Jeffords Reference edit

Latest comment: 17 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I've eliminated the Jeffords remark. This has everything to do with Jeffords and almost nothing to do with Prouty. If we quoted everyone who made a controversial decision and justified it with a reference to Winston Prouty, we would have an extremely long, and essentially meaningless article. And it would never end!

Prouty should be the subject of a biography on him, not the object. I could make an exception for someone higher ranking than him, such as a President, Supreme Court Justice, Ambassador, Pope, etc. But even then, the remarks should be more or less contemporaneous with his life.Student7 03:15, 26 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

Analysis of running for Rep in 1950 edit

I added these remarks about his "luck" in running for office. Are they too subjective for an encyclopia? They seem accurate. I don't think they are POV.Student7 21:35, 26 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

A second middle name edit

Latest comment: 15 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I can't believe how long that extra middle name has been there and I didn't catch it. "Forever" it seems. There is no reference outside of Wikipedia or Wapedia references that have that "other" middle name however. If anyone comes up with one, please give a reference/footnote.
