Deletion of Accomplishments Section
The section of the article labeled 'Accomplishments' is clearly not unbiased, and reads like it was written by the Mayor's team. I propose removing the section entirely and moving factual and well sourced info into the 'First Term' section 2603:7000:AA00:20C5:74ED:C1F6:E89B:F2EE (talk) 20:26, 22 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Concur. The section is replete with WP:PUFFERY and WP:SYNTHESIS. Carguychris (talk) 20:54, 22 September 2023 (UTC)
 * The word "accomplishments" should be changed to political career, or something similar that describes the policies the mayor supported. Although I disagree that the whole section should be deleted as most items are sourced. As per modifying the wording, as long as the sources do not directly attribute certain policies to the mayor, then any respective statement should also be worded to reflect the source. Although a lot of the section is also listing the Mayor's position and policies he enacted for different areas. I see it no differently from other U.S. Mayors that enacted policies supporting abortion acess, healthcare policy, addressing homelessness, etc. Furthermore, most of the statements seem to be referencing things the mayor is attributed with enacting, seeking funding, etc. which is not biased.

 * I just realized I was conflating the First Term Section with the statements directly under accomplishments. I rewrote some of the statements and tried to delete biased statements that reference Eric Johnson's own words or policies from his own perspective within articles. Some sources are also opinion pieces. I still disagree with deleting the whole section as it can be rewritten to be unbiased, and should be relabeled with a more neutral section header.

 * Funny how it only became puffery and biased when he announced he was changing his registration to the Republican party.   Before that, I suppose it was just the facts. 67.182.243.39 (talk) 02:22, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Hard concurrence. Why is this NOW "not unbiased?" Curious timing. 2603:6011:C003:1256:1416:35D0:F8DE:F885 (talk) 02:21, 25 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Isn't it possible that the article was always substandard and no one noticed until his party switch led people to his wikipedia a page and notice how flawed it is 2603:7000:AA00:20C5:F9CC:CB5E:5969:B533 (talk) 18:47, 27 September 2023 (UTC)

"Political Party" classification
The page currently claims two political party classifications, for before and after 2023, however no political parties are involved in the nonpartisan election that elected Johnson as Mayor, NOR does the state of Texas offer a choice of political party to enter on one's voter registration, so neither classification has a basis. 192.34.130.57 (talk) 21:13, 25 February 2024 (UTC)
