William J. Green was the best Mayor the city of Philadelphia ever had, he should run again! --—Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.181.39.10 (talkcontribs)

Patricia Green was 40 years old, not forty three when their daughter Maura was born. Green's son, William J Green IIII, is currently running for City Council in Philadelphia.162.83.188.61 23:59, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've followed Mayor Green's career fairly closely and thus have edited this article not only for historical accuracy and overall style but to remove the bias that previously marred its credibility.

All three generations of these Philadelphia, Pa. politicians are commonly known as Bill Green, so the current title for the youngest Bill Green should be redirected to the main Bill Green disambiguation page.

Also, the third Green self-identified as "Bill" during his political career:

For the youngest Bill Green, his official website uses "Bill Green", and news media uses "Bill Green IV" at times, like this 2015 Philly.com article, Philly.com in 2013, this 2015 Philadelphia Magazine article, and this 2015 PoliticsPA article.

Finally, about William/Bill Jr., despite more google results for "William J. Green Jr." Congress vs. "Bill Green Jr." Congress, I can find many uses of "Bill" for Junior over the years:
