Early comment
editdb removed. Should be expanded as soon as possible, like today. DGG 07:34, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
- Not sure what that meant? Maybe that it was up for proposed deletion before any sources were added?
Question of membership
edit- There were only only twenty-eight men who were honored with membership to the group called the Edison Pioneers. Membership in this group represented the highest honor to individuals in the electrical field.
Not sure where that comes from? To me "electrical field" sounds like a pun. The NYT article on the first meeting says there were 37, so will go with the source. W Nowicki (talk) 03:34, 14 January 2011 (UTC)
I think the confusion is from the official organization, and general early associates of Edison (generic sense of Edison pioneers with lower case "p"). So I will split the list into two. One for members who have citations, and another for early associates for whom we need more details. Also will remove Harold Anderson since he is a basketball coach. I did find a Harold Stephen Anderson (1895–1988) who was curator of TAE museum after working for the company after Edison himself was dead. He might deserve an article some day, but was not early enough to be a Pioneer with capital "P". W Nowicki (talk) 21:20, 14 January 2011 (UTC)
