India/Indian confusion[edit]

Someone more well versed with this dude's work should probably try and seperate out his work for American Indians, and India (Which currently isn't listed, other then saying that he got an award for same.). 68.39.174.238 00:25, 7 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Started in 1988 or 1989?[edit]

Was he elected in Nov 1988 to serve in 1989 or did he actually get sworn in in 1988? Chivista 20:28, 12 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism by 207.156.149.6[edit]

According to User talk:207.156.149.6, IP address 207.156.149.6 is Cold Spring Harbor High School in Cold Spring Harbor, New York.

"Any edits done from this IP address can be any one of the 1000+ 6-12th grade students whom (sic) have full access to Wikipedia from generally unmonitored school terminals."

"Controversial Comments" section[edit]

I removed that section because it seemed to give undue weight to an incident which happened more than a decade ago which has been of little significance to Pallone's Congressional career. I don't necessarily object to the material itself but rather the fact that it took up an entire section of the article. Perhaps it could be reduced and placed back. I also remind users of WP:BLP which might be relevant here.--Jersey Devil 21:24, 26 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject class rating[edit]

This article was automatically assessed because at least one WikiProject had rated the article as start, and the rating on other projects was brought up to start class. BetacommandBot 17:57, 9 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Semiprotection[edit]

There's been a sudden flurry of edits over the past couple of days, all of which have been reverted; I've semi-protected the page for a few days to let it cool off.

The main focus of changes appeared to be on his name - are there any actual sources for this? Shimgray | talk | 18:40, 1 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
