Shouldn't there be an article, or at least a section within this article, on the NTAC? --Orange Mike | Talk 16:44, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
- Sure, why not? Feel free to write an article, or at least, add a section on it to this page. - wolf 19:45, 16 March 2022 (UTC)
Criminal investigation (July 2022)
editPropose to add a section to cover specifically the criminal investigation over missing communications records, since it is likely to develop. Factvalue (talk) 21:19, 21 July 2022 (UTC)
Sourcing needed on "Just Another Rifle"
editLooks like the only references I can see for the custom rifles used by CS teams come from the show "The West Wing" or a nebulous RPG game, I'm not sure this is an actual fact. "Uniform Division technicians assigned to the Counter Sniper (CS) team use custom built .300 Winchester Magnum-chambered bolt-action rifles referred to as JARs ("Just Another Rifle")."

Director
editShouldn't Ronald L. Rowe, Jr. be listed as "Acting" Director in the infobox, since he's second in charge? GamerKlim9716 (talk) 14:56, 23 July 2024 (UTC)
Ranks
editShould we have a section setting out the rank structure in terms? As it stands we have discussion of payscales and career pathways, which uses terms -- "field agent", "journeyman" -- in a way that doesn't make clear if they're formal titles or not. In particular if there's any sort of "rank equivalency" with other agencies -- or indeed their own Uniformed Division, which as that article notes has more standard "police" type ranks -- and there's a suitable source for that, that'd be especially helpful. Otherwise perhaps we should at least note the supervisory titles after "Special Agent" and state explicitly that's the rank structure. 109.255.211.6 (talk) 12:35, 24 July 2024 (UTC)
Attacks on... Secret Service protectees?
editGiven the significance of the assassination attempt on Trump, perhaps we should rescope the "Attacks on..." section to cover everyone with such protection? Wouldn't be a huge increase in volume, and seems equally pertinent to this particular article, as it's about the agency, not the presidency per se. 109.255.211.6 (talk) 05:05, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
