I don't understand why you are editing out a lot of this material. It is important for a full biography of Tilden. Wikipedia is uncensored -- it is not a source of info just for children. Also, some of your info is suspect -- where is the source that he paid frequently for the Algon., for example? DeFord does not mention the second amputation and I can't see it in any pictures. What is your source for that? Even if, for example, you yourself are a Tilden family member you cannot put in information known only to yourself and that is not written in some verifiable spot such as a book, magazine, newspaper, Website, etc. If you can't cite your source for info provided, it's called Original Research and can't be used in Wikipedia. Sorry, but that's the way it is. Hayford Peirce 15:40, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
