message: I went ahead and removed the Ted DeLaney bio from the article. DeLaney's only relationship with Lee Chapel appears to be a fairly vague quote he made about it. While the DeLaney info is interesting, it's irrelevant to include it here. Hathin (talk) 12:55, 30 May 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Please do not remove Ted DeLaney info from this article. It is essential to the article. Ted DeLaney's relationship to the Chapel does not seem to be a fairly vague quote. It IS that he saw the Chapel nearly every day of his life, including when he could not enter because he was Black. He saw the effect on his hometown, community, undergraduate alma mater and academic institution. He saw it as an employee and professor for decades. He toured memorial sites throughout the South and studied and taught about them just steps from the Chapel. He spent more time in the Chapel than most people ever will. He was tasked by the University to study it, teach about it, and make recommendations about its use and meaning. This is all in the source cited. Very few, but all relevant credentials included in this article explain why his expert opinion is included and must be. His quote is not vague, it is direct. It is anything but extraneous to this article, but valuable context and information. Peterwyckham (talk) 06:24, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Concur with removing DeLaney bio info for the reasons given. Please abide by Wiki NPOV. Thank you. 2600:1017:B12E:E83:0:14:EB0D:2501 (talk) 08:48, 22 August 2023 (UTC)

message: Grateful to editor Peterwyckham for catching my mistake and I post here for posterity, the information that activist Robert W. Lee IV who claimed falsely and repeatedly to be Robert E Lee's great-grandson in his anti-Confederate symbol activism until exposed by the Washington Post https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2021/05/14/this-man-says-hes-related-robert-e-lee-theres-no-evidence/ -- is NOT the same as the authentic Robert E Lee IV, who was actually related to General Lee, and who wrote the letter cited on the Lee Chapel page.  He died in 2020.https://www.legacy.com/us/obituaries/washingtonpost/name/robert-lee-obituary?id=2206088
