Why is this in the article? It adds zero value, even the banner above the excerpt asks to trim it down due to it being only appreciated by a small very specific audience. Just because she said it in her book does not give it notability to be on this page. Please remove this entire entry. MaximusEditor (talk) 19:43, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Given the prominence of the dog and goat shooting incident on her public image, as well as false claims about meeting North Korea's leader, etc., do you think it would be advisable to move these details from "Personal Life" to a new section that can broadly encapsulate these controversies? There has already been some support to give the episode with the dog its own section. ChthonicSweetie (talk) 01:25, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I did not realize how new you are here. Welcome. Glad I didn't WP:BITE you. A "public image" section could work, but would have to put the focus on how she is perceived for those things. – Muboshgu (talk) 01:50, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I agree this should be removed. The language is provided without citation, and I can't find any source to support this. At best, it appears that the CAP makes legislators honorary members. So you might have at best an honorary member of a civilian auxiliary group. This should be deleted. Athoughtforyou (talk) 12:59, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Effective September 11, 2022, the GWOT-SM is now awarded to service members only serving in the area of effect for approved campaigns related to the Global War on Terrorism. [1] This has nothing to do with her service as an officer in the Civil Air Patrol. ZebulonMorn (talk) 07:32, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Most WP:RS sources do not introduce Noem as an author, and it is not a very notable aspect. Hence it should be removed from firstsentence per WP:Firstsentance. Thanks. RogerYg (talk) 03:54, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It has been widely reported in WP:RS sources. It is very notable that it should be included in the first paragraph of the lead. RogerYg (talk) 03:55, 6 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Kristi Noem posted a picture on her social media about her promotion to Lieutenant Colonel in the Civil Air Patrol. [2] She joined during her tenure in the state legislature. "State legislative member" are honorary members unless they choose to continue as a full active member.[3] As she hasn't been a state legislator in over a decade, and the expiration date on her CAC reads "31 December 2024", she is an active member of the Civil Air Patrol. Additionally, "on Aug. 28, 2015, Gen. Mark A. Welsh III, Air Force chief of staff, announced CAP officially as a member of the U.S. Air Force’s Total Force, joining the regular, guard and reserve forces as American airmen." [4] This should absolutely be included on her infobox and intro, as she is an officer in the United States Armed Forces. ZebulonMorn (talk) 07:28, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
