replies: text: True, probably you can't add that info here. Check my conspiracy wiki page on Thomas Kean for more details. Conwiki 23:48, 22 May 2005 (UTC)

text: I reverted the addition of the conspiracy theorists category. People should not be put into categories which may be controversial. I don't see any evidence in the article text that shows that he is a conspiracy theorist. I suspect it may have had something to do with this text: "On April 4, 2004, Kean stated that the September 11 attacks could have been prevented had the United States government acted sooner to dismantle al-Qaeda and responded more quickly to other terrorist threats.". That's not enough though. --Phroziac (talk) 23:26, 20 August 2005 (UTC)

text: Do you have more information on this to include in the article then? --Phroziac (talk) 23:50, 20 August 2005 (UTC)

text: I also note that Thomas Kean is not "the U.S. government". There is no reason to assume Kean makes a habit of unfolding conspiracy theories. Furthermore, I do not believe the U.S. government's position on the 9/11 attacks is commonly regarded a conspiracy theory with such overwhelming agreement that it justifies labeling Kean a "conspiracy theorist". I ask for credible sources to back up such an assertion. Our own article states "a conspiracy theory is a theory that claims an event or series of events is the result of secret manipulations by two or more individuals or an organization, rather than the result of a single perpetrator or natural occurrence." Under this definition, I doubt any explanation of the 9/11 events that directly holds a terrorist organization responsible qualifies as a "conspiracy", since there isn't anything secret about it.

message: I have undone changes regarding Thomas Kean (the former NJ governor and chair of the 9/11 Commission) that renamed the article to Thomas Kean, Sr. and changed Thomas Kean to a redirect to Tom Kean (disambiguation). While I acknowledge that the father's formal name is Thomas Howard Kean, Sr., he is universally known as Tom Kean or Thomas Kean, without the suffix. A Google search of Kean with Sr. appended shows a comparatively small number of hits compared to searches without the suffix, and a significant number of the Sr. hits are for articles mentioning both father and son and trying to distinguish between the two. The convention of referring to the father as Thomas Kean and the son as Tom Kean Jr., accurately reflects the actual vernacular references to each. As such, renaming the article for the father to Thomas Kean, Sr. is not justified and the change of the original article to a redirect leaves some 150 wikilinks in other articles pointing to a disambiguation page instead of the article.

The Commission will reassemble in Washington on July 22, 2014, for the tenth anniversary of the issuance of its report. It will assess how well the government is performing given current terrorist threats and make recommendations for changes moving forward.http://bipartisanpolicy.org/events/2014/07/911-commission-report-ten-years-later 
Note: it is important that this is added to the page,for the former Governor will play a key role in these upcoming proceedings.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Govhistoryarchivecn (talk • contribs) — Govhistoryarchivecn (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. 
:I disagree that the edit should be made. Wikipedia generally avoids discussion of future events. Exceptions include events such as upcoming national elections and upcoming sporting events such as the Olympics and World Cup, because there is often substantial discussion(beyond simply an announcement of the date) in reliable sources. It isn't even obvious to me that the tenth anniversary event will deserve coverage after it occurs, but of course, that will depend on how extensively it is covered. To include material now would require much more extensive coverage than the provided link, which simply notes the existence of the meeting.--S Philbrick(Talk) 18:50, 14 July 2014 (UTC)
