Religion quote

I do not see the quote, placed by User:Miunouta as of any significance to this article, nor is it an appropriate article to have such a quote. Having watched the entirety of Walker's announcement speech, I can say this quote is really not representative of his campaign strategy. He isn't running on religion, he is running on his record more than anything. I could find ten quotes in that announcement speech which are better suited. As it stands, a campaign not yet one week old, no quotes are of such magnitude or importance to warrant inclusion. Spartan7W § 17:55, 19 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the more descriptive, more complete, and more appropriate wording. -- Charles Edwin Shipp (talk) 22:13, 11 August 2015 (UTC) -- PS: It look excellent to me.[reply]

Political positions

If e have a section on Political positions, it needs to summarize the related article per WP:SUMMARY. Tagged accordingly. - Cwobeel (talk) 18:32, 20 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I moved the link to Walker's political positions article to the "see also" section and removed the "political positions" header, as the section was empty.--JayJasper (talk) 19:00, 20 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The political positions material that was re-added is not related to the campaign but rather, to his role as governor. Once he starts declaring his political positions in the campaign trail, we can start developing a section. - Cwobeel (talk) 18:17, 21 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I understand that I don't "own" the material, but the political position section was created for this article specifically so that they were in alignment with other presidential candidates, who all have their political positions referenced in their presidential article in some fashion. The Walker (politician) article already had a section. The political position section from the presidential campaign section was removed by another user, and spun it off into its own article, and then another user removed it and said they were merging it back. But it never came from the article it was being merged into. Now there is zero reference to any of Walkers political positions here. The content that was moved over to the Walker(politician) article, was never created for the Scott Walker (politician) article, it came from here.
