Lacking information on historiography
This article lacks information on historiography - a key issue, since whether or not there was such a thing as a "Progressive Moment", and if so what it was, has been a long-running debate. Eldomtom2 (talk) 18:02, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
Why does someone have to pander to a wife beating, Black slave castrating, child raping criminal to be progressive in America?
Am I blocked yet for talking about the truth? Losers. 67.188.130.163 (talk) 19:46, 12 July 2024 (UTC)
- Jefferson? Or who are you referring to? 2600:1702:1C60:8AB0:E04E:3A0F:27CB:7665 (talk) 22:15, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
Revising the timeline
The article states that the Era was from 1901 to 1929, but multiple sources give a broader range for the starting dates.[1][2][3][4] I would be in favor of changing it to be from the 1890s to 1920s to account for this. Throughthemind (talk) 09:44, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
- I agree. I was thinking of changing the timeline to "1890s to 1920s" which I think would be more accurate, as there no exact dates as to when the Progressive Era started and ended. I'm not sure what other editors think but I'd be happy to do that if I can find supporting references. Zictor23 (talk) 19:36, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
Wickersham to Taft August 23, 1912
A user came on IRC channel #wikipedia-en-help to ask about the two cites to 'Record' in the section Template:Tq. I did a little investigating and discovered these seemingly ambiguous cites were added by Template:U with this edit and copied to History of United States antitrust law in a subsequent edit.
I thought maybe this might be referring to the Congressional Record of the United States. I downloaded the PDF of the volume covering this period from Template:Plain and looked through the relevant period of time and did not find this message from then Attorney General Wickersham to President Taft - also the page numbers didn't fit - so there must be some other document that a more thorough citation would refer to. — jmcgnh(talk) (contribs) 05:05, 20 November 2024 (UTC)
About the timeline
I was thinking that it might be worth changing the timeline to "1890s to 1920s" which I think would be more accurate, as there no exact dates as to when the Progressive Era started and ended. I'm not sure what other editors think. Zictor23 (talk) 19:38, 29 November 2024 (UTC)
