Aldo Leopold Legacy Trail System is a short, newly-created stub, based purely on WP:PRIMARY sources. I am nominating its merging into this article on the basis of WP:MERGE#Rationale #3 ('Text') & #4 ('Context'). Hrafn Talk Stalk( P) 03:57, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
The Leopold Trail System is named in honor of Leopold. It's connection to Leopold himself is tenuous. Leopold himself is a major intellectual figure of the twentieth century and additions to this currently weak article should not dilute the primary focus on the man's life and ideas. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thomp649 ( talk • contribs) 15:46, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
Yesterday I began what will hopefully be a longterm project: to completely expand and rewrite this article for GA/FA purposes. While I agree I should have made a note of mentioning these plans here on the talk page before starting, I am doing so now. My first edit, in beginning Leopold's biography, was reverted with the edit summary "Stick to Aldo-- we don't need useless details about his relatives". I completely disagree, of course; Leopold's heritage (not to mention the fact that his parents were cousins, an often touchy subject) is an important feature in his major biographies. If it wasn't for his upbringing, after all, he wouldn't have become the impressive man he was. I don't plan to revel in his family's histories, so this short paragraph in question is only to set the scene for what is to come. I will likely be adding more info on Leopold's life and work over the next coming week. BTW, anyone is invited to join in, of course -- Leopold needs a better article on Wiki!

Hi, just in case you are interested I just updated Gaia_hypothesis#Precedents with a quotation from Aldo Leopold. Sadly the book doesn't mention where the text exactly comes from.-- Qgil ( talk) 17:32, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

Per Michael Lannoo, the death section can be greatly expanded with ecologist Robert A. McCabe's book Aldo Leopold: The Professor (1987). Viriditas ( talk) 23:49, 16 June 2024 (UTC)
