Does anyone know about Ron Wyden's Oil Investigations? I would like to see them included in this article. —This unsigned comment was added by Hastalavictoria ( talk • contribs) .
This article, especially the just-modified section on estate taxes, needs more sourcing. -- Gnetwerker 02:33, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
Reverted POV edit, repeated posting. "contributor" seems to think that "millionaire heiress" is more informative then "ower of the Strand Bookstore in New York" If the effort is to show that the businesswomen in question is wealthy, the informative statement that she is the owner of a well known (with it's own wiki page) New York institution should be sufficient. If the intent is to demonstrate a family connection, "third generation owner" would again be more informative and less POV. -- HBergeron 7:30 8 June 2006 (sorry don't want to log on from a multi-user terminal
Most of this piece reads like POV campaign literature with subjective statements positively characterizing Wyden's politics. If POV about politics is considered appropriate, then there would be a legitimate place for information about this given Wyden's professed claims to be pro-labor: "Struggle at the Strand", http://www.nypress.com/article-18225-struggle-at-the-strand.html —Preceding unsigned comment added by Truthincheck ( talk • contribs) 15:57, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
That picture is terrible. It makes him look like he's made out of clay. -- Liface 18:31, 2 May 2006 (UTC)
removed political screed
Blair Bobier is a Pacific Green Party member not a Libertarian. He was a founding member of the Pacific Party who later changed its name to reflect their joining of the national Green Party.

The article drops in Palo_Alto, w/o explaining that odd chronology; Wichita, then Palo? How do they manage a business in Greenwich? Well, that could be even more difficult if it were the one in London.

Without much suggestion on how to fix it, it seems there is a lot of ambiguity in the article. For instance, "The senator has recently voted against restrictions on travel and trade with Cuba and also to end anti-Castro broadcasting to the country" leaves me wondering whether he voted in favor of or against ending anti-Castro broadcasting. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jandjorgensen ( talk • contribs) 18:49, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
I recently added a sentence indicating that Wyden will chair the Energy committee starting in 2013, but it was removed with the following edit summary: "…wikipedia should not be used to predict low-level political appointments."
This is not mere prediction or speculation, but (according to the source) the outcome delineated by Senate rules. In other words, Wikipedia is not doing the predicting, but reporting the analysis of a reliable source. While "low level" is a matter of perspective, the way it is treated by the source indicates significance. The Statesman Journal, the political paper of record for Sen. Wyden's state, devotes an entire article to the issue, attaching significance in terms of the political clout of the entire state's delegation. Ascending to the chairmanship of a committee as significant as the Energy committee is a significant step in any senator's career, and this point should be noted in the article. - Pete ( talk) 05:16, 14 November 2012 (UTC)
Excellent, informative article:

Wyden has been a senator from Oregon for nearly 20 years, and was a U.S. Representative for 15 years before that. His article should be at least Mid-importance, if not High-importance. MB298 ( talk) 03:51, 18 December 2015 (UTC)
