It would seem as if those who wish to make known Mr. Attig's many accomplishments would be more willing to see it transformed into a more readable, more appropriate wicki. It is surprising that they are so unwilling to put a pin in this article and let out a little hot air. While on the surface Attig appears to have completed several notable events that may quite possibly be wiki-worthy the tone of the writing, which is grandiose and bombastic is off putting. Perhaps too hard a sell has been made which I would submit is a likely sign that the author was unsure of the articles suitability when it was first presented. The emotional response to requests for a better written, better edited article leads one to wonder if these responders have the needed objectivity. One would expect the Attigites to lead the parade for a succinct article that clearly presents his accomplishments without gilding the lily. Honestly do we need a listing of every job that Attig held? Did Gerald Ford once work at McDonalds? Who cares? Instead of the emotional replies offered thus far it would be time better spent to loose the fluff, explain the confusing parts and then see if the article is still questioned. The current insistence that the article is perfect as is and in no need of improvement leads one to wonder what kool-aid Attig was serving on that boat.
