George Draper Dayton (March 6, 1857 – February 18, 1938) came to the U.S. state of Minnesota from New York in 1883.

The above is not a proper opening sentence for a Wikipedia article. It doesn't say whether he was noted for being a scientist, an actor, a politician, a preacher, a novelist, a judge, etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.118.123.34 (talk) 16:59, 22 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I read the article, and added the intro sentence. Next time, you can do the same. :-) Empty Buffer (talk) 17:03, 22 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"...he had hoped to become a minister, but was lured by the urge to be in the business world..."

With or without a citation, the above is a silly assertion that reads like simple-minded PR spin. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.127.59.81 (talk) 20:07, 24 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
