== Cindy Hyde-Smith deletions ==

As an infrequent contributor to Wikipedia, I'm just now noting your significant deletions to the [[Cindy_Hyde-Smith|Cindy Hyde-Smith]] article of November, 2018. While I certainly understand neutral point of view and can see the point of YouTube video not being a reliable source (even though the video is unmistakably verifiable as that of Hyde-Smith), I do question why you made such sweeping deletions of citations which are clearly ''not'' of a questionable nature. Among the citations removed were excerpts from Hyde-Smith's own Web site; Mississippi's largest newspaper, ''The Clarion-Ledger''; and established broadcast news organizations from local station WLBT to international networks like CNN and Fox News.

Frankly, this comes across not as an effort to adhere to Wikipedia standards, but more as a "sanitation effort" to remove unflattering (yet quite verifiable and well-sourced) information about Hyde-Smith. I find this hard to justify as a point-of-view fork, as both liberal and conservative media sources reported widely on the events mentioned.

Would you be so kind as to explain your reasoning for such heavy-handed removals under Wikipedia policies? [[Special:Contributions/2601:3CA:204:F860:4DEB:52C8:7CB0:F598|2601:3CA:204:F860:4DEB:52C8:7CB0:F598]] ([[User talk:2601:3CA:204:F860:4DEB:52C8:7CB0:F598|talk]]) 16:36, 6 April 2019 (UTC)

Re: Nicholas A. Trutanich

Just curious, where did you come across where Nicholas A. Trutanich has been sworn in? I can't find anything. Snickers2686 (talk) 04:21, 25 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Snickers2686 Gosh, I know I found something yesterday about this, but now I can't find it again. Feel free to revert my changes in the mean time until I can find the sourcing! Marquardtika (talk) 18:30, 25 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
