Ways to improve The Ride of a Lifetime

Hello, PrairieKid,

Thank you for creating The Ride of a Lifetime.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

Please add at least 2-3 more sources. As the page is quite short, any additional cited information would be a welcome addition to the article. Thank you.

The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Citrivescence}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~. For broader editing help, please visit the Teahouse.

Delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

Rocky De La Fuente

In regard to this edit, I was the editor who moved Rocky De La Fuente (RDLF) to the major candidates section. You stated in your edit summary, "Per prior consensus, reverting Rocky back to a non-major candidate." But in this case, the circumstances that created the prior consensus had changed. Specifically, RDLF previously hadn't been included in 5 independent national polls, and now he has been. So he changed from not meeting one of the criteria to be considered a major candidate, to meeting that criterion. When you wrote, "A user with [[WP:POV[[ made the change", did you mean me? I don't have a pro-RDLF point of view, nor do I think other Wikipedia editors would consider me to have such a POV. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 06:47, 17 January 2020 (UTC)

@Metropolitan90:: As I said in a reply on the talk page, it was my error. I incorrectly assumed the user making the 3 edits prior to mine had made the change. That user is a newcomer and has some...interesting edit summaries. Hopefully you understand where my confusion came from and can accept my sincere apology. I certainly would not for a second have questioned you or your neutrality.
I want to keep the discussion on RDLF in one place, so I'll ask that you see my reply on that page. I am glad we could have the personal discussion here as well; hopefully, we have cleared the air. Respectfully, PrairieKid (talk) 06:55, 17 January 2020 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Emma Vigeland

 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Emma Vigeland requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion discussion, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Emma Vigeland. When a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after a discussion, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Incumbents' ages

Thank you for editing the US senate election articles. I see you just added the incumbents' ages. I suggest, however, that the ages should not be included. Although I've seen it elsewhere, and it's sometimes a tradition, I think, perhaps, we ought not to continue it that way. What do you think? Thank you. —GoldRingChip 18:13, 21 January 2020 (UTC)

@GoldRingChip: I understand what you're saying but I think the ages are important. Now, they should not be the only important item of information next to their experience level. I think the perfect article would include the number of terms they've each served, the likely opponents, perhaps some polling/predictions, and some brief prose about the race, as well as their ages. The ages are an important factoid in terms of whether or not the Senator will consider retiring, and also plays a role in voters' decisions. Again, I wish it was not the only tidbit of information but it is important nonetheless. Would you be willing to revert or go to the TP? PrairieKid (talk) 00:40, 22 January 2020 (UTC)
If they retire, then their age is moot. If they don't, then it's prejudicial (one way or the other). I suggest we leave age in only if it becomes a relevant issue, such as when they themselves cite it or when an opponent uses it against them. —GoldRingChip 00:48, 22 January 2020 (UTC)

IKA Torino

Look man, I'm an Argentinian dude who lives in the USA, all the things ive written in the article are from old local magazines an interviews, its all true, you can investigate if you want, but, please, why did you reverted all my changes? All I wanted to do is to show the world what it is that car for my country, rewriting the History, cause some things were wrong, do whatever you want, but as I told you, could you please at least tell me why did you did it?

Koiszków,Poland

On the Polish Wikipedia it says the population of koiszków is 65 not 1,004.Also as me and my German family LIVE in Koiszków so the percentage of Germans will increase. As a result of this German is spoken by 15% making it a big minority . thank you. Szmuklerkacper (talk) 18:33, 8 February 2020 (UTC)

I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Denny Sanford Premier Center have been undone because they appeared to be promotional.
