Talk:Kate Brown

message: At some point--I don't feel like looking up the diffs at the moment--Kate Brown, being social media savvy, had some staffers edit her article. As I recall it all worked out OK, but just something to watch out for so anyone with a conflict of interest can be shown how to manage that. Valfontis (talk) 05:03, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, User:Drmies and I were picking out some of the more obvious examples of CoI editing on this article earlier today. There might be more to do. -Kudzu1 (talk) 05:14, 16 February 2015 (UTC)

text: Hmm. Yes, I had that feeling already, though I didn't look at the article history. The best way to counter that is to not just watch but also improve the article. I'll ping , who's been asked to keep an eye on the article with her big, bad admin tool. Thanks Kudzu. Drmies (talk) 05:16, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I saw that, thanks folks. As a side note, under Brown's leadership, the SoS-produced Oregon Blue Book includes links to all the Wikipedia Oregon city articles on its web version, so there may be more State of Oregon interaction with Wikipedia when she becomes governor. Hopefully we can have a productive collaboration. Valfontis (talk) 05:34, 16 February 2015 (UTC)

replies: text: P.S. All the photos by Gary Havorson on the Blue Book website are also uploaded to Commons. Valfontis (talk) 05:43, 16 February 2015 (UTC)

thread_title: Edits by staffers

message: I invite you all to have a look at the article history and the "Controversy" section, which I will keep removing as a BLP violation unless a. it is rewritten to be more than a piece of innuendo and properly incorporated in the article and b. there is consensus on the talk page that it needs to be in. IPs 98.248.145.87 and 12.201.116.58, who I have no doubt are the same person, will be blocked if they persist in re-inserting it, and the article semi-protected if it needs to be. Drmies (talk) 20:32, 18 February 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Since nobody else has said it: the proper way to get something into an article when you are reverted isn't to keep "fighting" by edit warring. It's to come to the Talk page and do what Frmorrison is doing: explain the proposed change and work toward consensus. -Kudzu1 (talk) 02:45, 19 February 2015 (UTC)

text: The New York Times re-reported The Verge's news about the Comcast letter. The Times has won 114 Pulizers, but not The Verge. , The Verge is a reliable source for technology related matters and Comcast is large part of the technology world. Frmorrison (talk) 21:28, 19 February 2015 (UTC)

thread_title:  Gubernatorial tenure 

message: Is she, in name and title, governor of the state or just acting governor? --89.14.6.217 (talk) 09:30, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Governor. Valfontis (talk) 14:52, 20 February 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Acting governor or governor? 

message: She is not first gay or bi governor. What about Jim McGreevey?? After his coming out he was still a governor, so he is the first. M.Karelin (talk) 16:28, 5 May 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: McGreevey didn't identify publicly as bisexual. He came out as gay (making him, yes, the first openly gay or LGBT governor) and then he resigned. -Kudzu1 (talk) 16:34, 5 May 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  She is NOT first 

message: Removed as pov was "Brown has taught at Portland State University, and practiced family and juvenile law. She was a family law attorney with Youth, Rights and Justice (formerly the Juvenile Rights Project), a non-profit corporation in Portland, Oregon, providing legal services to children and families with both defense and advocacy programs."
I can't figure out how it's pov. It needs sourcing but  and  should be sufficient. Doug Weller (talk) 15:38, 2 August 2015 (UTC)
