Re: Clyde J. Wadsworth
Hello,

I reverted your edits because in the citation given, it's states this: In 2014, he successfully argued Hawaii’s marriage equality case, Jackson v. Abercrombie, before the U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. So that's why it's stated that way in the article, if you have something that says otherwise, be sure to cite it.

Hi Snickers: see the Wikipedia article entitled “Same-sex marriage in Hawaii.” It discusses the Jackson v. Abercrombie case in detail and supports my explanation that it was the Hawaii legislature that achieved marriage equality in Hawaii, not the Jackson case. Indeed, the District Court in Jackson rejected marriage equality. The Ninth Circuit on appeal only vacated the District court ruling on mootness grounds in light of the Hawaii legislature’s grant of marriage equality. Jackson did NOT bring marriage equality to Hawaii. The legislature did. Ultimately, the US Supreme Court in Obergefell v. Hodges brought marriage equality to the nation as a whole.

Hello, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that you recently added commentary to an article, Solicitor General of Hawaii. While Wikipedia welcomes editors' opinions on an article and how it could be changed, these comments are more appropriate for the article's accompanying talk page. If you post your comments there, other editors working on the same article will notice and respond to them, and your comments will not disrupt the flow of the article. However, keep in mind that even on the talk page of an article, you should limit your discussion to improving the article. Article talk pages are not the place to discuss opinions of the subject of articles, nor are such pages a forum. Thank you. Sea Cow (talk) 03:33, 17 January 2022 (UTC)
