Talk:List of mayors of South Bend, Indiana

Information on the list in regards to terms served

edit

Currently the information is flawed. It assumes the term length as mayor was always 4 years, which is wrong. It was at one point two years. I am searching to find when the term length was extended so that I can correct the table accordingly. SecretName101 (talk) 22:45, 22 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

Just to provide a source confirming that terms were not always 4 years, and used to be 2 years, here is an article from The Observer mentioning that. SecretName101 (talk) 18:53, 28 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

age

Why is the current age / age at death listed? It sounds totally irrelevant because they continue to age after leaving office. If any age should be listed, I imagine that would be the age at taking office the first time? Am I overlooking something? (@SecretName101: ping) effeietsanders 20:45, 17 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

@Effeiets: We do this often in lists of officeholders. I think it provides some bibliographical information. Because where else will you find a compiled list of the dates of birth and death of the holders of these office? SecretName101 (talk) 06:04, 3 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
