The Wawona is in rather bad shape, and is in danger of losing its current resting place. Someone may want to do some research into this and update the article from citable sources. -

I agree that it would be good to flesh out the info on this page with more history. As someone who grew up in Kirkland, WA, I remember touring the Wawona as a kid, when she was moored at the Kirkland pier on Lake Washington, but there's no mention of Kirkland moorage on this page.

By all means, continue posting links to any articles you come across; this page may not be anyone's pet project, but passing editors are much more likely to flesh out an article if the sources have already been found. I'll get around to it myself eventually if nobody beats me to it. And, of course, you're free to add the information yourself, though it's important that everything be referenced. Let me know if you'd like help with anything. --

Requested move 28 May 2015
The following is a closed discussion of a
requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a
move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
Support per the stats provided in the nomination. A search on google, google news, or google books confirms that the boat is not a primary here.--

Comment. I have no view on which should be the primary topic, if any. However, if the intent of the proposed change is supported, it should be changed to
Wawona (schooner) as, by convention, the "ship" disambiguator in titles refers to a ship-rigged (ie fully square-rigged) sailing vessel.

Support per Davidships. His point about "ship" versus "schooner" should be followed: we shouldn't ignore a naming convention. Given the hit counts, I don't see a good reason not to consider California at least as significant as the schooner; under the current page names, it's not as if you could end up at California while looking for the schooner article, but you could definitely end up at the schooner when looking for California. No opinion on whether
Wawona should redirect to California or whether it should be a disambiguation page, but it shouldn't be the schooner page's name.

Support move to either ship or schooner (I don't know anything about boats and how they should be named), and replace this with the disambiguation page. The city in California doesn't even get as many hits as the
Wawona Tree. kennethaw88 •
