First, don't tell someone they have a "limited knowledge" of anything - you don't know what people know (also comes off like you're some kind of big shot expert talking down to a commoner...not cool).
Second, I was going by what the official White House cabinet site has listed, which is the Office of Science and Technology Director spot.
I'd almost be inclined to think - after reading both the WH site and the Science Policy site - that both spots are in the cabinet.
Biden splitting the jobs has thrown a monkey wrench into things, but there are legit sources that would indicate they should both be in there.

Hi, I thought I should probably explain a bit more about why I've taken to use the circa note for death announcements that don't explicitly include a date. I'd say a good portion of the time, it does turn out to be the date the announcement was made, but certainly not always.
A recent example that sticks out in my mind, because the date of death turned out to be somewhat disputed, was for Richard Shepherd: the original death announcement was made, without a date, on February 21, 2022, so I placed c. February 21 in the article until his obituaries began giving a date of February 19 (the dispute happened when another source gave a death date of February 1 before being corrected to the 19th as a typo). So I don't even like to err on the side of making that assumption, and I just read/source death announcements at face value.--Sunshineisles2 (talk) 18:09, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

Hi there, thanks for your recent edits updating pages after the Laurel Lee resignation. I see that you've added the Florida Secretary of State in the statewide political officials infobox. SOS is one of 20 appointed state agency heads, and the position is not even mentioned in the state constitution. I think adding SOS as the sole appointed executive official the infobox merits further discussion. Starrfruit (talk) 02:50, 18 May 2022 (UTC)

Hi! I want to find some common ground on the Chesa Boudin infocard. So what’s your reason really on editing it to that way. I know you said on the edit it’s because we can use the original article, however before if you clicked “Recalled”, it would take you to the article on the recall and just explained the TBD with a note. No hate, just to see common ground. Bbraxtonlee (talk) 20:28, 13 June 2022 (UTC)

Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! It's clearly no accident on your part after multiple editors have asked for you to implement them more often, and I don't know why you continue to disregard such requests, but please stop this bad habit of yours and start using more edit summaries. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 23:53, 3 September 2022 (UTC)

I want to confirm with you - as a person who studies state government machinery professionally - that Wisconsin's constitution requires the superintendent of public instruction be elected in the manner identical to judges, i.e., by way of a nonpartisan spring election. Wisconsin has elected judges through nonpartisan spring elections since its territorial days, and those practices remain enshrined in its 1848 constitution. The superintendent of public instruction was originally elected on a partisan ballot during the fall election like the other constitutional officers. However, a constitutional amendment was passed in 1902 than switched over to the judicial election methodology (see The Wisconsin Blue Book 1940, pg. 247). What follows are the relevant constitutional provisions:
Article X, Section 1 states, inter alia, "The state superintendent shall be chosen by the qualified electors of the state at the same time and in the same manner as members of the supreme court, and shall hold office for 4 years from the succeeding first Monday in July."
Article VII, Section 4, Subsection (1) also states, inter alia, "Justices shall be elected for 10-year terms of office commencing with the August 1 next succeeding the election."
Finally, Article VII, Section 9 includes the following language, inter alia, "There shall be no election for a justice or judge at the partisan general election for state or county officers, nor within 30 days either before or after such election." Mcvayn (talk) 11:24, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
Look, I don't want to start another editing war, but can you please explain why we shouldn't link the Acting or President pro tempore? It is common practice to do both. The Incumbent tag is already link always, so why wouldn't we link the acting? Bbraxtonlee (talk) 04:00, 13 October 2022 (UTC)
Please stop deleting political offices from the infobox at your whim without first discussing it on the talk page as you did for Ellen Weaver. It's hardly insignificant. See SC Acts A282, R330, H4662. Thanks.Dr. Blazer (talk) 03:04, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
Hmmm seems like a lot of users have been bothered by your edits as well. Now I don't want to escalate this for your sake, but it has been agreed upon by multiple users that the 3 "acting presidents" should be removed since nowhere in the constitution says that the prime minister becomes an acting head of state. The constitution even specifically states that the office should be vacant. Prodrummer619 (talk) 15:45, 4 November 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I noticed that you changed Arizona Attorney General
to Attorney General of Arizona
with the explanation How people talk
.
I understand your point: we often colloquially refer to attorneys general as "Attorney General of...", but in Arizona, like just about every state as far as I can tell, the name of the office is Arizona Attorney General. See the official website as well as [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6].
I simply pulled these out of the News section of a search for "Arizona Attorney General"; a similar search for "Attorney General of Arizona" just shows sources using "Arizona Attorney General". Augusthorsesdroppings10 (talk) 00:18, 30 November 2022 (UTC)

It's about consistency across pages. MN State House districts are subject to redistricting and that can, but doesn't always change the number of a member's district. This leads to confusion on many past member pages with succeeding members and districts.

I see that you did a lot of work on this article in July, and I'm hoping the subject is still fresh enough for you. There is a very clumsy sentence, that's been clumsy for a couple of years at least.
Currently it reads:
Previously it read:
The "appointed... appointed..." leads to confusion and rereading and continued confusion. It really looks like someone didn't clean up completely when changing from "(PMG) appointed by the president" to "(PMG) appointed by Board of Gov...". Even adding the words "which is" before the second 'appointed' would help only a little.
I'm thinking it would be better overall not to attempt to succinctly repeat here how the Board gets formed. Rather, with the nice link available to satisfy all curiosity, just have:

Greetings, Therequiembellishere: If there is a Wikipedia rule, or precedent for removing the 'birth name as middle name convention’ from LaDoris "Hazzard" Cordell's info-box, please let me know. If not, I respectfully request you repair any other 'birth names' you have removed.

While you're right that AP/DAP/SAP are ranks and typically not used alone as titles, that's what the White House [7] used for Fleming. Every other DCOS listed in official records was explicitly given that title, in addition to the AP rank. Whether or not Fleming felt that he essentially performed that function, other people were explicitly given the title and Fleming was not, and that's the biographical standard. The article reflects what he felt his duties were and his proximity to the COS office. Constantsusan (talk) 01:00, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
