Copyvio Problems[edit]

Did someone from her staff make this? This has been hapenning a lot on Wikipedia lately. If no one else does, I'll fix it when I get the chance... K-UNIT 01:54, 13 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No I am not a member of her staff just from Wisconsin and copy and pasted something from the state website, didn't know the proper format. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bigpland (talk • contribs) 20:01, 21 April 2006 (UTC).[reply]

You cannot simply copy entire articles from other websites into Wikipedia. I'm adding this page to WP:COPYVIO. MiraLuka 05:36, 26 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've also started a new version of the article at Barbara Lawton/Temp, where you are welcome to contribute. MiraLuka 06:10, 26 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Add infobox[edit]

I think it would look professional if it had an infobox to tell about her, like it does for other officials. Thank you, District Attorney 02:06, 7 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

more info needed[edit]

1. What is her maiden name?

2. While the text is correct in stating that she's the first elected LG(WI), some readers might be confused when they see that she was preceded by someone with a feminine name and not realize (at least not right away) that a person can hold the post without having been elected to it. I think this should be indicated, but not in the long-winded way I just did.

3. Perhaps inc. should be spelled out. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 211.225.30.91 (talk) 04:23, 22 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
