[edit] Rudeness of AN(Ger)
So I try translating this article into German and posting it on German Wikipedia. I'll admit, my German is rather rusty, and I had to use a dictionary to translate certain words. So along comes AN(Ger), jumping down my throat about how lousy my article is and summarily deleting it, then removing my link here with a cripey remark. Well, excuuuuse me. Maybe instead of being such a petty little martinet, AN(Ger), you could've edited it and made it better. But, as they say, give small people a small amount of power, and they make a big deal about it. Jeff Fenstermacher 17:28, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Salinger
J. D. Salinger went to Valley Forge Military Academy before he went to Ursinus, not afterwards. He went to VFMA for 11th and 12th grades. He enrolled in New York University as a freshmen, left to travel to Europe, then went to Ursinus, then dropped out and attended night classes at Columbia University. I have, accordingly, removed the section about Salinger attending VFMA after Ursinus, as it's patently false. Salinger's academic history is well documented in Ian Hamilton's literary biography.207.69.137.38 01:03, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
