I'll reject the edit, since I feel like that directly copy-and-pasting texts from a third party source without no credit would lower our class (not pretending that we's special; we pretty much rely on them otherwise). And what if the copied text becomes outdated.
If we lean on other sites for biography, I'd rather write some scripts for extracting the initial 200 characters or such of from specific sites like SEMO or Wikipedia, and then adding [read full story] links to encourage readers to visit the original articles. It'd require some site specific adjustments.
Or we could merge the note and biography, since the biography field has been (and will be) basically underused . I myself often am less than sure where to put some trivial information.
