Source listings

By numbering the sources with a "#" in front of them someone can insert a source between one of the lines and all the sources from that point on will be thrown off.

I can't waste my time check to see if every source is the proper one everytime someone edits this page. The way I had it the first time made the most sense I think by having a source withe the number being the source. That way there is no way for the number and the source being seperated.

I've added a note at the top of the Sources section, urging that new sources be added only to the bottom of the list. MisfitToys 23:22, Jan 12, 2005 (UTC)

Thanks, that was good thinking! Pitchka 03:48, Jan 13, 2005 (UTC)

From VfD

See Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/List of Republican celebrities for the reasons. This list has all the same faults as that one, including the same worthlessly loose criteria. Tuf-Kat

• Yep, delete this one too. Same reasons as the other list. -R. fiend 20:05, 6 Dec 2004 (UTC)
• Delete: Good heavens! Is this a Hollywood inferiority complex or a hitlist of people whose products one shouldn't support? (Only one group seems to want to burn the CD's of members of the other group. Hmm.) Geogre 20:24, 6 Dec 2004 (UTC)
• Delete Besides, listing someone's presumed political affiliation out of context is just lame: Were they moderate, radical, quasi-independent, rabid? Wyss 22:50, 6 Dec 2004 (UTC)
• Delete poorly-conceived, non-encyclopedic list.. Cdc 00:47, 7 Dec 2004 (UTC)
• Keep. Same reasons as posted for other list. MisfitToys 01:00, Dec 7, 2004 (UTC)
• Keep: I just edited the criteria for inclusion on this list to bring it in line with the revised criteria on List of Republican celebrities--see the VFD page for that article for my reasons why we should keep this article --Szyslak 02:46, 7 Dec 2004 (UTC)
• Delete, unless proof and context is provided. - SimonP 03:26, Dec 7, 2004 (UTC)
• Delete. Lets purge all these lists of republicans and then start again form the beginning if any list over republican celebrities really si necessary. Jeltz 21:16, 2004 Dec 7 (UTC)
• Keep. I think this article is interesting. -- Judson 19:07, 10 Dec 2004 (UTC)
• Keep - There is nothing wrong with the list. -- Crevaner 19:42, 10 Dec 2004 (UTC)
• Keep, notable subject. -- Old Right 19:44, 10 Dec 2004 (UTC)
• Delete Pedant 00:39, 2004 Dec 11 (UTC)
• Delete - garbage. And yes, it'd be garbage if it were a list of Democrats too. Or Libertarians. Or monster raving looneys. -- Cyrius|✎ 00:58, 11 Dec 2004 (UTC)
• KEEP Pitchka 19:17, Dec 11, 2004 (UTC)
• Delete. It's not about Republicans after all, it's about US Republican Party celebrities. Now if it had been about Republican celebrities I might have voted keep. As it is, if it's kept it will need renaming. Noisy | Talk 00:55, Dec 12, 2004 (UTC)

How many of these individuals were members of the Republican Party and how many just happened to be supporters of a particular Republican candidate? Sinatra supported both Democratic and Republican candidates.

Sinatra started out as a Democrat, but after 1968 he switched to the Republicans, attending the RNC for the first time in 1972 and performing at the White House for President Nixon in 1973.
