Law and Government Section Update Needed

The Law and Government section of this article needs to be updated to reflect the February, 2015 death of State Auditor Tom Schweich, and subsequent appointment of Nicole Galloway as his successor. I attempted to update the article myself, but ran into technical difficulties. Any assistance from my fellow Wikipedians in resolving this issue would be most appreciated. --TommyBoy (talk) 00:43, 29 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please change 'capitol' to 'capital'. RullRatbwan (talk) 13:16, 29 June 2017 (UTC) RullRatbwan (talk) 13:16, 29 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Not done for now: Presuming you mean the use of "capitol" in the first paragraph of the lede, capitol is correct - the building is in Jefferson City, which is how the article is currently worded. I've no preference on using capitol vs changing the sentence slightly to use capital correctly so if another editor feels strongly about the wording, go nuts Cannolis (talk) 15:51, 29 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

why?

why is this protected, this isn't even an important city? do wikipedians live there? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.171.110.135 (talk) 09:04, 13 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Firstly, it is not a city, it is a state. Secondly, more than six million people live there.
Also it's especially vulnerable to malicious edits as there's a popular tweet about changing the size of the state on the map in this page's infobox which has been floating around the internet since 2015, which is when I belive the semi-protected status was added.

Status Of Mule's Classification Within Being A State Insignia

Currently the mule is listed as Missouri's state mammal, this however is somewhat very wrong to the best of my knowledge and I have primary sources to back! As per RSMo 10.110, "Official animal. — The Missouri Mule, known for its strength, hardiness, intelligence and even temper, is selected for and shall be known as the official animal of the state of Missouri."[1] Note 'animal,' not 'mammal.' This doesn't seem to be some outdated statute either, the Secretary of State's website affirms this claim.[2] I'd like to know if there is a Wikipedia standard that requires the mule to called "state mammal" or if there is some newer piece of a statute nobody knows about. Seems like a simple minor change but just want to make sure; sig: Aramantha 16:43, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The infobox template with the state symbols doesn't support an "Animal" parameter. It probably should have an "Animal" parameter added so that the category follows the statute. There is a "domestic animal" parameter, and an "other" parameter. "Other" is grouped with inanimate insignia, although it contains pawpaws as Missouri's state fruit tree (so that's another problem with the infobox template as it now stands).

"Ozark National Scenic Riverways Quarter" is not the Missouri State Quarter.

The caption of the Ozark National Scenic Riverways Quarter falsely calls it the Missouri State Quarter. The quarter pictured is a 2017 quarter part of the America the beautiful series. [1] What is so perplexing about this is that the actual Missouri State Quarter (minted in 2003) [2] was pictured above in the article, but was instead captioned "Commemorative US quarter featuring the Lewis and Clark expedition".JMM12345 (talk) 01:21, 15 August 2021 (UTC)JMM12345[reply]

Imminent Release of US Census Bureau 2020 Population Centroid​ Determination​

I'm excited to know that the US Census Bureau is about to release its 2020 US Population Centroid location.

I believe that this data release will be notable because it will show an historic slowdown in centroid movement, probably the slowest since the 1910-1920 period as an aging population, ongoing economic difficulties, and the impact of the pandemic work to reduce both the means and reason for Americans to move.

Using a method validated in predicting the location of the 2010 US population center, my estimation for the location of the 2020 centroid is: 37.410844 N; 92.364605 W.

This position is 12.83 miles/20.65 kilometers southwest of the 2010 centroid.

This spot is located in Wright County, MO, about 10 miles southwest of Plato, MO and 13.63 miles northeast of Hartville, MO. It remains closer to Plato than Hartville, but I’m thinking that the Bureau may opt to name Hartville the center given its symbolic name. We’ll see soon.

Judging from past performance, this estimate should be within a mile or two of the official position (that’s the best I can do because I’m working with state-level data). I’ll inform exactly how far off once the Census calculation is released.

Best,
