Talk:Walt Nauta

More info on his military career
I think the article needs more info on his military career. Perhaps this is obvious to Americans but I imagine for many non-Americans it's very unclear how someone could follow Trump after he left the White House if they are still working in the military, and even get paid by a PAC a month before their military career ended. I would guess this most likely means Nauta was in the reserves from at least the end of Trump's presidency, but maybe ex-presidents are allowed to have active duty military personnel as their aides even after their presidency ends (perhaps related to secret service protection). Either way I'm fairly sure I'm not the only one confused by this. Nil Einne (talk) 11:35, 10 June 2023 (UTC)


 * I agree with you. I am American and it's not obvious to me. Pha telegrapher (talk) 16:55, 10 June 2023 (UTC)

 * If I had the information, I would. 89.205.63.101 (talk) 19:32, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Without there being RS information to address Nil's question, I'm unclear how to address Nil's "needs more info" statement. For example, while there is a submarine base in Georgia known as Naval Submarine Base Kings Bay, I am unaware of RS support indicating that that is the base referred to in the article.--2603:7000:2101:AA00:7468:9C4F:BECE:5B21 (talk) 08:52, 24 June 2023 (UTC)

Tone of article
I am not an expert editor. I usually stick to grammar errors or typos. I have read comments along the lines of “reads like a news magazine piece”, and I would comment here that to me this reads almost like a gossip magazine piece. Just my opinion. William.quay (talk) 11:42, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Can you explain what you mean? When I hear a wiki article reads, I'm expecting to see Jennifer_Lopez.
 * As it's written at this point, it seems to me to be entirely encyclopedic and focused on relevant facts. Toddst1 (talk) 13:06, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Agree w/Todd. --2603:7000:2101:AA00:7468:9C4F:BECE:5B21 (talk) 08:50, 24 June 2023 (UTC)

Draft page on his lawyer
I've created and submitted for approval a draft page on his lawyer. See Draft:Stanley Woodward 2603:7000:2101:AA00:602C:68B0:7AF5:B5D4 (talk) 21:02, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
 * It's now been published. --2603:7000:2101:AA00:602C:68B0:7AF5:B5D4 (talk) 22:23, 21 June 2023 (UTC)
 * And it is now at DYK. Though someone deleted half the two-sentence lede most recently. --2603:7000:2101:AA00:7468:9C4F:BECE:5B21 (talk) 08:53, 24 June 2023 (UTC)

Notability?
is this guy really notable? seems like the only claim to notability/notoriety is fact is that he is potentially a co-criminal with someone famous? 67.220.13.96 (talk) 21:36, 7 July 2023 (UTC)


 * That's enough to meet criteria for WP:BIO1E. – Muboshgu (talk) 21:37, 7 July 2023 (UTC)


 * it seems that WP:CRIME says otherwise. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.220.13.96 (talk) 21:40, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
 * I disagree. WP:CRIME says in part The motivation for the crime or the execution of the crime is unusual—or has otherwise been considered noteworthy—such that it is a well-documented historic event. That's met here. Also note that the article was already nominated for deletion - see Articles for deletion/Walt Nauta - and was kept by strong consensus. – Muboshgu (talk) 21:43, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
 * i mean - its not - there are dozens of people who attempt to obstruct justice by hiding evidence every year.
 * neither the crime nor the method of committing the crime are anything astoundingly unusual.
 * the ONLY thing unusual is that the co-accused is the expresident.
 * as a person, nauta is a mere footnote 67.220.13.96 (talk) 23:07, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
