Legislative terms use - (short dash) , life spans use – (long dash). Besides, 1820-21 is a one-year term which had sessions in two calendar years. 1820-1821 would be a two-year tenure. Besides, the dashes and numbers were messing up page references. Please check carefully what you are editing, the correct info should be preserved. Please avoid unnecessary edits.

RE Patrug edit summary "Morelle & dozens of others have been Acting Speakers for brief episodes. They were not Speakers." - You need to distinguish acting while the actual office-holder is absent and acting while the office is vacant. In the first case, no mention is ever made in lists, because the list shows the actual office-holder, independent of whether he is physically present or not, but he holds the office. In the second case, the office is vacant, and the next-in-line acts, in this case, as Speaker. Such "episodes" have occurred four times during the last 60 years, and these Acting Speakers are listed, see Carlino, Weinstein, Tallon and Morelle. Carlino was subsequently elected as Speaker, so that his acting tenure is not separately shown. Weinstein, Tallon and Morelle never became Speakers, but acted during a vacancy. Weinstein actually acted as Governor while Rockefeller, Wilson and Brydges were out of the State at the same time. You see, there's a reason to list them, independent from the lengths of their acting term. Please do not revert again. Kraxler ( talk) 13:50, 16 February 2015 (UTC)
