Merger proposal Comment edit

Hello @Cxbrx: and thank you for pinging me regarding your merge proposal. There is indeed overlap, however I find the direction of the merge proposal to be backwards. The geophysical hot springs were there much longer than the short lived town, and as you say are the reason the short-lived ghost town sprung up there. The springs were used for centuries by the local Indigenous people before being "discovered" by settlers. To my way of thinking, the long-view of place is more appropriate, as the existence of the springs are what is most important and primary. I don't feel that a merger is necessary, however if you are firm about the need for this then the ghost town should be merged into the hot springs article.
