Copyright problem
This article has been reverted by a bot to as part of a large-scale clean-up project of multiple article copyright infringement. (See the investigation subpage) This has been done to remove User:Accotink2's contributions as they have a history of extensive copyright violation and so it is assumed that all of their major contributions are copyright violations. Earlier text must not be restored, unless it can be verified to be free of infringement. For legal reasons, Wikipedia cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions must be deleted. Contributors may use sources as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences or phrases. Accordingly, the material may be rewritten, but only if it does not infringe on the copyright of the original or plagiarize from that source. Please see our guideline on non-free text for how to properly implement limited quotations of copyrighted text. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously.

birthday
the infobox and the leading paragraph show different DOBs — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.202.114.76 (talk) 06:18, 31 December 2013 (UTC)

The birthdate was changed in Nov 2013 by a throwaway to Sept 29th from Sept 25th. The two references in the article that provide a birthdate differ between these two dates. It is unclear which one is correct - the 29th comes from the LA Times obituary, while the 25th comes from the Academy of Achievement biography. Wiseprincebambi (talk) 05:12, 25 September 2014 (UTC)

New content
MacCready was a very interesting guy. This page is good but I believe there is a lot more to add. I’d like to do that in the coming weeks. If there is anything that anybody else would like me to add, please leave links here.330highflyer (talk) 12:06, 12 May 2018 (UTC)
