Hovercard image
[edit]The image on the hovercard or page preview for this article is a generic collage of photographs of American politicians such as Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi (no Stephen Breyer) it appears to be the image for the section of the article saying that it is part of a series on modern liberalism. While I understand that it is an algorithm that chooses the photos, it seems like it would be better if there was a photo of Breyer on the hovercard, or no photo. Is there a way to change this?

- @Helenteds: Thanks for pointing this out. This appears to be a problem for all justices using Template:modern liberalism in the United States sidebar. I reproduced the problem for all liberal justices (see here for list of justices). I'm not sure what's wrong but I'll keep an eye on this and ask around.

- I talked to someone on WP:DISCORD which resulted in this change. Apparently, the hovercard problem appears to be a quirk with mw:Extension:PageImages. Hopefully, blacklisting the image from the extension will fix things soon. Airplaneman (talk) ✈ 16:23, 25 September 2020 (UTC)

Sounds like he plans to retire per the news channel today?
[edit]It's what I saw on NBC. Lazarus1255 (talk) 17:01, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
So one news channel report based on anonymous sources makes it true? At this point isn't it still speculation until an official announcement is made? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 106.72.37.128 (talk) 23:57, 26 January 2022 (UTC)
List KBJ as successor in infobox
[edit]Per Breyer's letter to Biden in January, he is retiring from the Court. The Senate voted on her nomination and the question was "Ketanji Brown Jackson, of the District of Columbia, to be an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States." There is a commission for Jackson that just needs to be signed by the President once Breyer retires. She is a designate-justice now. It's even listed on KBJ's own Wikipedia page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pennsylvania2 (talk • contribs)
- For now I added KBJ as a commented-out line of wikicode within the infobox transclusion, along with a note reminding editors to keep it commented out until his retirement becomes real & final. ‐‑🌀SilSinnAL982100💬 03:11, 25 June 2022 (UTC)
