Donald J. Savoie
Hi Cirppa, I noticed you re-added post-nominal letters for Donald J. Savoie's doctoral degrees to the article about him. You may not realize that WP:POSTNOM (in Wikipedia's manual of style for biographies) indicates that "Post-nominal letters, other than those denoting academic degrees, should be included when they are issued by a country or widely recognizable organization with which the subject has been closely associated." As it is not the practice to include post-nominals for academic degrees in biographies on Wikipedia, I have removed them once again. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to let me know on my talk page or you can open a public discussion on the article's talk page. Cheers, Graham (talk) 19:35, 17 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Having heard no response despite your re-adding the post-nominal letters once again, I have opened a discussion on the article's talk page. If you feel they should be included, please reply at Talk:Donald J. Savoie. Graham (talk) 21:59, 20 November 2015 (UTC)

Not a resume
I deleted an entire section added today of books edited by the subject of the Donald Savoie article. This is the kind of material one might expect to find in a resumé, not an encyclopedia article. I would respectfully suggest that you take a look at the long lists of works and cull them for the most important or resonant ones. Maybe five for each category at most. Then go back and add a shorter edited books section. Thank you for your understanding. Verne Equinox (talk) 02:12, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
