::::I don't think we need any formal "criteria" for what to include here. We need to judge each action on a case-by-case basis. This article is not intended to include ''only'' achievements directly signed off by Trump, but rather any achievement made possible through him, his administration, and Congress. For example, while John Kelly or Scott Pruitt signing off on something is not Trump signing off on something, they are only able to do what they do because Trump nominated and the Senate confirmed them in the first place. "Interesting" federal actions can be used to illustrate the positive changes in the Trump Administration, at least as opposed to earlier administrations, in advancing conservative, common-sense ideals/policies. --[[User:1990'sguy|1990'sguy]] ([[User talk:1990'sguy|talk]]) 02:26, 19 June 2017 (EDT)

:::::I understand the approach of covering the first 100 days, but we do need criteria. One possible criteria is "Does it have an estimated annual impact of more than $100 million?" Conservapedia has now be here since 2007. We did not cover the George W. Bush administration nor the Barack Obama administration in the level of detail that we have been covering the first 100 days. We don't have the volunteer staffing necessary to do so and things will quickly go out of date. Recently, I tried to organize a systematic update of all of our [http://www.conservapedia.com/Conservapedia:Community_Portal#Political_directory state articles]. We could not get enough volunteers to make sure that basic facts in those articles were updated. Nor could we keep up to date all of the infoboxes in the university articles. Suppose an editor adds an item to the page that is low impact, but interesting. A few months later, the opponents of the particular item take it to court. Two years later, the court reverses the agency, nullifying the achievement. If we list the achievement, we owe our readers a duty to later note that it is in court or how the court finally decided the question. General agreement on criteria is needed.
