There are too many capital letters in this article's title, but I'm not really sure how to lower case it. RickK 01:24, 7 Sep 2003 (UTC)
Well, it's worse than that. It's misleading to call it a "dependent deduction" since it's applicable to the taxpayer(s) on the return, too. I don't know if it really even needs its own page. Tax people call this a "personal exemption", so it might be better to use the standard terminology. gbroiles 19:53, 8 Sep 2003 (UTC)
Yes, it's technically a deduction for personal exemption under 26 U.S.C. ยง 151, and applies to the taxpayer, taxpayer's spouse, and dependents. Maybe, as editor gbroiles has implied, the article should be renamed. Stay tuned. Yours, Famspear 17:54, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
OK, I've renamed the article. Famspear 18:04, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
