2014-07-30, Lemur to MITSFS, history link This spring, a reporter put together an article on MITSFS. Among other things, it talks about some history of the society that I'd never heard before. If anyone's interested, it's at:

 * I don't tag {cn} or delete a birthdate simply because no source is given, and I commonly replicate unsourced birthdates, eg from infobox to lead parentheses. Same for and deaths. Nor do I act upon birth data whose given source is the official website of the biography subject. If I find a birthdate/year at an official website, I do sometimes add it to the article--lead paren, infobox, Persondata, and Categories-- always with explicit source for lead paren or infobox.
