Defaultsort?

What is the rationale for the defaultsort being set to sort to "P" rather than "L"? - {{DEFAULTSORT:Portrait, Lansdowne}} KConWiki (talk) 16:09, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

White house copy?

I do not know why the image of the White House Copy is used, when a just as good image is available of the original at [1]. Alexschmidt711 (talk) 21:02, 14 May 2014 (UTC)

OK, the White House copy is higher resolution. But apart from that, why should we use the copy as the main image, as the original's resolution is good enough? Alexschmidt711 (talk) 21:14, 14 May 2014 (UTC)

Reynolds Foundation

I'm going to change the wording about the Reynolds Foundation "sacrifice". As a charitable organization, The Donald W. Reynolds Foundation exists to give money to causes it deems valuable. So although it may fit the dictionary definition - "to dispose of (goods, property, etc.) regardless of profit" - the word "sacrifice" is, I think, incorrect.
