The election is just around the corner guys! Any chance of expanding this, and referencing it, so that we can de-stub it? -- tan 13:09, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
I've uploaded a free use pic that I took. I know it's not great but it's a bit strange not having a pic of the deputy first minister in her article. GiollaUidir 13:41, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
Any thoughts on the new Swine 'flu section? When I first encountered it it was unreferenced and fairly stubby; I added a ref from the BBC confirming that Sturgeon was Health Secretary and hence reporting on the issue, but noted in my edit summary that I didn't feel the section was particularly valuable. Since then another editor has removed the section, the section has been reinstated, I've removed it, and it's been reinstated again (by the same editor who initially added it and then re-added it).
My feeling is that there's very little useful information here - sure, she's Health Secretary and hence reports on the issue, but beyond that she's not doing anything amazing - she's simply doing what numerous other similar politicians are doing. My feeling is at the moment there's nothing particularly notable about her handling of the issue, and that the section should go. Thoughts?

No, her handling of the crisis has seen her international profile soar. She has been reported around the world on the issue. It may not need a seperate section per se, but has the most significant thing in her career to date, she needs referenced. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.6.12.212 ( talk) 17:49, 1 May 2009 (UTC)
Depute is not a mispelling, it is one of several words where there is a "kilted" change (others include Convenor to Convener). The SNP's party constitution calls her their Depute Leader, so Depute it stays — Preceding unsigned comment added by DMac1 ( talk • contribs) 21:00, 28 August 2012 (UTC)
Does anybody have a better picture of NS for the lead? The existing picture is at least 10 years old and is also extremely unflattering, despite apparently being sourced from the SNP. She doesn't look anything like that today. -- Ef80 ( talk) 20:54, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
Sturgeon officially became first minister on the 20th of November, not the 19th. On the 19th she was the Scottish Parliament's nominee for the role, but had neither received royal assent nor been sworn in in the Court of Session, thus officially did not hold the post.
