Bioguide does not list a Richard Cutts for Maryland, but does list one for Massachusetts. Paul 05:01, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Be patient

Please don't delete the blue-linked representatives from this article until you have checked to see that the ordinal congresses in which the rep. served and the congressional delegations article from the rep's state link to the new article. In the last few days, twice, a link to an orphan article was deleted. It's easier to check them out from this list before deleting them. Thanks.--Appraiser 02:18, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

  • OK. Sorry.—Markles 11:01, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Status

Is this now a complete list? Are any of the listed states complete? – Quadell (talk) (random) 18:39, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

I am sure the list is not complete. This is a complete list of red links in the "delegations" articles, but many blue links in those articles link to the incorrect person or to a dab page. I will continue to add names to this list as I continue to test each WL in the "ordinal congress" articles. It is an arduous process, but it's worth it, I think.--Appraiser 19:07, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Done?

Are there anymore? LarryQ (talk) 02:38, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

I don't know of any others right now. I've clicked on all the reps in 82% of ordinal congresses, and I expect to finish in the next month or so. But I wouldn't be surprised to find out that there are some who served less than a full term who aren't currently listed in either the delegations articles or the ordinal congresses. Those will be tougher to find. Thanks for all you help creating articles.--Appraiser (talk) 16:35, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
  • You've done a great job, Appraiser. Keep it up. —Markles 17:09, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
  • I agree. I have really enjoyed learning about the men (and a few women) I have started articles about. I am going to miss writing new Congressional bios. Thank you Appraiser for your work on this. It is appreciated. LarryQ (talk) 17:46, 3 February 2008 (UTC)
