Trump v. Boockvar

On November 21, 2020 Judge Brann issued a ruling rejecting the attempt by President Trump and his supporters to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election in Pennsylvania. Thus the article should be updated to reflect this fact, but editing of the article is disabled. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 47.33.182.72 (talk) 03:30, 22 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

To:

After President Donald Trump's defeat in the 2020 presidential election, the campaign filed three lawsuits, while dozens of others were filed by other parties across multiple states. Hail2skins (talk) 04:33, 22 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Partly done: I've reworded the section to "a number of" - I didn't add mentions of other parties as this section regards a lawsuit filed by the Trump administration Ed talk! 04:38, 22 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Misinformation

Hello,

I have found incorrect information on one of the pages and am unable to edit the information.

The page is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matthew_W._Brann

The information on the page is not correct. Donald J. Trump has not lost the election as of today. The entry reads " was pivotal in the election" it should read as "is pivotal in the election."

Another problem with this page is it says "president-elect Joe Biden." Unfortunately, with the circumstances we have today and the election results being disputed, a winner has not been decided. It appears we will have to wait until the Electoral College votes to determine who the actual winner is. It does appear that Biden has won and will win, but the facts are the facts. Former Vice president Joe Biden remains a candidate, and the page should reflect the truth. The information on this page should be accurate today and updated with new information as the facts change.

I am looking forward to seeing an edit made possible or for one of the volunteers to edit it to reflect the truth with no bias.

Thank you,

This article in German news

Just for the record, a tweet citing this diff of this article made it to Tagesschau, the website of the perhaps most popular news broadcast on German TV. I follow Tagesschau daily, and it's first time I saw something from the English WP there. --Rsk6400 (talk) 12:43, 22 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Rsk6400. Please add this to WP:Press coverage 2020. --ColinFine (talk) 15:37, 22 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@ColinFine: I followed your advice and got reverted. --Rsk6400 (talk) 19:29, 22 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, Rsk6400. I hadn't looked at the Tagesschau website, and assumed from what you said that it referred to Wikipedia directly; but I can't see that it does, so no, it doesn't belong there. --ColinFine (talk) 19:41, 22 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
