Talk:Ernie Fletcher

message: I deleted reference to Impeachment under Executive Imunity and deleted quotation marks.  The citation link no longer works and the quotation impllies bias as it notes impeachment but not other causes for the governors term to end such as resignation or poor health and implied that there was currently an expectation that the governor would be impeached.

message: I removed "When Jim Bunning was re-elected to the Senate in 2004, questions were raised about his age and mental fitness. There are suspicions that if Bunning were to retire in the middle of his term, Fletcher, who has appointment power in that situation, would nominate himself to replace Bunning." 
Suspicions of what he might do in a possible future situation and speculations as to the fitness of another individual for public office - especially without any external source for either - are not appropriate in a biographical article. Holford 23:11, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: So who is the unregistered user who keeps coming on here and violating NPOV? I think if "6/2/05" (signature, anyone?) will examine the history logs there isn't one person, Republican or otherwise, who keeps cleaning up this article. Holford 08:25, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

message: Why would the events of August 23/24, 2006 be labeled as a 'plea deal'?  No plea was entered.  'Agreement to dismiss' is more accurate.
:you're right, it wasn't a plea deal. thanks for correcting it. Anthonymendoza 01:17, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

message: We need an image of Ernie Fletcher for fair use in this article. If anyone can please find a pic and upload it with the correct tag, that would be great. Veracious Rey talk • contribs • review 20:11, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

message: Governor Fletcher issued some very questionable criminal pardons at the end of his term in office.  I think they are at least as significant as some of the things discussed in this article, such as the Cumberlands issues.  That's especially true given Fletcher's controversial use of his pardon power earlier in his term.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.224.111.28 (talk) 20:01, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

message: I am relocating the "Executive orders" section here. As it is, the section includes only one executive order which, in the grand scheme of the events of Fletcher's administration, seems a pretty small issue. The section itself is pretty short; if it is replaced, there should be some discussion of lasing impacts that resulted from the order, if there are any.

message: I see that this article is listed under Wiki Project Creationism/Intelligent design. There is no mention of these issues in the actual article at this point (other than him being listed under Category:Intelligent design advocates. With that in mind, should this article be delisted from that project? 
By the way, a belated congratulations to everyone who worked on this article to get it to GA. The only thing I knew about him prior to reading this was the plane incident on the way to Reagan's funeral, and I found the article interesting and informative. Kansan (talk) 00:15, 11 March 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for the congratulations, and I'm glad you enjoyed the article. As you can see above, while trying to get the article to GA, I found that the bit about his ID advocacy didn't fit well into the overall narrative and was a comparatively minor issue in his term as governor; hence, I moved it to the talk page. I'm inclined to believe that the article doesn't and never did belong in WP:Creationism, since it doesn't seem that Fletcher's belief in ID affected much of anything. I think you'd be safe to remove him from the project, but others may disagree. Acdixon (talk • contribs • iki=wikipedia&lang=en  count) 13:30, 14 March 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Wiki Project Creationism still relevant here? 

message: I just found this article after following the link to it in this week's Signpost. It's impressively comprehensive and well-sourced, and deserves to be a featured article; but I have to ask, what's the point of the 'Ancestors' section at the end? Tables like that are commonly used in articles on members of royal or noble families, where most or all of the ancestors have articles themselves; this is the first time I've seen it in an article on an 'ordinary person' (for lack of a better term), whose ancestors seem to have been entirely unremarkable. Does this table really add any useful information to the article, beyond what's in the 'Early life' section already? Robofish (talk) 14:46, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I've dropped a note to User:Spacini, who has been adding these for Kentucky governors lately. I think it was something he was doing for the Kentucky Historical Society, but I'm not sure about that. Glad you enjoyed the article.  15:22, 22 October 2011 (UTC)
