In the family section - it seems unlikely that Amanda Leigh Hayes, if she exists at all, was born in 1996. 82.45.125.60 ( talk) 12:51, 18 April 2010 (UTC)
I was just casually perusing by and noticed that poor RBH had his article replaced with some coarse language. I reverted the page to it's last sensible looking version, I haven't inspected it much more than that, so their may be lingering pre-vandalism somewhere in the text.

This article would appear to contradict itself. In the info box, in the religion section, Hayes is said to have "no affiliation". Yet he is in the category "Methodists". Isn't that an affiliation? Bhumiya ( said/ done) 08:34, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
How come to not talk about his role in paraguayan history? There is a prefecture and city named after him. --- Tonganoxie Jim 24.60.163.16 04:13, 31 December 2006 (UTC)
I think that more information can be given about Hayes. There is a substancial amount of facts missing

I think a big chunk of this has been plagiarized from the Grolier Encyclopedia... Here's the link: http://ap.grolier.com/article?assetid=0196450-00 .
It was during his command of the 23rd Regiment of the Ohio Volunteer Infantry that Hayes met William McKinley, who would later become the 25th President of the United States. Hayes promoted McKinley twice under his military command, including once for an act of bravery at Antietam. During Hayes' first Ohio gubernatorial race, McKinley engaged in political campaigning and rallying for Hayes' election by "making speeches in the Canton area".<ref> http://www.ohiohistory.org/onlinedoc/ohgovernment/governors/mckinley.html<ref> Later, as Governor of Ohio, Hayes provided political support for his fellow Republican and Ohioian during McKinley's bid for congressional election. Hayes was arguably one of the strongest political supporters underlying McKinley's military and political successes. </nowiki> Shannon bohle ( talk) 20:50, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
Does anyone know anything the Tidewater Act of 1879? I've searched extensively, but can't seem to locate information about this piece of legislation that Hayes supposedly signed into law. I can't even determine whether or not this was/is a real law. Kindest regards, AlphaEta 15:37, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
Can Someone please fix or adjust the section on his early life. It sits the awkwardly on the page and does not wrap properly around the boxes. I have to admit that my own wiki-knowledge is not good enough yet, being that I have only been a serious editor for less than a month now. I am sure that someone could do it. It just looks terrible when someone tries to read the article. I would try and fix it and I don't wish to experiment on it in an attempt to try and make it look better. -- Jojhutton ( talk) 19:31, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
For the next four years, Democrats would refer to Hayes as "Rutherfraud B. Hayes" for his allegedly illegitimate election, as he had lost the popular vote by roughly 250,000 votes.
Was their gripe that he wasn't the popular vote winner or was it because of the contentious and partisan outcome of the Electoral College? The two are very different things. Timrollpickering ( talk) 15:42, 14 November 2008 (UTC)
The entire article on Hayes needs to be expanded using Hoogenboom's biography of Hayes. Very brief and weak compared to other entries. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Billyrayakbar2003 ( talk • contribs) 20:51, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
I read that the original internment of Hayes was in Oakwood Cemetery, but here it says Riverwood, which is right? -- Coingeek ( talk) 01:54, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
Over the last month I have noticed that this article has been vandalized a number of times, and all by anonymous users, I suggest that the page be semi-protected, at least, to prevent this kind of vandalism again. -- Coingeek ( talk) 22:55, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
I was wondering why Hayes hasn't been given an importance ranking. Shouldn't he be at least a High class because he was a president? Also, Hayes has had some serious expansion under presidency, so should we reassess his page to see if it is still C-class? Just wondering. -- Schwindtd ( talk) 14:51, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
Hey! For everybody working on this page, I am currently working on getting all cites in line with WP:CITE. So don't worry if the cites aren't all exactly in line for right now. Just chill. They will get done. Thanks. Schwindtd ( talk) 19:01, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

I'll be reviewing this article for potential GA status. My review should be posted shortly. Cheers, Nikkimaria ( talk) 13:47, 23 August 2010 (UTC)
This section is Done
I'm not an expert on US history of that period, but I don't see anything obviously missing. However, note the concern above about duplicated material re: family.
Lots of vandalism, but no edit-warring or similar concerns

Hey, this page gets consistently vandalized. I was wondering if there was some way we could reasonably increase protection. -- Schwindtd ( talk) 00:12, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

Reviewer: Racepacket ( talk) 04:49, 22 October 2010 (UTC) Article needs substantial work to meet GA standards. I am placing it on hold. Seeing no changes, it is failed.
The article links to a disambiguation page: William Allen. Comments are presented below, section by section:
Discussion of this topic could be expanded.
Explain that Hayes was not consistent in applying reform to his own administration, and left that to individual cabinet members. Some departments retained a spoils system.
I do not believe that this section complies with WP:LIST. Consider incorporating prose into the above sections.

Why is this at the end of the article? Possibly include discussion of his sons and his becoming an honorary fraternity member here rather than in Early Life It is odd that none of his children lead lives sufficiently notable to be covered in a separate Wikipedia article. Wikify Lucy Webb Hayes his wife and James Webb Cook Hayes his son and check the rest. (I know they are linked in the infobox, but I suggest linking in the body as well.)
Check what other historians have considered worthy of coverage. For example, lecturers at the Hayes Library.
