This article is an extension of the Timeline of the Presidency of Barack Obama (2009), (2010) and (2011). Over the past three years the original articles have been edited with brevity and clarity as the guiding precepts. The following (What to include) were some tips from the very beginning that have seemed to work to keep the articles "grounded". -- Buster Seven Talk 20:01, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
During the AfD discussion in 2008 there were worries brought up about the content of the evolving articles. As this should be decided here rather than there, I thought I'd give a quick stab at trying to lay out what is suitable info to add and what is not. Please feel free to add or subtract how you see fit. Joshdboz ( talk) 11:50, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
To sum it up, basically use commonsense, and discuss things that are borderline or questionable. Joshdboz ( talk) 11:50, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
Would his recent endorsement of gay marriage in May, as the first sitting President in history to do so, sufficiently qualify as a first? -- 87.151.21.18 ( talk) 21:39, 2 June 2012 (UTC)
The mention of the 104th round of golf implies something. I'm not sure what (probably too busy playing golf instead of running the country) and Im also not sure it is pertinent to the timeline or in keeping with the historic nature of what has been included. In the 3 year history of timeline articles, this quandry is the first. Thoughts? ``` Buster Seven Talk 06:32, 5 August 2012 (UTC)
I will concern myself with editing July and August. HaND. ``` Buster Seven Talk 15:23, 5 August 2012 (UTC)
