I think this article right now needs major work. This is my opinion on how it should flow. Without objection over the next two days, I am going to implement it.

Introduction: Who he is, what he did. Short paragraph.
Early Life. Mention his earliest memories of his father's martyrdom. Travel to Utah.
Utah life. His missions. His other activities. His marriages.
General Authority. Called to serve in first presidency and as an apostle. His positions and accomplishments. Mention contemporary church history.
Church President. Mention historical events - Smoot Hearings, 1904 Manifesto, doctrinal clarifications
Books he authored. (I may be confusing him with Joseph Fielding Smith?)
Family life, connections with other church leaders, number of wives and children.
Quotes.
References: books about him, articles about him, and webpages about him.

Please let me know what you think. Jgardner 18:53, 14 Jun 2005 (UTC)
