• Delete WP should have articles on gold rush itself, individual historical gold rushes, and gold mining and panning technology. But no reason to combine them all in one article. Kitfoxxe (talk) 05:44, 7 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete I have edited this article in the past, trying to clean it up a bit, but it's probably a hopeless cause. The topic is poorly chosen to begin with, and is essentially a collection of unsourced and off-topic statements. The fact is that there have been many gold rushes through the centuriesco, and each has had different tools and methods. Plazak (talk) 14:29, 9 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
