how does Bruchko and interacting with the Motilone Indians relate to language and its acquisition?16:06, 20 June 2007 (UTC)217.21.114.30carz

This article is about a person who has made a substantial impact on entire people groups, on our understanding of language and of tribal peoples, and on the government of Colombia. Unfortunately, it is not written in encyclopedic style, but rather sounds like a personal testimonial. The article deserves work to be done on it.CrimsonLine (talk) 16:14, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I removed the sentence "He is married" from the article. Olson intended to marry Gloria, as stated, but she was killed in a tragic accident shortly before their marriage; according to the Charisma article, he was still unmarried as of 2007. If a more recent source is available, feel free to revoke this edit and cite it. 72.173.176.90 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 01:45, 4 May 2009 (UTC).[reply]
