This article has been checked against the following criteria for B-class status:
The so-called "White Ranch" site, which a user has tried to re-add to this page and others throughout Wikipedia, has been debunked as a deliberate hoax; a paper was published at the Southeastern Archaeological Conference in 2016 exposing the issues with the claims made about the site, and a report was published with the Florida Division of Historical Resources, signed by the archaeologists who published the SEAC paper, stating that the "White Ranch" site does not exist. Boyer's work on the Richardson site (8AL100), which appears to be the genuine site of Soto's Potano and the later mission San Buenaventura de Potano, has been peer-reviewed and published in several venues, and nothing about the "White Ranch" site has ever passed muster with professional archaeologists. Accordingly, I have removed materials concerning the "White Ranch Site" until a peer-reviewed publication contradicting the current data is published, if ever.
