Aside from this article needing to be wikified (I just tagged it as such), the entire article (aside from the first five or six words) are directly copied and pasted from [1]. However, as the site seems to make no attempt at earning money, it's not a "commercial content provider," and as such, the copyvio deletion tag does not apply. I don't know how to tag this page as needing to be altered into uncopied work, but if someone could do so, that'd be awesome. -- Kicking222 18:33, 23 April 2006 (UTC)from which I got most of the information). The bit about Christmas and whatnot are taken from my own personalReply


I cleaned it up. Someone more knowledgeable than I am will need to properly cite my source (I copied the link knowledge, so it's difficult to cite.

Did some more cleanup - fixed spelling errors, removed a POV/irrelevant statement.


Anybody with a picture of mansion instead of what's there now, I'm urging you to put it in, please!!! Soyseñorsnibbles 17:23, 26 August 2007 (UTC)Reply

you are not permitted to take pictures inside of the Executive Mansion. I have personally taken the tour before and they did not tell my group about the apartment behind, yet when you think about it, I don't think that I would like to live in the mansion, but if I was the gov., i would at least live there occasionally. also, it says on the page that he has a 7 year old daugher. i am unsure of the ages, but i know that he has 2, not 1. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.244.188.239 (talk) 05:27, 14 December 2008 (UTC)Reply

Although former Governor Blagojevich has been accused and is confronting justice, words as "embattled" and phrases as "the recently impeached subject of a criminal corruption investigation", doesn't contribute to the article, that's talking about the Mansion. --Juan 15:07, 30 January 2009 (AST)

You have a point. Would you be satisfied with removal of the adjective "embattled"? I think it's pretty obvious to most he was impeached, and if it's not people can go to his article to read more about him or his impeachment. Took that out, then. Seems reasonable to mention Pat Quinn decided he'd move in after Blago's impeachment, so left that. Seem reasonable to all? 24.8.252.164 (talk) 07:55, 2 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
