A recent edit to this article said that Byron Nelson died earlier today. I looked on Google News and ESPN.com and couldn't find any articles to back that up, so I reverted the edits. Could someone provide a link to a news article about his death, if he has died? -- Idont Havaname ( Talk) 05:29, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
KTCK AM in Dallas is confirming the story at 2:55pm - P1 in Houston

I'll look for reliable sources to cite for this area, but we definitely should add at least a line or two about his strong religious beliefs. In the days after his death, this is the second most commented aspect of his life in the discussions of him that I heard around Dallas, coming after only his fame for golf.

Hello all, I created the Harold "Jug" McSpaden article a while back. In it I included information about McSpaden and Nelson's charity appearances during the war years. At one point I had added a link to that page under the "see also" section of this page, but it's been edited out. If the consensus is that the "see also" link is inappropriate (although I do think it's a good link to include here) then I think the Gold Dust Twins information should be added to the Nelson page directly.

A solid B rating. Probably just need a few more footnotes to back up the info, then expand a little and put up for GA status. Aboutmovies 21:10, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

[?]The picture of the book cannot be used under fair use as a means to display a portret of Byron Nelson. It can only be used if the book is being discussed in this article, and then only in the section where the book is discussed. As such, to retain the GA status, the picture has to go, or something has to be written about the book, and the picture then has to be moved. Er rab ee 16:44, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
This article states that his slow blood clotting was NOT due to hemophilia, and provides one citation. There are other interpretations that he suffered from the MILD form of Hemophilia A (the form of hemophilia that relates to a deficiency in clotting factor VIII) and that the MILD form of the genetic condition could not be reliably diagnosed until the 1970s with the advent of DNA analysis. Please help clarify this part of his profile. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.224.68.200 ( talk) 16:00, 7 August 2014 (UTC)
