Hello, I have no idea who this AndInFirstPlace person is. I've seen them comment on this article and I just happen to agree with them but otherwise I have no relation to them whatsoever. There are a lot of passionate political observers out there (just check out Reddit and Twitter) and Yang has a lot of people who genuinely believe he is a serious candidate and can win. After 2016 and the victory of AOC over Crowley, I could see it and think the distinction between major and other declared is probably specious. Thanks!SkullKnight1189284 (talk) 05:19, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
It doesn;t matter one white if there are "passionate people" who believe that Yang can win. The only thing that matters is whether a reliable source refers to Yang as a "major declared candidate". Do you have a citation from a reliable source that says that? Beyond My Ken (talk) 08:17, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Having an article declare you as a "major declared candidate"was never part of the criteria listed and discussed and debated by people. It was holding political office or having 5 major polls list you. We were debating the veracity of those criteria and also mentioning Yang had held political office. Someone or myself made the argument that his ambassadorship in the Obama administration should count. talk SkullKnight1189284 (talk) 08:29, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Then the entire thing needs to be scrapped, because we should never be the ones determining who is and who isn;t a "major candidate". There's no special dispensation for the requirement for verifiability by way of citations from reliable sources. Beyond My Ken (talk) 08:35, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Discretionary Sanctions Notification - American Politics

[edit]

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have recently shown interest in post-1932 politics of the United States and closely related people. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.
