  • ... that the McLoughlin Promenade (pictured) is on a bluff in Oregon that was occupied by the Molala people thousands of years before the arrival of the settlers of European ancestry? (167 characters)
Source: The bluff, the bank of the Willamette River, Singer Creek, and the foot paths between them were used by native tribes, particularly the Molala, for several thousand years before non-native Americans came west. p. 12

Interesting, on plenty of good sources, no copyvio obvious. The image is licensed but not ideal in small size, - looks like a tree ;) - Please consider if you want to change to more chronology in the article, such as background - the Molala - first, and not 1955 following 2010. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 22:11, 23 April 2017 (UTC)
Gerda Arendt Well, that was a good catch. I moved the Molala up to the first section, right where McLoughlin set aside the land for a park. Thanks for noticing. — Maile (talk) 23:25, 23 April 2017 (UTC)
Gerda Arendt I put an additional image here. It's in the article, and maybe it does look better in reduced size. No trees hogging the visual. — Maile (talk) 23:32, 23 April 2017 (UTC)
Thank you for both, I'd take the second, saw it but had no time to check out small size. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 05:08, 24 April 2017 (UTC)
I eliminated the tree-dominated image, so as to be clear to promoters. — Maile (talk) 11:40, 24 April 2017 (UTC)
