Must there be undefined controversy in the lead paragraph, which may be self-promoting the book reference noted. This could be better defined in the Monument today section. - Athrash | ^Talk 17:12, 18 November 2008 (UTC) reply

Why is there a hint of controversy in the opening paragraph that is never explained? Crappy article. [unsigned by IP72.83.182.192, 27 June 2009]

Agree, this unexplained edit does not belong in the Lead because it is not discussed or explained elsewhere in the Article. I've reworded for npov and moved to the Monument today section, pertaining to the National Park Service.  JGHowes  ^talk 23:23, 27 June 2009 (UTC) reply
