[edit] First Bush transfer of power

First Bush transfer of power (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

An article devoted completely to, I kid you not a colonocopy that GWB had, causing him to transfer power for 2 hours. Hardly worth mentioning in an article on the Bush presidency; not worth having its own article. The Evil Spartan 23:19, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

• Delete Already covered in Acting President of the United States. Mandsford 00:39, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
• Weak keep, Seems somewhat notable, and definitely sourced. (There was a lot more attention paid to this then it deserved, but we are not the press. Abeg92contribs 00:45, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
• Merge this and all like it into List of temporary transfers of power by United States Presidents or similar. Grutness...wha? 01:23, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

  Comment It's only happened three times in history, and it's all covered in the "Acting President of the United States" article. Mandsford 23:43, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

• Delete This is absolutely no historic notability for this even - WP:NOT#NEWS Corpx 02:45, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
• Merge with Acting President of the United States. Three incidents to date don't necessarily merit a separate list but the editors of that page may decide to implement one per WP:SS. --Dhartung | Talk 07:39, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
• Delete, covered elsewhere, not notable on is own. Realkyhick 19:09, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

• Merge into Acting President of the United States and/or George W. Bush. Fairsing 16:05, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
