Talk:E-governance in the United States

Sorry for the misunderstanding guys, this article is an ongoing group project, and we are still learning how to get all of this right. We meant no disrespect by this, and would greatly appreciate not deleting the page as there are sources on the page now, and there is more information and sources to come. All the information is being worked on separately, and we are trying to get it all together. I will be more careful next time, again, my apologies. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Niccox20 (talk • contribs) 06:04, 20 November 2013

Not an encyclopedia entry

This article reads like the authors are making an argument for E-government, not like an encyclopedia entry on it.

"In this growing era of technology we have moved to more electronic ways of performing government tasks or what we would call e-governance. In this transition to e-governance the main focus is to make sure that responsiveness, efficiency, and effectiveness is sustained at a high level."

Who is "we"? Are the authors of this page themselves transitioning the United States to e-governance?

Why "this transition"? Do you have evidence that US government is "transitioning" to e-governance, not just making it an option?

"Eventually E- government will just be government as the use of technology is the norm." This is just speculation. 73.184.127.85 (talk) 23:17, 7 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Needs more references / some text seems to be opinions

I've removed this text

there has been much controversy over the Obama administration's Affordable Care Act. With this piece of legislation, Healthcare.gov was created to provide a source for Americans to buy health insurance. Although this website has been unsuccessful thus far, it is a prime example of how the United States government can relay information as well as provide its services via the internet. Healthcare.gov is made to be a marketplace for healthcare insurance providers. The website offers groundwork for Americans to shop for coverage at lower costs or possibly find undeniable coverage. Depending on the success of the website, it may be one of the most effective, or at least most historic, government technological establishments in American history.^[1]

as it duplicated information about the Affordable Care Act from above, and the reference for it was from 2000, so didn't seem to adequately support statements like "unsuccessful thus far" --Mgp28 (talk) 12:42, 31 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
