[edit] Sun Myung Moon reference
The text in question... On 23 March, 2004 Congressman Barlett participated in a weird "coronation ceremony" for the Korean religious figure Sun Myung Moon. It seems that the congressman, like others in attendance had somehow been misled as to the the event's agenda.
Dear Tom- I reverted the 'coronation' but hope I can do it in a friendly way. I do not think it is trivia. (Trivia? His campaign included greeting commuters at exit ramps. That is trivia.) It seems (to me) to be of interest to people in the district and a (small) reflection on the man.
Heck, it is an interesting sidelight that adds some humanity to the guy.
I note you have an objective to improve the MD congressman articles. I humbly and politely propose that this little article helps do that.
(By the way, wouldn't an article on the Byron Dynasty be a good one to have?) [[Paul, in Saudi 15:45, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)]]
- This is an entirely random comment if looking at the article as a whole. Let's reword this a bit to put it into context: "Senator Bartlett attended a church event." You can see that such a reference is very trivial as it is an insignificant point in his political career/life and is not worthy of mention. --tomf688 (talk) 23:58, Mar 13, 2005 (UTC)
[edit] sorry Jeroen94704
I am reverting your edit and request a cite. Sorry for being difficult, but we are having trouble with a vandal around here. Paul, in Saudi 13:05, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
- I assure you, that vandal is not me :). In any case, that quote came from a discussion board, so I'll try and find a better source. Jeroen 09:23, August 11, 2005 (UTC)

- Thank you, sorry for being a Jerk. (The thing is, no matter how silly the quote, it is not at all unlikely Roscoe might have actually said it!) Paul, in Saudi 13:16, 11 August 2005 (UTC)

- No problem. I understand vandalism is annoying Jeroen 13:34, August 11, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Election results table
The columns "Subject" and "Party" seem quite unnecessary - the "Subject" is always "Roscoe Bartlett" (it's on article on him) and the party is always "Republican". The table would be better if these two columns were deleted, yes? John Broughton 20:14, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
The table also neglects the Green Party candidate in 2004, Hemingway 144.175.19.63 23:04, 8 December 2006 (UTC)PT
[edit] C-SPAN
It should be mentioned that he is frequently found on C-SPAN making special speeches in the House, most notably on the issue of oil with his many charts. -Amit, 03/13/07
