Untitled
[edit]This article lacks references. Also, it needs more dates - when was her daughter born, for instance ?
- On the contrary, such a date would probably have to be removed per the privacy concerns cited at WP:BLP (assuming that her daughter is still alive). Rossami (talk)
- That would say exclude the exact date, but include the year, at least. -- Beardo 00:55, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
Redirect
[edit]I see nothing here to support an independent article. This should be redirected to John George Diefenbaker. To be blunt, the fact that there is a template for Spouses of the Prime Ministers of Canada confuses me. Scanning the articles, I see very few with any independent content.

Peculiar usage
[edit]John considered Olive an asset to his campaign team because of her ability to swoon the voters and remember names.
"Swoon"?!? First of all, "swoon" is an intransitive verb, and therefore never takes a direct object as it does here. Further, it means "pass out" or "faint". I cannot see that it is a proper usage here. Could the writer have meant "swing"? Or perhaps "woo"? I would try asking the writer, but s/he seems to have been active only for a short time about 4½ years ago. Until such time as a better word can be found for "swoon", I have replaced "to swoon" with "with". Kelisi (talk) 21:06, 3 April 2023 (UTC)
