Talk:Robert F. Kennon

Untitled

We really need more sourcing and text on this Louisiana governor. What did he do as governor?John Pack Lambert (talk) 12:59, 17 May 2022 (UTC)

I have expanded the article a little drawing on the Louisiana Secretary of State bio of Kennon. military history fandom has this [1] bio of Kennon with lots of sources, if someone is interested I am sure they can greatly expand the article digging into those sources.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:07, 17 May 2022 (UTC)

Robert F. Kennon sourcing revisted

Robert F. Kennon was governor of Louisiana for 4 years. Our article somehow says nothing about him doing anything as governor in Louisiana. What policies were advanced during his administration? Was he really only a justice before that? There is so much more I am sure could be said.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:02, 17 May 2022 (UTC)

I think the article was previously much longer (the military fandom appears to have a copy of it), but it was deleted because of copyvio issues or something. BeanieFan11 (talk) 14:23, 17 May 2022 (UTC)

Hmm, very odd. I have made it a little longer. I think we need more variety of sources. I am sure there are lots of different sources. I will try and find a few more.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:58, 17 May 2022 (UTC)

• there is this Obituary from the New York Times. [2]. I am sure most Louisian Papers will have his obitary. There should also be articles from his 1948, 1952 and I think 1963 runs for governor. The last one he was elimanted in the first primary, so there might not be as much sourcing.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:02, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
• Here is a Ph.D. disertation on Kennon's time as governor. [3] John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:03, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
• The above was copied from my talk page. I have added information from I believe 3 or 4 sources. The dissertation could be a start. I am not sure if such count as secondary sources.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:10, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
