Removed note

I removed a reference note from the opening paragraph: A search of the BYU website for "Karl Maeser" generates 658 references, such as "BYU's legacy of success dates back to 1876, when Karl G. Maeser began his term as its first permanent principal" <http://newsnet.byu.edu/story.cfm/43902>

A search engine results list isn't reliable information and doesn't necessarily tell you anything about a person. I cited the information from a different source, but removed this note and link. The link doens't work anyway. Amgisseman(BYU) (talk) 18:44, 25 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Cleanup tag

First paragraph seems to need a bit of copyediting; the bio should be wikified. --Hansnesse 21:21, 17 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Two Grave Markers?

Why are their two grave markers? Did they split his body in half and bury it in two places? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 128.187.80.2 (talk) 16:34, 6 April 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Song to memory

Including the full text of the song to his memory seems to be a bit excessive. -- 159.182.1.4 20:41, 5 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
