State of Sequoyah not a state proposal?
You said "a pre-statehood proposed territorial division". Really? That seems to be a very fine distinction. So we have "List of U.S. state partition proposals". Is there a page for "List of U.S. pre-statehood partition proposals"? I suspect not, because it may be too fine a point to differentiate these cases. Is the Sequoyah proposal not serious enough? They wrote a constitution. They voted on it and it passed. But having an idea written about in the Walsenburg World-Independent is ok to include? :--) IMHO a list page is needed where there is a structure to the question but a search does not help find the thing. Doing a search, the results look fairly random and unhelpful and they do not include the Sequoyah proposal on the first page. Finally, does "a state partition" mean "a partition of a state" or "a partition that creates a state". If it is only the first definition, then you are correct that the Sequoyah page does not qualify. But why do you think that only the first definition is correct? I am adding a link to a good, quality page in a page that has problems. It can only improve the page. Is this a bad thing? Does it merit an automatic reversion? Why? RayKiddy (talk) 21:21, 8 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Regarding your question about the meaning "a state partition", the introduction clearly states and explains the scope of the article as "substantive proposals, both successful and unsuccessful, put forward since the nation's founding to partition or set off a portion of an existing U.S. state or states so that the region might either join another state or create a new state". Regarding the broader issues you raise concerning the page, I agree with you that there needs to be some standard for inclusion/exclusion developed, what constitutes a "substantive proposal" to partition a state. Talk to you there. P.S. Please, on all talk pages, place a new discussion topic under existing/older ones. Thanks. Drdpw (talk) 22:14, 8 July 2022 (UTC)

Something odd going on
My instincts tell me that editors Focus on content (who just showed up on Wikipedia today), Tscdrwh & Bluealbion, may well be the same individual. GoodDay (talk) 11:42, 13 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi there, I messaged about this on the page Sockpuppet investigations/Tscdrwh. I did make one revert before knowing this person’s edits was a nuisance on other pages, and then noticed this person made an account nearly identical to my name yesterday (User:Bluea1bion). I’m not involved with these other accounts. Bluealbion (talk) 23:36, 14 July 2022 (UTC)

Historic regions of the United States
Looking at this edit, is "sovereign nation states" the same as "independent entities"? I wasn't making that assumption based on the name alone. Assuming that article is showing the full growth/expansion of the United States, there would need to be a place to include Northern Mariana Islands (and maybe Provisional Government of Oregon). Is there a different section of the page where they'd fit in your mind? Or how would you describe them? –Carter (Tcr25) (talk) 14:06, 19 July 2022 (UTC)

2026 gubernatorial elections
Hello there, I was hoping to ask about this revision to the article on the 2026 United States gubernatorial elections. I'm not sure why the addition is considered "speculation," as the sections on California and Georgia both contain lists of potential candidates, which are still present on the article with attached sources, similar to Alabama's. Should these two be removed as well? Thanks. Kafoxe (talk) 01:59, 4 January 2023 (UTC)

Speaker of the House
The Information is correct and thereby doesn't need a undo KingOfChairs (talk) 16:33, 5 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Your edit was reverted because this detail does not need a mention in the lead, which focuses on the office of speaker alone. Mention it in the article where the the Speaker pro tempore is mentioned. Drdpw (talk) 17:34, 5 January 2023 (UTC)


 * Regarding eligibility of non-members, I was in process of putting together further info when you reverted. Your revert was therefore fine, but I have now inserted that info.&#32;Anythingyouwant (talk) 04:09, 8 January 2023 (UTC)


