Hello all! I am John Pople's grandaughter, Kimberly, and I was completely amazed to find that my grandad was on this webpage! I heard about this page and came here just typing in random things and found this page! I often underestimated my grandad's celebrity and think that it's great that people are so interested in his work. I wish that this page would have more about my grandfather's personal life though, because he was very devoted to his wife and family and they were so much a part of his life. Maybe just a little more bio kind of things. I could certainly put this on, but didn't know if it was appropriate to this site. If anyone could let me know, I would be very appreciative. Thanks so much!
Surely you are welcome to write something of Prof. Pople; others will modify it if they find it not appropriate for Wikipedia. Powermac 05:26, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Here may be something wrong
He moved to the United States of America in the early 1960s, where he lived the rest of his life, though he retained British citizenship. He received his B. A. (in 1946) and doctorate (in 1951)
John moved to America in the early 1960s, and lived there until die but He received his B. A. (in 1946) and doctorate (in 1951)?--Snowyowls 14:03, 17 July 2005 (UTC)

I think the statement that John Pople was banned by Gaussian needs evidence. I do not believe it is strictly correct, but I do not have evidence. Also I am not sure that PPP was his first major contribution. I thought stuff on NMR was. --Bduke 23:09, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
- I removed that statement. It's a bit unusual of a statement to make without sources. --HappyCamper 13:36, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
