Article structure

I’m afraid to be WP:BOLD, but shouldn’t the sections Speaker of the House and 2012 vice presidential campaign be switched? At present, Pre-Speaker congressional tenure (1999–2015), despite its title, ends with something in 2012; then there is the section about his 2015–2019 speakership, including the 2016 election; then we’re back to the 2012 election. 93.19.248.151 (talk) 14:07, 15 November 2022 (UTC)

Information box photograph

I noticed there’s a lot of back and forth editing about which photo should be in his info box, his official photograph or painting, wanted to ask which one should used, I’m assuming it’s the photograph Maxx1222 (talk) 23:04, 13 January 2023 (UTC)

His official portrait should be kept. Is there really a reason why should we replace it with a painting instead when we actually have a photo of him? Vacant0 (talk) 23:14, 13 January 2023 (UTC)
Considering that RayAdvait keeps changing the image (on multiple articles), I think that we should form a consensus on which image should be used here in the infobox. I'm in favor of using his official portrait from 2018. Vacant0 (talk) 14:14, 18 January 2023 (UTC)
Keep current photo, I feel like the current official congressional photo is fine Maxx1222 (talk) 20:05, 18 January 2023 (UTC)

What is he doing now?

The article should be updated with Ryan's current professional activities. found this so far: https://marketrealist.com/p/what-is-paul-ryan-doing-now/ GalantFan (talk) 06:48, 26 May 2023 (UTC)
