Talk:Isaac Robinson (politician)

Article structure
I want to know your reasoning for making multiple sentence long sections instead of focusing them into more general and longer sections. If you want to make those sections than increase the article size to justify them. - User:Jon698 talk 18:18 1 April
 * Feel free to ping me if you want my input. Directly from my talk page: ..altering precedent based on your opinion is not appropriate justification. I will also note that it is your responsibility to gain consensus on the TP because, as it said in my recent edit summary, your first edit on the Isaac Robinson page was changing the format. I urge you to stop edit warring and gain consensus before moving forward. I would be happy to support an alternative structure if others agree with your changes.

Structure
I would like to propose this article structure for the page.

--Life-- ---Early life--- ---Politics--- ---Death--- --Electoral history--

Here are the major parts:

1. The "Life" and "Electoral history" sections are the only two sections that will serve as headers. The electoral history section will contain no sub-headers as it is specific enough to the information below it. The life header will serve only as a header due to it being too broad and serves to differentiate the information relating to his life from the information relating to his electoral history with all of the information relating to his life falling under the sub-headers. 2. The main parts of his life can be divided between early life, politics, and death. His early life is made up of his birth, education, and early non-political career as they cannot be divided without only being one sentence sections due to a lack of information on Robinson. His politics section would made up of his tenure in the House of Representatives and the elections he participated in. His death section will be focused on its possible attribution to coronavirus and reactions from other politicians to his death. 3. One of the things that leads me to believe this is Article size which states "An article longer than one or two pages when printed should be divided into sections to ease navigation (see Wikipedia:Manual of Style and Wikipedia:Layout for guidance). For most long articles, division into sections is natural anyway. Readers of the mobile version of Wikipedia can be helped by ensuring that sections are not so long or so numerous as to impede navigation." A section shouldn't simply consist of one or two sentences as to prevent unnecessary sections that become too numerous due to their narrow scopes nor should it just be one "life" section that is too broad. - User:Jon698 talk 19:01 1 April


 * As an alternative, my proposal is to keep the article as-is, using three headers.
 * 1. "Early life and education" covers basic bio material and degrees earned.


 * 2. "Career" can be split up into two sub-sections: an unlabeled "early career" and "politics," which covers his tenure in the Michigan House and other information.


 * 3. In lieu of "personal life," "death" could be used as the final header, as it is fairly notable. An earlier version of the article used the more traditional "personal life," and contained death information, but was removed. I'm going to pipe down at this point and wait for some outside opinions.
