1251:. Without sources showing that the topic of ages of governors in comparison to one another is discussed to the extent such as that given in the prose of these articles (e.g., not just citations to things like "X is the oldest governor of state Y to take office"), this is a content fork, original research, and, to quote 力, "a database query." I don't see anything needing to be merged to the parent lists of governors. -- 296: 1108:- First of all my G5 argument was declined on the grounds that, although the sock has been blocked, the sockmaster for some reason hasn't been. This strikes me as bizarre and a bit pedantic, and as far as I'm concerned G5 still stands. But besides that, RandomCanadian is completely correct in saying the principles that apply here are 250:
The second section of the list is a very confusing table of historical holders of the title "Governor of X", and is loaded with trivia, such as their age at start of office, age when they left, length of retirement, and final age, all in years and days. There are also separate ranks for by assumption

The third section of the list is a confusing table of historical holders of the record for "oldest living governor of X," a title that appears to have been invented by a Knowledge editor. The start and end dates list the time period during which the person was the record holder, their age at both,

was not bundled here even though the topic is similar. I think it's reasonable that the Texas list could be non-notable while the California list is notable, I don't think there's a clear line for whether "list of $ office by age" are notable or not so they should be discussed on a case-by-case
813:(being entirely unsourced and not previously published on any website but Knowledge; hence clearly meeting that whether it is CALC or not), so that doesn't help, especially if one takes into account that one can't readily find any source with which to actually write such a context. 246:
The first section of the list ranks former governors who are living by their age. There's no evidence that this ranking is notable, and it has no bearing on their job since they're mostly retired. It's a non-encyclopedic cross-categorization of office holders and longevity.
1022: 991: 778: 201: 862:(doesn't look like that one has an account here, so linking it should be OK)? In which case I wouldn't be too concerned, although yeah of course keep an eye open so anything particularly obvious can be dealt with. Cheers, 1026: 1185: 430: 425: 434: 195: 281:, but these just duplicate the names while adding statistical trivia about their ages. The media has commented on very old and young officeholders, but it's not encyclopedic in this way. 417: 1120:
which everyone would agree is ridiculous. But I guess if the HAES crowd held as much sway here as the gerontology enthusiasts do maybe we'd be having exactly that conversation. Meh.

this is a database query. Per nom, it is cross-categorization and trivia. If any of this were truly important, it could be merged to
