Active Endorsements Only?

Should this page include only include active endorsements? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 38.108.59.142 (talk) 22:57, 11 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@SineBot As long as the person has openly declared their support and has not withdrawn it, we should include it on the list.

Notability of Individuals Mentioned

I see in the others section there is the name Rishi Nair, a winner of the National Geographic Bee. While this is a major competition, Nair is not as well known of a figure to be added to the list of campaign endorsements. In addition, he is a minor. I am guessing that someone who knows him personally added this to the list, as the source cited is a post on his personal Google+ page, a post that has now been deleted.
