Mind explaining the move? This source and this source and this source and this source and this source and this source and this source and this source and this source to name a few of the 5700+ google hits say Bruce Botelho as it was before you moved the article. The other way gives you 92 google hits. Where he is currently mayor even has it as Botelho and I would hope they would get it correct. Aboutmovies (talk) 20:23, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry I didnt leave a message here. I moved the article in response to an OTRS ticket raised by a local news reporter, but didnt replace all occurrences of the prior name because I wasnt 100% satisfied. Your last link is very convincing. The sources that use Bothelo are also authoritative, and more can be found using the search Bothelo+juneau. I'm at a loss to explain this; feel free to move it back if you are confident. John Vandenberg ^(chat) 20:39, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I just sent an email to the council itself asking which it is. The drop down menu for the mayor was Botelho though. Hopefully they don't think I'm an idiot. Aboutmovies (talk) 20:46, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

They said Botelho, so I'll move it back. You might want to email the newspaper reporter and let them know they might want to check their sources better. Though, mark one for Wikipedia being accurate! Aboutmovies (talk) 21:43, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fantastic; thank you for investigating this. John Vandenberg ^(chat) 03:33, 16 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Birthplace

On the first section, it says he was born in Anchorage, Alaska, then in the 2nd section, it says Juneau, Alaska. Does anyone know for sure?
