John Boehner, U.S. House of Representatives speaker main photo

To respect the office of the Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives', his or her photo deserves & needs to be updated to one that is current & recognizable, and it is not!Akg96 (talk) 19:39, 2 April 2013 (UTC) Alan Gerbracht[reply]

Pronunciation of name

Actually, the distinction is between high-german and low-german. His recommended pronunciation is the correct pronunciation in low-german, which is dominant in certain geographical locations and communities.72.179.14.103 (talk) 16:18, 7 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Campaign finance data

I'm working on a WikiProject to add campaign finance information to the pages of US elected officials. This information is available to the public from disclosures, and is strictly factual. Speaker Boehner is one of the officials I'd like to start with for this WikiProject. Before doing so, I'd like to gauge the reaction of other editors, especially given his prominence. Thoughts? Will Hopkins (talk) 23:39, 9 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Seeing no objections, I have added a test table to Speaker Boehner's page. Feedback welcome. Will Hopkins (talk) 02:57, 25 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Maplight is simply a combination of Open Secrets and Govtrack (see their About page), both of which are included in External links to give readers access to the very latest data. Hard-coding data from a particular point in time is misleading. Ballotpedia has done that, immediately before contributions by particular people were made. The casual reader is likely to assume the data is current, and not follow the link. Wikipedia is not Ballotpedia. Flatterworld (talk) 15:35, 26 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
