Anyone have any suggestions or plan to help?

For starters, Yarborough was not a senator when the southern manifestos was written in February and March 1956, — Preceding unsigned comment added by Grschott (talk • contribs) 07:09, 13 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know anything about the subject, so I'm not sure I can help much, but the article does not meet the current featured article criteria because it does not have a lead section and does not cite its sources.

Currently I am working to encourage implementation of the goals of the Wikipedia:Verifiability policy for all featued articles. Part of that is to make sure articles cite their sources. This is particularly important for featured articles, since they are a prominent part of Wikipedia. The Fact and Reference Check Project has more information. Thank you, and please leave me a message when a few references have been added to the article. - Taxman 18:34, Apr 22, 2005 (UTC)

G'day there. This little message is about Image:Jamonthelowershelf.jpg an image referenced in this article. All images on wikipedia need to have source information (the creator or publisher) and copyright information (choose a tag). At the moment some of this information is missing, and images like this can be speedily deleted. To keep the image in this article you need to update this information on the image page or try and source a replacement. (Agnte 18:14, 19 November 2005 (UTC))[reply]

Page Protection[edit]

I believe that this page should have some Page Protection, as this article is about a late politician who is a person. A lot of articles about Politicians are Page Protected for good reasons. 70.95.147.247 (talk) 17:42, 31 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
