Category
[edit]Hi Yarbrold,
I reverted your addition of Category:Wikipedians collaborating in Sigma Xi to the Sigma Xi article ([1]). Categories for Wikipedians shouldn't normally contain articles, as readers who click on a category in an article are expecting to find related articles. You might be interested in Wikipedia:FAQ/Categorization, which gives further details about categorization.
Cheers and happy editing, Adrian J. Hunter(talk•contribs) 03:28, 13 February 2010 (UTC)

I am with the University of North Dakota (UND) in the School of Geology and Geological Engineering. This photo was part of the archive at Leonard Hall. We are unsure if this is part of the work he did with the US Geological Survey while a professor with the UND or if it is exclusively with UND. Records were not kept to this detail in the early part of the last century. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yarbrold (talk • contribs) 22:51, 27 August 2012 (UTC)

A.G. Leonard
[edit]In the wikipedia entry on A.G. Leonard there is a photograph with the caption, "This is the only known photograph of Dr. A. G. Leonard in existence." In fact, there is a large framed photo of Leonard, as an older man, on the wall in the conference room in Leonard Hall at the University of North Dakota. If you are a local, I will be happy to show it to you. Come to GGE and ask for Dr. RKM. (Just being discreet.) Wait. Are you who I think you are???? I guess you'll know how to reach me. I hear happy reports about your latest endeavors. --R— Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.107.218.73 (talk) 02:57, 9 October 2015 (UTC)
