The article is indeed a copyvio. I have removed the material and added hangon. I will try and write a short article soon. - Ravedave 15:06, 1 May 2007 (UTC) reply

As the person who placed the speedy-delete tag, I support Ravedave's effort. I'd remove the speedy delete template, except I'm not quite sure whether I'm allowed to do that or not. Nyttend 15:09, 1 May 2007 (UTC) reply

Since Pike died in 1813, I'm doubtful he headed the group that worked on the fort in 1820. It was probably Leavenworth, but I'll doublecheck. Dale662 ( talk) 21:40, 11 December 2007 (UTC) reply

It was Henry Leavenworth, succeeded in August 1820 by Josiah Snelling. Dale662 ( talk) 21:44, 11 December 2007 (UTC) reply
