[edit] Re-merging Governor of Maryland and List of Governors of Maryland

I initially merged both articles because this one was rather short and needed a bit more to stand alone. Having a separate page isn't really necessary as this page doesn't have much to begin with.

Someone recently unmerged them, but I feel they should be re-merged. --tomf688^(talk) 01:28, May 10, 2005 (UTC)

I apologize for not leaving a note to explain my action (that's an area I need to work on). I split List of Governors of Maryland from Governor of Maryland because I intended to significantly expand the article on the office. (I have been working slowly on creating and improving articles on the Government of Maryland, and on the state in general.) You'll see that Governor of Maryland is now much longer (and, I hope, better--though still not excellent). I think that it now stands on it's own without tacking on the list, which matches up nicely with the lists that all of the other states have. I think that the list and article on the office ought to remain separate now. By contrast, I agree with combining the list and the article on Lt. Governor of Maryland, since both of them are so much shorter. I hope that this sufficiently explains my action and that you will agree with it. if not, please let me know and I'm sure we can find a way to work it out and to improve the article(s) further.

[edit] Major Changes Underway

I've started the process of re-working and referencing the article in hopes of getting it to be an FA eventually. Any help is welcome. Mocko13 17:58, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
