[edit] Reagan transfer of power
To maintain consistency in policy, since both Bush transfer of powers are being considered for deletion. WatchingYouLikeAHawk 05:17, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
- Keep. Primarily, this was the first invocation of the provision. As the article makes clear, there was an aspect of precedent as arguably the intended use was for extended periods of incapacity. Additionally, this was for an extended procedure, not an examination. I don't think that consistency of policy means consistent treatment of all elements in a related topic. --Dhartung | Talk 05:37, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
- Comment I've been thinking about this issue, and the ones for Bush. I'm wondering if it might be better to mention this in either the article on the 25th Amendment or the president's article??? FrozenPurpleCube 05:47, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
- Delete and move relevant material per FrozenPurpleCube suggestion. Realkyhick 07:26, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
- Merge per FrozenPurpleCube's suggestion. The invocation/revocation letters aren't really necessary, nothing noteworthy happened during the "transition", and the bulk of this article can be summed up in a few lines in Ronald Reagan under his presidency. ɑʀкʏɑɴ 15:03, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
- Delete — Already covered by Acting President of the United States. Bush transfer of power should also be AfD'd. — RJH (talk) 17:41, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
- Merge into Acting President of the United States. --Philip Stevens 19:35, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
- Multimerge, source texts go to wikisource, remaining content goes to Acting President of the United States Night Gyr (talk/Oy) 20:00, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
- Merge into Acting President of the United States and/or Ronald Reagan. Fairsing 16:04, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
- Merge as suggested above. Significant, but not significant enough for it's own article. Mandsford 02:13, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
- Merge. Not really notable out of context; merge into Twenty-fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution and/or Acting President of the United States. Jared (t) 13:52, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
