Since willard, like most of the men in the party, has no historical importance outside the expedition, wouldn't it make better sense to encapsulate notes like these in the list already at Lewis and Clark expedition, rather than scattering them like this? --Wetman 20:57, 17 Nov 2004 (UTC)

I personally believe that these people have led interesting lives other than the Lewis and Clark expeditition. It might be better to expand the article than to delete it. --Umalee 21:37, 14 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

I agree and have since started adding more detail about his life, there is much not said about his contribution to the expedition that I will add over the coming weeks. Although he may not have played a bigger historical role outside the expedition he does deserve some respect. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nw15062 (talkcontribs) 20:52, 27 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Horribly written article

edit

This is a very poorly written article. For example we mention a connection with Platteville, Wisconsin. Was he in that area when it was part of Michigan Territory, or only after it became part of Wisconsin Territory. We could use better prose about Willard's life before he became part of the Lewis and Clark expedition as well.John Pack Lambert (talk) 21:55, 13 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
