All except trailing section wikified to a probably-good-enough level. Wondering whether that closing "West Coast Lumber Trade" section ought to be broken out into a separate article. Tim Bray 08:05, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

It's on display, can someone drop by and get a photo? (er...what's the copyright rules on photo of something on display?) RJFJR 17:00, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

Wikified the last section, reworded to remove dashed and (). Looks like this was copied from http://myron.sjsu.edu/textfiles/ca_thayer.txt which was cached in google but not directly availble Wakemp 01:10, 16 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Is this copyvio?

The text of this article after the intro para looks as if it has been copied in its entirity from http://www.nps.gov/safr/local/thayer.html . I'm not sure what copyright rules cover National Parks Service IPR, do we need to worry about copyvio here?. -- Chris j wood 16:42, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

I've given this article a copy edit. Removed some of the more flowery and not very encyclopedic prose, and hopefully moved it far enough away from the above to no longer be a potential copyvio. I've also broken out the West Coast Lumber Trade section into its own article (West coast lumber trade) as suggested above. -- Chris j wood 19:56, 24 March 2006 (UTC)
