Gender usage[edit]

Is "Congresspeople" and appropriate term?Mbisanz 03:32, 25 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I know that in general, lists are supposed to be relegated to their own pages, but there must be a ton of stuff in Alaska named after Bob Bartlett. Just off the top of my head:

• Bartlett Regional Hospital in Juneau, which is mentioned in the article.
• Bartlett High School in Anchorage.
• Bartlett Drive in Anchorage, off Lake Otis Parkway. Two other streets in the same subdivision are named after the other primary territorial delegates, Wickersham and Dimond.
• the Bartlett Democratic Club in Anchorage.
• the Bartlett Earth Station near Talkeetna.
• Bartlett Heights Subdivision in Fairbanks, located off the intersection of Farmers Loop Road and Summit Drive. The streets in the subdivision are named Senate Loop and Vide Way.
• Bartlett Hall at the University of Alaska Fairbanks.
• some Fairbanks maps denote the place name "Bartlett," located near the intersection of Chena Ridge and Isberg roads, but I dunno if this was specifically named after Bob Bartlett or not.

Where's the section on the pears he and his family in Sonoma developed? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 110.34.4.242 (talk) 12:25, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There's no evidence that his family ever owned a farm in Sonoma. This entry appears to be spam. Activist (talk) 06:50, 15 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This article draws heavily on Bartlett's entry in a public source, the Congressional Biography, edition published in 1971, pages 559 and 560. [1]
