RfC on calling results at WikiProject Elections
Please participate in an RfC at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Elections and Referendums#RfC Should articles say elections are decided based on preliminary returns?. --Dennis Bratland (talk) 05:15, 9 November 2017 (UTC)
"second consecutive openly LGBT mayor"
To re-iterate what I put in my edit explanation: I added "elected" to the lead (first para) - she isn't the second *consecutive* LGBT mayor, there were two unelected interim mayors in between her and Ed Murray (Washington politician). (Bruce Harrell, Tim Burgess (politician)) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Paulie 27 (talk • contribs) 04:03, 22 March 2018 (UTC)
Instead of just removing the abovementioned "LGBT" and substituting "gay" or "LGB" , instead of doing that, which I am not doing because that would be a provocative edit for someone to make who is neither L nor G nor B nor T nor Q nor I for that matter...but honestly, it would be a more economical use of language to just drop the ding dang "T" because Seattle has had exactly zero consecutive "T" mayors, so why mention "T"? It's like saying, "Jenny Durkan is the second (and not the third or fourth) consecutive gay mayor of Seattle." It's like, why even mention the next two gay mayors after Durkan resigns, those future gay mayors have nothing to do with the current gay mayor. 98.247.86.238 (talk) 10:21, 16 June 2020 (UTC)Bardolph98.247.86.238 (talk) 10:21, 16 June 2020 (UTC)
Sorry about that!
I was looking at an outdated version of the page and reverted what I thought was vandalism. But accidentally reverted the fix. I've reverted my reversion. Faolin42 (talk) 15:14, 8 June 2020 (UTC)

What do you not understand about the job of a criminal defense attorney?! It is their job to make up whatever argument they think will get their client off. Are you that dense, or are you simply stooping that low to do anything in your power to discredit Durkan. If every former lawyer turned politician had wiki editors like you, nonsense like this would be all you would read on their pages. The client's crimes are not a reflection of the lawyers' character, nor is what they have to say while defending them, as you are trying so hard to make it seem. I can't believe I have to explain this to you. It was noteworthy because of the police office'rs actions. Durkan was never a major part of this story. She was just doing her job. She was never involved in any controversy regarding this. You trying to include this in her biography by twisting the narrative is a subtle but clear attempt to damage her reputation, which amounts to SLANDER. Which is exactly not the purpose of Wikipedia articles. Given your clear and proven bias against this individual (was I already proved on your talk page) I don't think you should be editing this page going forward.

Calling bullshit on WP:IDONTLIKEIT. Poor argument for retention of content not really about the subject that that uses WP:TABLOID language to salaciously cast subject in a bad light. Please do not place such challenged, negative WP:BLP content in this article again without achieving a consensus. Please cease from your personal attacks, aspersions and insinuations that only someone biased in favor of the subject would remove it. It is quite clear that it is your editing that is biased against the subject. It is so negative, it might even lead a neutral observer to feel you have an axe to grind. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 17:33, 3 August 2020 (UTC) Thanks, Drmies, WP:SYNTH is the word I was looking for. --Deepfriedokra (talk) 17:34, 3 August 2020 (UTC)

Deletion of controversies continued
@Drmies:, come on now Doc. We're not done just because you refuse to discuss. WP:OWN. What specific objections do you have to the more recently deleted content, and what reactions do you have to my response to the deletion of the earlier deleted content? If you refuse to discuss, you are the one who's being disruptive and edit warring. And I'm sorry if you can't handle some light-hearted teasing, but given your behavior how can I not?--174.21.179.79 (talk) 13:51, 7 August 2020 (UTC)
