Fork out Oregon Iron Company Furnace?

[edit ]

@Esprqii: How do you feel about me taking a stab at forking out content about the furnace to Oregon Iron Company Furnace? The furnace is on the National Register of Historic Places, and therefore inherently notable, and I'd like to see separate articles for the company and the furnace.

Specifically, I propose removing the NRHP infobox, building- and NRHP-related categories, and linking the furnace article in the "Remnants of infrastructure" section. This would not remove any content about the company, nor should this impact the article's Good status. Any thoughts or concerns?

(Side note: The Iron Workers' Cottage also qualifies for a standalone article.) Thanks! ---Another Believer (Talk) 03:00, 20 May 2018 (UTC) [reply ]

No ownership issues on my part so have at it. There didn't seem to be a lot to say about the furnace that didn't talk about it in context of the Iron Company which is why I combined them. There was an extensive rehabilitation of the furnace about 8 years ago which incorporated it into a park and there are some interesting interpretive displays around it now. Good luck! --Esprqii (talk) 03:24, 21 May 2018 (UTC) [reply ]
