Merger Proposal

She appears to be same person as Theodora Nathalia Nathan. --TommyBoy 16:05, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Merge attempt failed, see Talk:Theodora Nathalia Nathan for details. --TommyBoy 17:22, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

She appears to be the same person as Theodora B. Nathan. --TommyBoy 16:01, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

My recent attempt to merge the two pages was unsuccessful. Could someone more familiar with page merging procedures execute the merger? --TommyBoy 17:20, 6 June 2006 (UTC)

I have confirmed with Tonie Nathan that these do need to be merged and that her correct middle name is Nathalia. --M Carling 23:30, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

Merge done. Even merged the discussions too. Cwolfsheep 03:28, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Quality rating

I assessed this article as "Start" class. It has useful information, including a basic overview of Nathan's career and family, and the primary reason for her notability.

It could use the following:

  • some citations
  • a bit of backstory about why the Virginia elector cast a vote for her
  • a statement of what state she lived in when she ran for Vice President (seems quite likely it was Oregon)
  • description of issues she ran on in her various races
  • a basic "info box"
  • a photo

An interesting ref

Evidently a family written obituary published in Eugene Register-Guard on October 14, 2012 here. I'll let others debate useability. Just an FYI. Carolmooredc (Talkie-Talkie) 13:40, 22 March 2014 (UTC)

Older debate

I suspect others may disagree but have deleted the vanity data from this page. The personal details of this unknown Libertarian activist are not worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia. Reithy 22:17, 13 Oct 2004 (UTC)

If Tonie Nathan deserved an article, then she deserves one with some content. There are many things on Wikipedia that I have no interest in, but I don't go around deleting them. pstudier 00:44, 14 Oct 2004 (UTC)

She got the first ever Electoral vote for a female candidate. That will always make her worthy of note, so bring on the detail. 86.148.55.210 (talk) 09:50, 18 September 2016 (UTC)

First Jew?

To get an Electoral vote? Who was/were the other/s? Should say 'only Jew', surely.

Goldwater was part Jewish by heritage, but identified with a Christian church, so I don't think that counts.86.148.55.210 (talk) 09:54, 18 September 2016 (UTC)

Before your time, but Bernie Sanders, also Jewish, would later receive an electoral vote.--24.68.115.211 (talk) 02:35, 26 April 2020 (UTC)
