Talk:Harry E. Claiborne

Date error

Clearly there is a date error here when it says :

"To bolster the point Claiborne's lawyer, Oscar Goodman, produced a surprise witness, Ellen Arthur, who said in an affidavit submitted on September 23, 2016 that while she was working for Wright she received an envelope from Ahlstrom containing tax papers from Claiborne. However, Arthur's affidavit did not say that she opened the envelope nor that she saw what was in it.[11]"

This trial ended in 1986, so 2016 makes no sense. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2604:2000:1382:84e6:e934:1c4f:1cbb:ab69 (talk • contribs) 19:03, 28 July 2019 (UTC)

Marriages

Start and end dates for each wife would be useful, as well as why the marriage ended (divorced, died, annulled, etc.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C3:E284:900:F120:6586:B3DD:42D1 (talk) 08:03, 12 May 2020 (UTC)

Bot-created subpage

A temporary subpage at User:Polbot/fjc/Harry E. Claiborne was automatically created by a perl script, based on this article at the Biographical Directory of Federal Judges. The subpage should either be merged into this article, or moved and disambiguated. Polbot (talk) 17:34, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

Roll-call votes

There should be a roll-call vote on the motion to adopt H.Res 461 in the United States House of Representatives, and I want to keep the roll-call vote on how they voted to remove Claiborne from office in the Senate trial. Here’s the Senate vote to bring that up.

WP:NOTEVERYTHING - "Information should not be included in this encyclopedia solely because it is true or useful. A Wikipedia article should not be a complete exposition of all possible details, but a summary of accepted knowledge regarding its subject."

This is way more detail than is needed in this article. Ttwaring (talk) 21:32, 11 September 2023 (UTC)

Agreed; way more detail than needs to be in a biographical article covering Claiborne's whole life story. Drdpw (talk) 21:38, 11 September 2023 (UTC)

I concur that the table is relevant and should be included. IndyNotes (talk) 02:32, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
