Talk:Denny Heck/Archive 1

Additional children?
While speaking to one of my classes, Denny Heck mentioned that he had adopted an African American son, although I do not have any information at the moment regarding his name or age. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Larreh (talk • contribs) 10:56, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

Puget Sound salmon decline
You whom this may concern... we have now reached a point of no return with the closure of salmon fishing in The Great Pacific Northwest. The Tribal fisheries commission  have shut down any harvest for sport fishing. How is that fair when the Boldt Decision allows them to Harvest 50% but what is 50% of nothing that us sports fisherman DO NOT GET? If the general public is shut down why has the Tribe not been stopped as well? We have hit a point in our fisheries that we are in a state of affairs of being federally shut down. If that's true we need to STOP ALL HARVEST when the rules are being broken! NWFshrman (talk) 13:23, 3 May 2016 (UTC)

Lowercase for "lieutenant governor"
Hi, all. It seems I'm edit warring with various well-intentioned editors, who keep changing "17th lieutenant governor of Washington" to "17th Lieutenant Governor of Washington". My reasoning is simply that I'm following the Manual of Style, specifically at WP:JOBTITLES. Since the infobox talks about the 17th one of these "things", it's inappropriate to capitalize the name of the thing. He's just one of the lieutenant governors.

I hope this will make it clearer for future editors (even those who don't read my edit summaries). &mdash; JohnFromPinckney (talk) 12:26, 18 January 2021 (UTC)
 * MOS:JOBTITLES does not mention infoboxes. In the sentence Denny Heck is the lieutenant governor of Washington, it is appropriate to leave the "L" and "G" lower-case. In an officeholder's infobox, which is implemented for the purpose of denoting offices held, the title of "Lieutenant Governor" should be capitalized. KidAd   talk  19:39, 23 January 2021 (UTC)
 * MOS:JOBTITLES does not have to mention infoboxes. The Manual of Style applies anyway, everywhere. The usage here is the same as the example Nixon was the 37th president of the United States given at MOS:JOBTITLES. Capitalizing it here is the "odd formatting choice". &mdash; JohnFromPinckney (talk) 03:51, 24 January 2021 (UTC)
 * In agreement with, concerning the exemption of infoboxes. GoodDay (talk) 01:37, 24 July 2021 (UTC)

I've restored the status quo, while an RFC at MOS:BIO is ongoing, concerning this topic. GoodDay (talk) 01:33, 24 July 2021 (UTC)
