[edit] Photo
Anyone know if we can put up a photo of Sheldon? There are lots on his web site, but I can't find any kind of policy for using material from his site... which is surprising because TONS of people copy images from his site to illustrate technical questions on bikeforums.net.

- Um, what about the one that's on there now? Just zis Guy you know? 14:54, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
- Did you ask Sheldon if he's okay with that photo being used on here? Moxfyre 16:30, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Organization of Entry
I think it would improve this article to delete the heading "Online" and to replace it with at least two other headings along the lines of: "Encyclopedic Efforts" and "Original Work."
Under the "encyclopedic" heading, Mr. Bown's efforts to develop an on-line resource for bicycle specifications, rare parts, etc. could be described.
Under the "original" heading, Mr. Brown's original contributions to bicycling could be described.
To the extent that much of this was posted online could, of course, be mentioned as appropriate. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.42.245.81 (talk) 15:30, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
