editI'm not so sure finishing up college in Nebraska qualifies a person as either a true Nebraskan or having "lived for a significant period of time in Nebraska." He's certainly not living there now. He grew up in WY and should be listed on their lists, not here. I'm removing him for this reason. --ScreaminEagle 16:01, 9 August 2006 (UTC)
Why is this called "List of people from Nebraska". There are 2 million of us, but I don't see us all listed. Very ambitious, and erroneous, title. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 139.55.238.165 (talk) 04:37, 23 December 2008 (UTC)
Native Americans
editSeems quite a few of the Native Americans listed aren't really associated with Nebraska. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.31.181.147 (talk) 20:31, 5 June 2010 (UTC)
Brandon Sanderson
editShouldn't Brandon be a part of this list? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.196.25.151 (talk) 16:28, 28 March 2012 (UTC)

Suggested addition
editA prominent person from Nebraska to include in the Business section would be technology entrepreneur Michael J. Saylor, who was born in Lincoln. Suggested bullet point:
- Michael J. Saylor (born 1965), founder and CEO of MicroStrategy
I would myself, but I have a financial COI; Mr. Saylor's firm is a client of my company. Zawl + @Art LaPella: you are the two most recent editors—would one of you be willing to consider making this addition? WWB Too (Talk · COI) 19:58, 1 February 2018 (UTC)
- No takers yet. Sxg169 or Lieutcoluseng, you've both made content contributions here in the not too distant past. Might one of you consider adding Michael J. Saylor to this page (see above)? WWB Too (Talk · COI) 17:26, 6 February 2018 (UTC)
I added Saylor as suggested.Sxg169 (talk) 18:00, 6 February 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks! WWB Too (Talk · COI) 18:10, 6 February 2018 (UTC)
