Nickname[edit]

Was his nickname truly "The Wizard Owl"? just seems a bit odd. Do note that I'm not American and that I do not know the entire American history, I was just curious. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.178.161.66 (talk) 16:07, 8 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Section names[edit]

I looked at the style guide, which states:

Section headings should follow all of the guidance for article titles (above), and should be presented in sentence case (Funding of UNESCO projects), not title case (Funding of UNESCO Projects)

I don't think the section names should include the persons name, either.

Member of Constitutional Convention[edit]

I can not find any reference materials that show that Andrew Pickens was a member of the Constitutional Convention. I don't believe he was involved. I would be interested in any reference material that shows that he attended. Otherwise I think the reference in the article should be removed. Rrwoodruff (talk) 21:54, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
