Sinema edit.

I’m not allowed to edit her page, but the stuff that was just added today about Sinema’s victory keep referencing her as a member of the Democratic Party. It’s a technicality, but it is the Democrat party, not the Democratic Party. It’s a simple edit and it drives me crazy when it’s used incorrectly. Thanks. Hobberdog (talk) 04:54, 13 November 2018 (UTC)

@Hobberdog:, considering our article and their website say "Democratic," I'd say you're wrong. --Golbez (talk) 05:55, 13 November 2018 (UTC)

Incidentally, Sunshineisles2, I had this on my watchlist from our last discussion, but I want to apologize, I was a bit of a jerk then. --Golbez (talk) 06:04, 13 November 2018 (UTC)

I appreciate that. Apology accepted. —Sunshineisles2 (talk) 17:22, 13 November 2018 (UTC)

I have long believed that Democrat was the title of the party and that Democratic is an ideology. I have since done a little research on the subject and discovered I was wrong. Thank you for not accepting my suggested edit.

US incoming governors infoboxes

Howdy, we now use Governor-elect in the infobox, per consensus reached at an Rfc on Wikipedia:WikiProject Biography/Politics and government. -- GoodDay (talk) 03:29, 15 December 2018 (UTC)

Alterspräsident succeeding Schäuble

Gysi is older then Ramsauer, so he will be Father of the House. Do you have sources? Grimes2 (talk) 17:04, 27 December 2023 (UTC)

My understanding is that Father of the House is determined by length of service, not age. Ramsauer has the longest continuous service. Sunshineisles2 (talk) 17:30, 27 December 2023 (UTC)

Ahh ok, so the infobox should be fixed. Grimes2 (talk) 17:37, 27 December 2023 (UTC)

Willett Advisors

Hello, I work for Steven Rattner, whose article you contributed to significantly several months ago. I recently posted an edit request at the talk page of Steve's investment firm Willett Advisors and thought you might be interested in taking a look - at Talk:Willett Advisors#Updates to the article. An editor responded initially to the request, asking for clarification, but he has not followed up since I clarified the request about two weeks ago. I hope you'll consider making the changes I've proposed. Thank you, E at rattner (talk) 18:00, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

Hello, I have taken a look at the edit requests and added the new location per your sources. As for your other questions, I would recommend reaching back out to that editor and seeing if they might be able to provide further insight on the best way forward. Sunshineisles2 (talk) 18:53, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

Thank you for your assistance. It looks like the other editor (Spintendo) has been mostly inactive over the past month, which might explain why he hasn't responded in the discussion. So I'm hoping you'll agree to review and implement the other two changes I've proposed, in Spintendo's absence. I would make the edits myself if not for my conflict of interest. Thanks again! E at rattner (talk) 14:54, 20 February 2024 (UTC)

I'll have another look at it, but I would prefer to hear more about the original objections, hopefully from Spintendo, before taking any actions. I'm honestly not sure of the right etiquette to reach back out and specifically get in contact on a particular ongoing issue (such as through pinging on the original dsicussion) however. Perhaps it would be worth leaving a message on their talk page? Sunshineisles2 (talk) 20:19, 22 February 2024 (UTC)

My understanding is that Spintendo did not voice any objections to my proposal, but only asked for a clearer explanation of why I believe the COATRACK and verification-failing content should be removed. And, based on Spintendo's recent contributions (a total of 3 edits since Jan. 16), it looks like a user talk page post would be unhelpful. That's why I'm looking for another unbiased editor to implement what I've requested. But I would be happy to seek out a different editor if you still prefer not to get involved. Much appreciated, E at rattner (talk) 14:22, 26 February 2024 (UTC)

Yes, I think that would be best. Scenarios like these are not my area of expertise as an editor, so I don't know how much help I could be. Sunshineisles2 (talk) 16:55, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
