[edit] Mike Gregoire
I've put a merge tag on the Mike Gregoire article which I believe you created... I can't see anything notable about him, being the first "first gentleman" is certainly a first but through no real fault of his own. Does this really make him notable per WP:BIO? A mention on the Christine Gregoire page will suffice. You have first call on merging the info, I'll probably do it in a couple of days if you don't get round to it.

Yes, that's mine. I put the article up because of an empty link in the spouse box on Gov Gregoire's article. It appears to be the plan around here to provide an article for each US state governor's spouse (new layout, you've seen it I'm sure). You can find this on virtually every incumbent governor's article. A few of these have articles.--Mike 08:40, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
"It seems to be the plan" doesn't automatically override the WP:BIO criteria.. He scores 1800 total / 306 unique googles which is low. But I'll see what the other pages are like and if it really is the way forward then fair enough. Deiz 09:14, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
Well, I can't argue that Mr. Gregoire is independently remarkable. For consistency's sake, if he doesn't rate, and other governor spouses don't rate, then the whole raftload of governor spouse redlinks (just saw that term for the first time) should be delinked and let them be relinked on a case-by-case basis by whoever thinks they deserve an article. --Mike 09:21, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
I think you've struck gold with that last idea... the tagging of redlinks on names of people that aren't known to be notable by the tagger is a huge source of cruft (crap) in WP these days, you did really well to research up a page but probably ignore those redlinks if you don't immediately know yourself that a person is actually notable... As a general point this isn't a realm of knowledge I have much / any interest or knowledge in so I probably won't get involved in any consistency mission but it would help. The ideal here is that Mike Gregoire should redirect to Christine Gregoire but is unlinked in the infobox and elsewhere on her page. Deiz 21:08, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Mike G
I've gone all out and redirected Mike to Christine, and delinked his name in her infobox. By all means you could add a little more about him in her article but... nice one Deizio 03:32, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
