In order to reflect the official neighborhoods as defined by Portland's Office of Neighborhood Involvement, I think there should be an Old Town Chinatown, Portland, Oregon page. I propose that the Chinatown page be merged into this one, and that it subsequently be renamed to reflect the recognized neighborhood name. (Whether there should be a hyphen before "Chinatown" in the name may be debatable, but since the neighborhood association bylaws don't include it, I don't think we should either.) -- ScottMainwaring 02:34, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
Should this article be moved to "Old Town / Chinatown, Portland, Oregon"? Many sources have the slash included in the name of the neighborhood. -- Another Believer ( Talk) 17:35, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
I'm currently thinking on adding a street names in Chinese section to the Chinatown section of the page just like how they do it on the Chinatown, New York and Chinatown, Toronto pages. However, I'll need some people to go and take pictures of the street names and post it on the page so I can translate it to a translator to figure what Chinese characters are used on the street signs. --Victor x 350 05:16, 26 October 2012 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Victorx350 ( talk • contribs)
Two things are missing from this article. I'd add them, but don't know the best way how to.
:::sigh::: It shouldn't be so easy for a middle-aged, white guy to find fault in an article like this one. -- llywrch ( talk) 00:00, 5 January 2015 (UTC)

Should we fork out pages for the Portland Skidmore/Old Town Historic District and the Portland New Chinatown/Japantown Historic District ( link), and keep this article as a more general overview of the neighborhood? Aren't the NRHP-listed districts inherently notable? Those pages could be more specific and list out individual buildings... that level of detail could never be done in this article. Thoughts? --- Another Believer ( Talk) 00:57, 12 June 2021 (UTC)
