Add back gay rumors?[edit]

Now that Kemp is deceased, shall we add back allegations, found in sources: [1][2]? --George Ho (talk) 10:13, 8 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Republican Conference Chairman of the United States House of Representatives in the infobox[edit]

Republican Conference Chairman of the United States House of Representatives does not belong in the infobox. The fact that we can properly source the position does not mean it belongs in the infobox. The position is far less important than being on the Republican Party presidential ticket which consensus has determined does not belong in the infobox.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 02:29, 22 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Republican Conference Chairman of the United States House of Representatives is part of the Republican leadership in the House of Representatives. I noticed that the current chair, Cathy McMorris Rodgers, has an infobox and thought that it would be fitting if Kemp were to also receive one. Previous chairs, including current House Speaker John Boehner and former Vice President Dick Cheney also have the infobox for this position. I understand that you feel that like this position is irrelevant, but it is one of the most important positions in the House. Therefore, I will return it to the way I had it, with Kemp being agknowledged for his service as Republican Conference Chairman of the United States House of Representatives. Please just leave my edit alone.--Count Awesome (talk) 15:50, 23 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
