Reince Priebus was nominated as a Social sciences and society good article, but it did not meet the good article criteria at the time (January 9, 2016). There are suggestions on the review page for improving the article. If you can improve it, please do; it may then be renominated.

This article must adhere to the biographies of living persons (BLP) policy, even if it is not a biography, because it contains material about living persons.

What was his early family location?[edit]

The article (as of Jan. 28 2019) says his family moved to Green Bay, Wisconsin when he was 7. But then he graduates from a High School in Kenosha, Wisconsin, which is 140 miles away. Clearly this was not a daily commute. And then he ran for State Senate for a Kenosha-area district. Clearly his family moved from Green Bay, or something displaced him. This should be accounted for. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.26.210.246 (talk) 23:48, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Do we really need to know Mooch's nickname?[edit]

I think this info should be deleted. Beaglemix (talk) 21:14, 28 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Everyone lnows now that Mooch's language is salty and not worthy of inclusion in a serious article Beaglemix (talk) 21:26, 28 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Fired or Resigned?[edit]

The sources are not clear as to whether this was a resignation or a firing. It appears to be a firing. Any thoughts by other editors? Also, use of the term "Reince Penis" seems out of place and unencyclopedic and is probably WP:UNDUE. I am going to remove it. Anyone who disagrees please come here to discuss. Octoberwoodland (talk) 22:46, 28 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Priebus himself just said on CNN that he resigned yesterday. And thx for deleting the nickname Beaglemix (talk) 23:04, 28 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

OK, then I will report it as a resignation. Octoberwoodland (talk) 23:13, 28 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

What is a 'leaker'?[edit]

Yes, anyone following US politics will likely be able to extrapolate, but has 'leaker' really become a label in its own right? Suggest using a more descriptive term or text, or defining 'leaker' in parentheses.

Belay that suggestion! Someone has already made the appropriate edit. Thank you - I like the new text. Sweet.

Done Agreed, it was pretty awkward before. X4n6 (talk) 01:19, 29 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Correct Priebus Chief of Staff end date[edit]

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Even though Priebus resigned on July 27, his last day in office was July 31, overlapping with John Kelly.

See this article showing that Priebus still led the staff meeting on July 31:

Could do with a pronunciation guide for his nickname[edit]

I assume it’s similar to the first part of Reinhard, but...Talltim (talk)|

Or Reinhold!Talltim (talk) 08:45, 13 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The USA Today source article for the pronunciation of his last name also gives "RHINEtz" as how to pronounce his first name. —ADavidB 09:26, 13 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
