Impeachment process of Richard Nixon → Impeachment process against Richard Nixon – Because Nixon wasn't impeached technically, the article should replace "of" with "against" in consistency with "Impeachment process against..." articles... well, before they became "Impeachment of..." when impeachment occurred. George Ho ( talk) 23:40, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
Should use either "of" or "against". I am not actually proposing two different titles. I am using two titles to propose picking one of two per consistency. I can't discuss
Impeachment proposal against Michel Temer as the impeachment process against him hasn't happened yet; let's leave that out. If you use "support" or "oppose", be specific. Preferably, you can say "use 'of'" or "use 'against'". Struck out. 19:05, 9 December 2016 (UTC)
we can wait a couple of days as it's currently an ongoing story. Arglebargle79 ( talk) 12:40, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
Some people sometimes use the term with a connotation of expressing doubt about the truth. The articles of impeachment, however, were not casual conversation, but a legal document. In law, the document that begins a proceeding is usually referred to as making allegations. Therefore, I've restored "alleged" as characterizing the contents of the articles of impeachment. JamesMLane t c 06:49, 17 February 2017 (UTC)
I can't be the first person to have trouble reconciling the title of this entry with the statement that "Nixon was not impeached". As a matter of simple grammar, once one starts a process, it is a fact, regardless of the outcome. History(.)com flatly states that he was impeached. As does Hillary Clinton. But some sources such as the Washington Post and Fox News maintain that he was not. 2601:244:8301:98C5:39FB:F6EC:98E2:5184 ( talk) 17:33, 30 May 2017 (UTC)

@ Wasted Time R: I disagree. Even while the Rodham content does indeed drift illustrate some low-level staffing activities, this can hardly be taken as emblematic of the whole, and should at least be written to emphasize that this particular instance is only one example of such activities. Also, the focus of this section drifts sharply away from the impeachment process proper and towards Rodham, almost as if she is the subject of the article, which she is not.

I saw earlier today that mention of charges of Trump had been added to this page. I feel that it is too early to add them to this particular page. The only context for other presidents impeachment mentioned here is if they passed the House Judiciary Committee, and I think that is a fair milestone to use for adding to this page. Perhaps if there are formal Articles of Impeachment, but if there are not, there shouldn't be a mention on this page. Thoughts? Tuvas ( talk) 22:11, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
"Republican congressional leaders met with Nixon that his impeachment and removal were all but certain." Possibly ( talk) 04:04, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
