Propose move to Robert "Papa Pilgrim" Hale, or alternately, Robert Allen Hale. News coverage of his activities in Alaska gave indication that he was a person of some note prior to moving there. Plus, it appears odd to me that the article would have a title like this, yet it devotes more space to his early life in Texas than his time in Alaska. Judged by number of years, though, that would probably actually make sense.RadioKAOS (talk) 01:54, 28 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I agree and have made the move. Location (talk) 18:35, 6 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Early Life - Major edit of longstanding version by new editor[edit]
Editor NorthBySouthBaranof appears to have less than two months's wikipedia editoe experience when making the decision that the Early Life Section of this article contained unsourced and poorly sourced details and thus was ripe for immediate and major deletions arbitrarily and without a request for discussion here, first. I restored the section to the version before NorthBySouthBaranof "overhauled" it. I would simply like to read specific reasons why NorthBySouthBaranof , especially with such limited editing experience bacck on 17 July, 2013, concluded that the details edited out were unsourced and poorly-sourced. Justifications, please! Ruidoso (talk) 05:23, 12 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]
