Governors of Kentucky

[edit]


The result of over six years of work (on and off), this topic can now be considered a good topic. It includes Governor of Kentucky as a main article, List of Governors of Kentucky as a featured list, and every governor's article – including the two Confederate governors – as either a good or featured article. I hope you will find this topic complete and interesting and will support its nomination for GT. Acdixon (talk contribs count) 13:14, 20 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment I would remove the Confederate governors entirely since they operated a separate government. Those governors could form their own GT. The two topics look like different scopes to me. But I see that others disagree. —Designate (talk) 19:04, 24 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Just to note, the Confederate Gov't already has a subtopic that went through here a while back, so that's already been done. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 04:55, 25 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Why don't you remove the two indented articles and just have "Confederate government (subtopic)" ? (with links, obviously) Ed [talk] [majestic titan]
That works. I've modified the topic as such. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 19:59, 4 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Not sure I follow or agree with your logic that a topic about the governors of Kentucky must necessarily include the lieutenant governor or one about gubernatorial elections. In fact, doing some quick spot checks, I didn't find any states that have general "gubernatorial elections" articles, although there are many articles about specific notable elections. The governor and lieutenant governor weren't even elected on the same ticket until 1992. I really don't see how those articles should be required for this topic.
