Z. D. Scott[edit]

  • ... that South Dakota socialist Z. D. Scott moved to Biloxi in the late 1890s to establish what a newspaper column described as a "co-operative colony" and to "live on fish and oysters and dream dreams"?

  • My comment on the blurb is that the reader would naturally assume that the quotes are from Scott. As it seems, it's from a rather satiric newspaper column.--Wehwalt (talk) 23:45, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
  • I would agree with that. Quite a hastily put together blurb, I'll admit. I'll see if I can come up with anything else. – Connormah (talk) 23:58, 19 January 2013 (UTC)
OK, soon as you do, I'll review the article.--Wehwalt (talk) 00:42, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
Source, length, and history all fine. Hook as amended looks OK.--Wehwalt (talk) 06:05, 28 January 2013 (UTC)