 * While we're in the same ballpark, both the pro tempore emeritus title held by Chuck Grassley and speaker emerita title held by Nancy Pelosi are honorary titles with no real power. They are proverbial "gold watches" for past presiding members as tokens of appreciation.  Neither is a presiding officer.  You can't mention one without the other as they are both in the same vein, which is why the emeritus section is a fair compromise. Vjlmhds (talk) 04:33, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Grassley was officially given that title by the full Senate.&#32;Anythingyouwant (talk) 04:43, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Strom Thurmond was given the title because Jim Jeffords flipped the senate when he left the GOP, giving the Dems control in the middle of the 197th congress. It is an honorary title with no real power, and is not a presiding officer.  What was done for Pelosi is the same thing.  Neither Grassley nor Pelosi are presiding officers, nor should they be listed as such.  They were both given honorary titles for their past service.  The pro tempore emeritus position has been around longer, and people after Thurmond have since been bestowed the title, but it doesn't make them presiding officers.  Can't acknowledge one and not the other...that's all I'm saying, as it's the same basic idea for each. Vjmlhds (talk) 05:00, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Grassley got the title from the full Senate, whereas Pelosi got the title from a committee of the House Democratic caucus.. So it’s similar but not quite the same.&#32;Anythingyouwant (talk) 05:08, 8 January 2023 (UTC)

Completely missing the point...they are honorary titles, with no power and they are not presiding officers. Getting too hung up on the minutiae and not seeing the big picture (aka forest --> trees). Grassley is NOT a presiding officer in the Senate, and shouldn't be listed as such. His title and Pelosi's mean the exact same - honorary for past accomplishments. Whether they were voted on by the full Senate or just committees don't mean anything. They're honorary titles meant as "lifetime achievement awards" to honor their past positions. Vjmlhds (talk) 05:16, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
 * I think who gives an award is important. I hope my Nobel Prize in Physics will be from the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences rather than from the Nobel Women's Initiative (no offense intended).&#32;Anythingyouwant (talk) 05:23, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
 * I have just removed the emeritus/emerita mention from the page because neither is a considered to be a leadership position by their respective chamber according to their respective website. Drdpw (talk) 05:39, 8 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Now I can live with this. My whole point was that Grassley/Pelosi's status as emeritus were both the same...gold watch/lifetime achievement awards for past service.  Neither is a leadership position, and one isn't more worthy of a mention than the other.  Treat them the same. Vjmlhds (talk) 15:01, 8 January 2023 (UTC)

Ok, but we'll have to be consistent
Howdy, I've no problem with deleting the 'president pro tempore emeritus' from the 118th United States Congress page. But it should be done on the preceding th US Congress pages, too. FWIW, the honorary title was adopted by the US Senate. Where's the 'speaker-emirta' honorary title was not adopted by the US House of Representatives. GoodDay (talk) 06:58, 8 January 2023 (UTC)

PS - I would agree to removing the president pro tempore emeritus bit from the bio infoboxes of Strom Thurmond to Chuck Grassley as well. They're not constitutional offices & as you've accurately put it - they just 'gold watches', basically trivial. GoodDay (talk) 07:10, 8 January 2023 (UTC)

Would be named...
I saw that you reverted an edit saying that we do not mention what storms would be named. If that is true, why don't we remove the section from the 1991 No-Name Storm on the season page? ✶Mitch 199811✶  03:24, 19 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Perhaps that sentence should be removed. There is no would have been named statement in the season articles for the 1997, 2005, 2006 unnamed sub / tropical storms (1987, 1988, 2011, 2013 either). It is not done for depressions either, which go unnamed, or for PTCs when included as other storms. Drdpw (talk) 04:38, 19 January 2023 (UTC)

2023 Speaker of the House election
Now that the List of Speaker of the United States House of Representatives elections has been split off from the too wide original List of speakers, I still have the same question about the 2023 election not displaying "Present" votes as do earlier elections, since we know that six members abstained in this election. The information is found at 2023 Speaker of the United States House of Representatives election, saying "On the fifteenth and final ballot, the six remaining anti-McCarthy holdouts voted "present", which reduced the threshold of votes needed for a majority from 218 to 215 members voting for a person by name, thus allowing McCarthy to be elected with 216 votes." I recognize that's a different article. I haven't checked to see whether all of the preceding "Present" votes listed here in this "List" article are specifically referenced here for this page.

