I also disagree, there is much history to be told about Almaden. My relatives lived and worked there, as did other descendants of the workers there. Often their history is not told, which is something I am hoping to change. I have pay check stubs and the like, as well as census records. I think we

Okay, neat, perhaps this system is working, that a merger gets proposed and then people (howcheng) comes forward with new information. Certainly the new info is helpful for developing the article(s), not sure whether i agree merger is not warranted. But let's talk about the info to add
214:
The town of New Almaden has a history of its own, including the mining. The park's history, current usage, details on trails, wildlife, etc, should be a separate article. The park's Wiki page includes a "See also" link to the "New Almaden"
187: 63: 308: 234:
I disagree with the merger. Although the location of the mines is within the park, there's a lot of history surrounding the mine itself, especially with regards to its land title lawsuit, the

I had started searching by "Castillero" yielding 20 hits, and limited it further by adding "Almaden" to yield just 4 hits. Searching on "New Almaden" instead yields 86 hits, including:

So is the page about the land, a park or a business? I think there should be two separate articles (park and business) that are both located on the same land, just at different times.

i have access to the historical New York Times literature database from 1857 on. Searching on "Castillero and Almaden" yields 4 hits, all relevant for editing this article:
424:
If you ask me, the mine should be the main article and the park should be part of the mine article. Without the original mine, the park really lacks notability.
292:
I am not sure, but is the case referred to a U.S. Supreme Court decision? Among these, does this cover the NYTimes info u referred to? Please comment further.
152: 452: 142: 389:
need to keep this separate to offer a space for information outside of the park itself- where there are very nice people I have met who work there.
