Talk:Trey Grayson

message: Apparently this man is a member of the government of Kentucky. That's definitely notable enough for inclusion. The article as it stands is a stub in dire need of expansion, not deletion. Aecis Appleknocker Flophouse 21:23, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Initial comments 

message: Should this really be included in the introduction? "He is a former member of the Democratic Party[1], and voted for Bill Clinton in 1992[2] but is currently a member of the Republican Party." Wouldn't it be more succinct to say he is a former Democrat who is seeking the Republican nomination for Senate? The way it is now smacks of a lawn sign planted in a wikipedia page. The Clinton bit should be way lower. Prlinsey (talk) 07:20, 19 December 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The problem isn't just the reference to "other notable Democrats" who switched, it's the whole switch thing in its entirety. From what I can tell, the entire story is that Grayson switched his voter registration from Democratic to Republican back when he was 24. A lot of people - including politicians - have at some stage changed their party registration. That really isn't worthy of being in the introduction; it's pertinent, but only as a small note in the body of the article. If he'd been a member of the Democratic Party and stood as a Democratic candidate, then switched to the Republicans, that would be sufficiently notable to be in the introduction. The information is notable, but doesn't meet the threshold required for it to be retained in the introduction. For these reasons I am moving that information down into the main body of the article, and removing the superfluous references to other prominent party-switchers.

thread_title:  information in introduction 

message: Trey Grayson is a major contender in one of the most heated senate battles in the country, we should include more info on his campaign. I tried to start filling it in and someone deleted what I wrote. I expect this was not an unbiased deletion. Please discuss here before deleting content. Lets work together to make this article more informative. Byates5637 (talk) 16:32, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

message: Lots of anonymous IP users are vandalizing this page, it needs to be semi-protected. Lt.Specht (talk) 01:24, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Article needs to be protected 

message: The photo of Grayson with Bill Clinton is disputed, and I have removed it.  Please do not revert it pending further investigation, thanks. Jusdafax 18:40, 11 December 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Photo with Bill Clinton under dispute 

message: Why is there a dead photo link in this page?  I would gladly remove this photo or try to link it to a photo that exists but evidently the page is protected (albeit with no page protect tag).  Additionally what's the point in adding additional photos to the page when there already is a photo?  While I personally don't care very much one way or the other regarding having multiple photos at least link to something that actually exists.  Nefariousski (talk) 19:45, 25 January 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  update requested 

message: There are many sections on this page that appear as if Trey Greyson himself is writing the article for purposes of self promotion. There is no citation to buffer the claim "Secretary Grayson has been repeatedly and nationally recognized as one of the top new leaders in the United States of America". Another purpoted quote is "Grayson's first term was marked by strong success" with absolutely no citation to idicate the source of this claim. I am making a motion to remove this.
