Hi: I notice you've been adding people to Category:Phi Beta Kappa Society. It would be very much appreciated if you could insert a brief (sourced and cited) sentence about these people's memberships into their biographies. Is that possible? Thanks, Ray^Talk 15:15, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your good work on Rob Portman. I made one small tweak to your changes, just so you know. Article looks much better after you got done with it! Tytrain (talk) 19:10, 17 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the compliment, but I have a question about the change you made.

The facts were taken from Portman's site -- Here is the original quote:

"Rob Portman grew up in an Ohio small business family where he learned early on the value of hard work, leadership, and fiscal responsibility. When Rob was young, his dad, Bill Portman, borrowed money to start Portman Equipment Company, where Rob and his brother and sister all worked growing up. His father, and then his brother, built the family business from a small forklift truck dealership with five employees and Rob’s mom as bookkeeper, to one that employed more than 300 people. Rob became a lawyer and developed his own private practice, representing Portman Equipment Company and other small businesses. He knows firsthand the challenges small businesses face"

This was what I put in the article.

Portman, a Methodist, was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, to business owner Bill Portman and his bookkeeper wife, who grew their small equipment dealership to a business employing over 300 workers

Here is your revision:

Portman, a Methodist, was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, to entrepreneur Bill Portman and his wife.

It is not a big deal, but I don't see why brief information about the type and size of his father's business and his mother's occupation should be eliminated. It is common fare in Wiki biographies. --Regards, W E Hill (talk) 22:10, 17 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've opened up a section on the Grayson talk page to discuss the changes I would like to see in the section you reverted. You're welcome to contribute to the discussion. Trilemma (talk) 18:12, 19 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

My comment was a polite way of saying please discuss your interpretation. Trilemma (talk) 18:39, 19 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,
The last I heard the consensus was that red links are a good thing since they encourage the creation of the corresponding article.
Sure, maybe it won't happen this week, but this WP resource will be around indefinitely, will it not? The IMDb has not changed fundamentally in over a decade.
A decade is a lot of time to resolve a red link. And as key articles are finished, people with an urge to write will attack those articles of secondary and tertiary importance. No?

You don't get to delete things about Holdren that are properly sourced just because you don't like them. If you think it's libelous, contribute to Holdren's legal fund. So far, he has not sued anyone for libel so your claims are ludicrous. I'm politely asking you to quit deleting legitimate biographical information from an article and quit attempting to turn a biography into a hagiography. You are in violation of SEVERAL core wikipedia policies and on shaky ground. Plus you should know I'll be adding new information that reveals Holdren's connection to Climategate.69.244.182.135 (talk) 19:37, 26 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
