Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles/American politicians
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I created at Joseph Cilley (senator) page and it is linked to his father Joseph Cilley and corrected the links that I found. I will leave it to someone who is maintaining this list to remove the links and notes when and if they decied to. Good Luck and getting all these written! Marc29th 18:22, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Splitting
It seems to me that this page should be split into subpages. Any objections? – Quadell (talk) (bounties) 13:04, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
I moved the governors to a page for state politicians. I can create a third page for executive branch politicians, if you'd like. Adniel 13:23, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
I was thinking more along the lines of combining Wikipedia:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles/American politicians and Wikipedia:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles/American politicians 2 into a single page with no red-links at all, but only links to sub-pages (vaguely like the Hotlist page, only not divided by letter). The subpages would be Wikipedia:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles/American politicians/Senators, Wikipedia:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles/American politicians/Representatives, Wikipedia:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles/American politicians/Federal judges, Wikipedia:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles/American politicians/Governors, Wikipedia:WikiProject Missing encyclopedic articles/American politicians/Cabinet-level positions, etc. Does this sound like a good idea? It would be useful to me, since I'm only doing Congressmembers, but it would also make the page more manageable, IMHO. – Quadell (talk) (bounties) 14:33, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Starting number
I would appreciate some help finding out how many politicians under each category have been listed thusfar. I did my best guess for the senators looking at the list before it was split, but I would like someone more familiar to help fill in the other info. Thanks! --Reflex Reaction (talk)• 18:41, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
- Well, the Representatives list is not actually complete yet, so it's a tricky situation: many have been done before there's a starting count. What to do? – Quadell (talk) (bounties) 20:28, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
- That's fine, but when the list(s) are complete could you let me know so that I can go back through the logs and estimate a starting value. --Reflex Reaction (talk)• 17:21, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
