You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.237.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪JJMC89‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 05:36, 2 January 2025.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

He was a veteran of World War II and a member of the [[Republican Party (United States)|Republican Party]], who served for three weeks as the [[List of governors of Delaware|70th governor of Delaware]]. ((As of|2024)), he remains the most recent Republican governor of Delaware.

==Early life and family==
Wolf was born at [[Kearney, Nebraska|Kearney]], Nebraska, the son of Harry and Irene Wolf. He graduated from the [[University of Nebraska]] in [[Lincoln, Nebraska|Lincoln]], Nebraska, with a degree in agriculture. During [[World War II]], he served as a [[first lieutenant]] in the [[United States Army]], earning a [[Bronze Star Medal]] and [[Purple Heart]] at the [[Battle of Okinawa]]. He married Clarice Elaine Marshall in 1945 and they have four children, Janet, Glenda, Thomas, and James.

==Professional and political career==
After the war, Wolf received his [[Doctor of Philosophy|Ph.D.]] in agriculture from [[Rutgers University]] and soon took a position with the agriculture research division of [[E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Company]]. He became the chairman of the board of DuPont's Pharmaceutical Business and group vice president of the agriculture business. Meanwhile, he was at various times chairman of the [[National Agriculture Chemical Association]] (NACA), chairman of the [[International Agriculture Chemical Association]] (GIFAP), and a member of the board of the [[Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Association]] (PMA). He retired from DuPont in 1987 to accept an appointment from Governor [[Mike Castle|Michael N.

==Lieutenant Governor and Governor of Delaware==
Wolf was incumbent governor [[Mike Castle|Michael N. Castle]]'s choice for lieutenant governor in 1988 and won election, defeating Democrat Gary E.

Wolf chose not to run for governor in 1992 against the candidacy of Democrat [[Tom Carper|Thomas R. Carper]]. When Governor [[Mike Castle|Michael N. Castle]] resigned to take his new position in the [[United States House of Representatives]], however, Wolf served as governor the remaining 20 days of Castle's second term. He was, to date, the last Republican governor of Delaware.

==Later career==
Wolf later served as chairman of Daynel International, a consultant group that assists companies interested in doing business in China. He lived in [[Guangzhou|Guangzhou, China]] in 1995, setting up an office for the law firm of Mezzullo-McCandlish, of which he was the senior international consultant. He was vice chairman of the board of directors of the Emerald BioAgriculture Corporation, an agriculture biotechnology company in Lansing, Michigan, and from 1998 on vice chairman of the WSFS Financial Corporation. He chaired the first Drug and Alcohol Abuse Coordinating Council for Delaware, and was the chairman of SURJ (Stand Up for what's Right and Just), an organization dedicated to improve the criminal justice system in Delaware.
