Talk:Frank Zeidler

message: I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Zeidler in 1994, when I was a bus operator for the Milwaukee County Transit System-I drove a charter around the city while he conducted a guided tour for residents of an East Side retirement community.  He was (and still is, as I've seen from his occasional TV appearances) well-read, polite, funny, engaging, and passionate about Milwaukee.  He is probably the only person I've ever met that loves Milwaukee more than I do; and spending that morning with him on that tour is a memory I'll always cherish.

:Zeidler was an amazing person-- accomplished, effective, well-liked. This article really does not do justice to him.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.76.134.181 (talk) 01:19, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I loved and cherished the man, and was privileged for over 25 years to call him my comrade and my brother in Christ; but the kinds of things that made him the exemplar of decency he was, have no place in a Wikipedia article. We must maintain our neutral point of view here; and he would certainly understand that. --Orange Mike  |  Talk 13:35, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

message: Rast, Joel. 2006. “Governing the Regimeless City: The Frank Zeidler Administration in Milwaukee, 1948-1960.” Urban Affairs Review 42: 81-112 looks like it might be useful. --Orange Mike  |  Talk 15:11, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Something that should be checked out, but first we need to expand the article with the unused information found in the references. --TIAYN (talk) 18:36, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

message: Could somebody discuss Zeidler's politics about women's access to legal abortions? Was there evolution of his stance? How was his opposition received (locally in Milwaukee and nationally in the SPUSA)?   Kiefer.Wolfowitz 13:18, 22 July 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: He was in a minority within the party, being old-fashioned in his stance on this matter, and most folks just sort of shrugged and said, "Well, that's Frank for you." I don't know how much, if anything, was ever written and published about the matter. --Orange Mike  |  Talk 15:17, 22 July 2011 (UTC)

message: He is in categories "American Christian pacifists" and "American Christian socialists", although the article says nothing about his pacifism or his religion. I am not saying the categories are wrong - they're not - but the article at present does not support them. 216.8.143.171 (talk) 17:31, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I've linked to one of the articles already referenced which talks about his Lutheran beliefs; more could be extracted from his autobiography, but I don't have a copy at hand. --Orange Mike | Talk 17:44, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
