[edit] Reversion

I've reverted this edit by 192.43.227.18 (talk • contribs) which made an usourced statement. I'm unsure it is relevant to a biography on Rann anyways.--cj | talk 08:46, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 2006 election

The design is incorrect. and the article should include 2006 election details. —This unsigned comment was added by 130.220.39.52 (talk • contribs) 23:10, 4 April 2006.

The design looks fine to me. The article already has brief 2006 election details, with a link to South Australian legislative election, 2006 Rocksong 23:59, 4 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Family members' links

I've just noticed WP convention to not create pages to children of famous people unless they're famous themselves. I figure the same is true for Rann's current and former wives, therefore I've deleted the links. If for some reason either of them does something notable enough to get a WP page in future, their link can be restored then. Rocksong 06:16, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image

This image is slightly pixelated could someone get a better one?58.84.76.105 09:39, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

With regard to images, I've managed to find one PD photo of Rann online and have uploaded it to Commons: Image:Rann-Zoellick.jpg. It's not a very good depiction, but its the only option we have so far for articles other than this one due to copyright issues – namely our fair use policy.--cj | talk 02:12, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mike Rann Myspace page

Is that myspace page really an official Rann page? The style looks a bit too informal, and even has a copy of a news article (12/3/06) which has the premier's media adviser denying it's by him. I was going to delete it except the link was inserted by a reliable contributor, User:Timeshift9. Unless Timeshift9 can confirm it's offical, I'll delete it. Rocksong 23:27, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

I'm actually waiting on a reply from an email I sent to Rann's electoral office. It's over the holiday period and I don't believe parliament has resumed yet so I don't know when i'll receive an answer, if I do. Timeshift 05:15, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
Take a look at this newspaper scan which is on the page: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v311/lovespree/advertiser060301.jpg It basically says it's unofficial (top of last column). Based on that (one piece of evidence that it's unofficial), I think it should be "guilty until proven innocent" (or to be more precise, "unofficial until proven official"), i.e. delete it until/if you get word that it's official.