A message from Superb Owl
Hi, can you please engage with me in more good-faith dialogue and back-and-forth of my edits of US Senate and US Supreme Court pages? These reversions you make without providing a reason seem to go against the spirit of the site to open-mindedly follow the facts to collaboratively find the truth. I feel gaslit by the constant reversions. I appreciate the times when you do work on wording in more of a 'yes and' spirit to arrive at an altogether (hopefully) better final product.

Short descriptors
Hello, and I hope all is well. The short descriptor edits I added at the first five U.S. presidents seem to be better than just listing them as presidents. Including 'Founding Father' covers, in two words, a vast amount of the other accomplishments of these men. Washington and the rest of course did much more than serve as early presidents, and adding two words applies both brevity and a condensing descriptor to those other activities. Can we go with it? Thanks. Randy Kryn (talk) 03:37, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Randy Kryn: I am inclined to stick with the standard short description used for all U.S. presidents. An additional descriptor could be added for several of them, but is not (as far as I know). Cheers. Drdpw (talk) 04:46, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * My thought is to then follow up on this. Jefferson, Madison, Washington, Adams, they are all far more than a president as their sole descriptor. Adding 'Founding Father' to, say, Jefferson's short description (Founding Father, third president of the United States), and dropping the unneeded dates, covers his initial unprecedented accomplishments in two words. Keeping later presidents' summaries as is seems fine, including Monroe (who didn't really "make his mark" in the initial founding years), but for the four major founders, it doesn't seem enough, and feels like it's placing too tight of a wording on their overall significance. Please mull this over a bit, thanks. Randy Kryn (talk) 05:18, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
 * An editor has reverted the Adams short descriptor with a good edit summary. Listing just the presidency for these four major founders still seems "off", there should be more (adding the two words "Founding Father" brings a cornucopia of encapsulated accomplishments into play). Randy Kryn (talk) 16:25, 10 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I see; the issue then needs to be discussed on the respective talk pages. Cheers. Drdpw (talk) 16:57, 10 March 2023 (UTC)

Huh?
Regarding This edit, at my count, in the discussion, there were 7 supports (6 under it and one back in the main voting section) and no explicit opposes to that wording. I just copt-pasted it from the discussion. I am flummoxed as to how copying the actual text that had unanimous approval is somehow "misrepresenting" the discussion. Can you elaborate? -- Jayron 32 11:41, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
 * There was Rfc consensus for at least a brief clause in lede but not for a full sentence: "". Your copy-paste edit was of a full sentence, and was simply attached to the end of a paragraph, thus looking like copy-paste add-on. In my subsequent edit, I took mention of the AIDS epidemic and included it within a sentence mentioning other key first term challenges – the assassination attempt, labor union fights, and the war on drugs. Before making the edit I looked at the wording discussion and considered where (and how) mention of the epidemic and the Reagan response fit best in light of the larger Rfc discussion. Hope this brings greater clarity. Drdpw (talk) 13:30, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you. That is fine by me, I just don't appreciate being accused of mischaracterizing something when I merely copy-pasted the consensus version from the discussion.  I have no problems with you improving upon my changes, but in the future, please don't ascribe malfeasance to me (or to others) when you don't know intent.  I misrepresented nothing.  I may have been less than perfect in execution, but I represented the discussion exactly as it happened.  Improvements are welcome, accusations of bad faith are rather not.  But I thank you for explaining your thinking, and I am fine with your improved wording.  -- Jayron 32 13:50, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
 * The added sentence came from a discussion held while the Rfc was ongoing and did not take into account the emerging rough consensus for at least a brief clause in lede but not for a full sentence. In hindsight, stating something along those lines would have been more accurate and certainly more constructive, given that I did not mean to accuse you of malfeasance or of bad faith. Drdpw (talk) 14:15, 23 May 2023 (UTC)

