 3 October 2016 (UTC)
