I remove the life information when I redid the page because it just seemed unnecessary. Also, since each individual governor's page has that information, why is it needed here? I hope the page is more clear, although I think that some of the superscripts are off (shouldn't John I. Guion has a (c) not an (a) at the end?). I will check the previous table against each of the individual pages to see if (I hope not) this page had more accurate life and death information. -- Ricky81682 07:23, Dec 3, 2004 (UTC)
I guess this would be the place to mention it. For each governor, I added a table so that one could follow the history of the governorship in order. I would like some input regarding the tables. Is there any problems or any suggestions regarding the style? -- Ricky81682 ( talk) 01:56, Dec 6, 2004 (UTC)
I think the listing looks better the original way I had it with tables. The current format just looks less organized. Just my opinion... :) -- User:Jpcarver
Is this part of the article correct? I can't find any mention of his death anywhere else, including his wikipedia page: As of January 2012, five former governors are alive, the oldest being William Winter (1980–1984, born 1923). The most recent governor to die was William Allain(1984-1988)on June 26, 2013. The most recently serving governor to die was Kirk Fordice, who left office on January 11 of 2000 and died on September 7, 2004 at the age of seventy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.123.130.5 ( talk) 22:48, 29 July 2013 (UTC)

I've check the internet head to toe, including Mississippi's official website. I can't seem to find an Mississippi Governors list, to figure out the missing 57. GoodDay ( talk) 17:17, 23 January 2010 (UTC)

Just a heads up. Governor Fielding Wright is numbered 'twice' (49th & 50th), because he was an un-elected Governor (1946-48) when he finished his predecessor's term & then an elected Governor (1948-52) when he served his own full term. Mississippi, is the only state that does this type of counting. GoodDay ( talk) 00:54, 11 May 2016 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: no consensus to move the page at this time, per the discussion below, although it appears that there is support for creating separate articles for the offices listed below. Dekimasu よ! 19:14, 13 May 2018 (UTC)
List of Governors of Mississippi →
Governor of Mississippi – Currently
Governor of Mississippi redirects here, but I think it makes sense to swap the 2 pages. Currently the page includes information on the office and a list. It makes sense for a page on the office to have a list, but less sense for the list to have historical information on the office. Also, it is shorter and more succinct, and gets the same info across. It's also a more likely search term, unless someone is on WP a lot and knows to include "list of"... I am having a hard time explaining my reasoning, but I think it just makes more sense!

The list needs to be amended with acting territorial governors. For example Cato West. [1] FloridaArmy ( talk) 12:20, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
I think the page title should be Governor of Mississippi. It's not just a list and shorter naming is preferred. FloridaArmy ( talk) 21:52, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
