Talk:Texas Department of Agriculture

Trans dress code
Since no one is actually starting this discussion, I will. Since the original addition was posted, it's been picked up by several national news outlets. It's safe to say notability is satisfied. Snokalok (talk) 18:31, 25 April 2023 (UTC)


 * Hi Snokalok and thanks for starting the discussion. I don’t have an issue with the material, I just don’t think it belongs in this article. I put your edit, word for word, in the Sid Miller article last night. []. Mr. Miller made the rule change and is a polarizing figure with a history of controversies. I believe that attributing the rule change to the “Texas Dept of Agriculture” makes it less meaningful than attributing the rule change to the singular person who unilaterally initiated the controversial policy, Sid Miller. If you look at many of the current sources, they name Sid Miller by name and often in the headline. Just my thoughts, I like this better, but will self-revert if you think the material is better here. Cheers! 2600:1700:1111:5940:D5D1:58A2:576:D99C (talk) 01:07, 26 April 2023 (UTC)
 * I think the material is relevant in both places, personally. It's the policy decision of one man, yes, and thus should be attributed to him, but it's nonetheless carried out and implemented within the department as a whole. While I agree that next to a broad history of the department it may seem disproportionately small, it is nonetheless a notable occurrence and thus I believe merits inclusion.

 * Yeah, I do see it as very minor in the history of the Department and it sticks out in a mostly historical article, but I told you I would self-revert if I did not sway your opinion and I will. 2600:1700:1111:5940:D5D1:58A2:576:D99C (talk) 03:51, 26 April 2023 (UTC)
