[edit] United States House of Representatives

This is a self-nomination. -- Emsworth 30 June 2005 22:54 (UTC)

  • Support. As good as the Senate article, recently featured. Minor point: is it just me, or is the pic of the House seal not showing up? If this is corrected, my support stays. Harro5 June 30, 2005 23:23 (UTC)
  • Object-1. not enough on recent history, e.g. Gingrich's reforms to committees (reducing term of committee chairman to 6 years) 2.needs reference to greater partisanship compared with Senate. Deus Ex 30 June 2005 23:34 (UTC)
    • I've added both; if more is needed, please tell me. -- Emsworth
      • I've added some more to the history section about reform, I think the article's fine now. Support. Deus Ex 2 July 2005 10:13 (UTC)
  • Comment - the seal is still missing. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 1 July 2005 00:23 (UTC)
  • Support. If the Senate article went onto FA, then this one can as they're of the same standard. One note: I can see the seal image. Deryck C. 2005-07-01 01:03:20 (UTC)
    • I must confess to using some of the same text from the other article. -- Emsworth 1 July 2005 01:53 (UTC)
  • It might be my browser screwing up, but if yall can see the image, I trust yall. I vote support now. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 1 July 2005 01:39 (UTC)
    • I still can't see the pic either. Emsworth, any idea what's causing this glitch? Is it OK on your browser? Harro5 July 1, 2005 05:48 (UTC)
    • Hmm, it's okay on my browser. I've no idea on why there's a problem. -- Emsworth
      • The image shows up correctly in all my browsers (Mozilla, Camino, Firefox, Safari, Shiiva, all running on Mac OS 10.4). Phils 1 July 2005 10:24 (UTC)
  • Support. Phils 1 July 2005 10:24 (UTC)
  • Support. Up to Emsworth's usual standard. Probably worth linking List of U.S. House committees (a featured list). -- ALoan (Talk) 1 July 2005 11:46 (UTC)
  • Support Emsworth's great article. You should stop putting it through FAC. It will pass anyways. =Nichalp «Talk»= July 1, 2005 18:48 (UTC)
  • Support, with comment It looks good, but perhaps the sections are a tad long. I don't see any way of correcting this, however, without a major re-write. Autopilots July 2, 2005 21:21 (UTC)