Off-season Atlantic hurricanes
Hey there Drdpw - concerning this edit to off-season Atlantic hurricanes, I was wondering why you removed all of those systems. I originally added them because they exist in the meta data. While they might not have full track maps like official cyclones, they are still listed as tropical/subtropical depressions. Take 1954, for example, where you removed two: you can find both of them here, clearly listed as:

Jan. 27 23N  57W     Subtropical Depression

And later: May 19  41N  31W     Subtropical Depression

Because you already have edited the article since the edit in question, would you mind adding all of the missing systems in HURDAT back in? Thanks! ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 19:52, 3 June 2023 (UTC)

You're wrong. I can cite to the original documents. You can't.
[https://memory.loc.gov/cgi-bin/ampage?collId=llsl&fileName=001/llsl001.db&recNum=196 Judiciary Act of 1789, § 1, 1 Stat. 73 (1789)].
 * 1. Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, The the supreme court of the United States shall consist of a chief justice and five associate justices, any four of whom shall be a quorum, and shall hold annually at the seat of government two sessions, the one commencing the first Monday of February, and the other the first Monday of August. That the associate justices shall have precedence according to the date of their commissions, or when the commissions of two or more of them bear date on the same day, according to their respective ages.

The substance of the above emphasized text is still the law. See 28 U.S. Code, § 4 (2018).

What you are getting twisted is that the justice cannot execute his office until he takes his oath. [https://memory.loc.gov/cgi-bin/ampage?collId=llsl&fileName=001/llsl001.db&recNum=199 Judiciary Act of 1789, § 7, 1 Stat. at 76 (1789)].

Moreover, your confusion about vesting of the office is legally incorrect, as stated by Chief Justice Marshall himself in Marbury v. Madison, :
 * Mr. Marbury, then, since his commission was signed by the President and sealed by the Secretary of State, was appointed, and as the law creating the office gave the officer a right to hold for five years independent of the Executive, the appointment was not revocable, but vested in the officer legal rights which are protected by the laws of his country.
 * To withhold the commission, therefore, is an act deemed by the Court not warranted by law, but violative of a vested legal right.

As the language makes clear, the officeholder's right to the office is what "vests," and that at the moment the Seal of the United States is affixed to the signed judicial commission.

Question about 2023 Atlantic hurricane season
Hey Drdpw. So I noticed that in this edit, you removed the TCR reference from the season effects section. I wanted to ask why you removed it? I thought we were suppose to add the TCR references down in that section? The Weather Event Writer (Talk Page) 19:59, 6 July 2023 (UTC)
 * The long-standing practice has been to only include references when specific fatality number and/or specific damage figures are included in the table for an individual system. Drdpw (talk) 20:08, 6 July 2023 (UTC)

Dora
Just letting you know that I undid your edits re: Dora on the grounds of WP:GOODFAITH and WP:BOLD. We cannot give the article name "Hurricane Dora" to either 1964 or 2023 anymore per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. As this situation is unique, to avoid placing WP:UNDUE weight to both storms in each basin (since the 1964 and 2023 incarnations are the most notable/researched currently and that retirees are usually the PRIMARYTOPIC), was why I had to add the (Atlantic) and (East Pacific) tags to each name.

 * Hah, one of those famous wiki-holes, where you get started on something, and then you notice it everywhere. As you've probably gathered, there are a lot of articles that could use some help. The references are lacking for more recent years, so I'll add a few of those, now that I've noticed it. I always thought that it might be nice having a future FT for all of the retired lists around the world, with the parent topic being Tropical cyclone naming or something. ♫ Hurricanehink ( talk ) 17:34, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

You have a history of edit warring.
Hi Drdpw, you have a history of edit warring. I have never been in an edit war with anyone except for you. It seems like you are in the wrong here. Please ping me if you respond. Alexysun (talk) 16:58, 28 June 2024 (UTC)
