Bot report : Found duplicate references ![edit]

In the last revision I edited, I found duplicate named references, i.e. references sharing the same name, but not having the same content. Please check them, as I am not able to fix them automatically :)

Name Change[edit]

When & why?

Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.240.42.230 (talk) 13:48, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, absolutely needed. I mean, it's the first thing I looked for after seeing "born Arthur Davenport" in the article. dariopy (talk) 15:05, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Me, too. I was surprised to not see any information about it. Given that his father's name was also changed, and his mother is known as "Queen Mother," my guess would be that his parents joined or founded a religious order when he was young. I will try to locate and add some information if I get a chance. --DavidK93 (talk) 13:07, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah I was looking for that also. Anyone know? --Metallurgist (talk) 23:40, 16 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]


Hello. I found a source where they explain the name change. Took about 7 seconds, using  :::: google.

That actually raises as many questions as it answers, in that it atributes the name change to the subject's mother after she divorced his father. Yet on this page it says his father is "David Fattah (born Russell Davenport)..." It would seem unlikely that the divoced husband would adopt his ex-wife's affection of a new name. Is it not the case that Russell Davenport is the natural father, and David Fattah is perhaps the step-father? Nick Cooper (talk) 10:52, 18 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

COI[edit]

It appears that a major contributor to this article has a professional connection to its subject. Logical Cowboy (talk) 22:16, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Son Chip Fattah - fraud charges[edit]

His son Chaka "Chip" Fattah, Jr. is awaiting trial on charges of bank, tax, and wire fraud, theft, and making false statements to obtain and settle loans

Wives[edit]

Who are his first two wives?

"Chip Fattah — reed-thin and always smiling — can talk a blue streak. But he paused, atypically, when asked how long he had lived with his father, a 10-term Philadelphia Democrat, before his parents divorced. His sister, Fran, is a lawyer running for city judge. Fattah Sr., 58, also has two young daughters with his third wife, local TV anchor Renee Chenault-Fattah." Link 12.180.133.18 (talk) 11:13, 23 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Renee is the mother of his two daughters Cameron and Chandler. Who are the mothers of Chaka Jr ("Chip") and Frances? 12.180.133.18 (talk) 11:16, 23 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

2016 Primary[edit]

Fattah has three opponents in the PA Democratic Primary and the endorsement of Democratic County Committee, but he is awaiting trial. Deborah Williams will oppose the nominee in November.--DThomsen8 (talk) 11:58, 26 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This article became less neutral on Christmas Eve[edit]

I was patrolling for vandalism, and I saw an editor delete massive amounts of text that they claim were biased. I personally agree with their sentiment. Further investigating reveals that these less-than-neutral edits were made by PHILA19147 on Christmas Eve. I do not want to revert back to the version before Christmas Eve, because some of the edits were pretty good. Should I revert back anyway? Scorpions13256 (talk) 16:22, 26 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Scorpions13256: I've just read through that editor's edits and they're certainly ... something. I'm in favour of reverting it wholesale to the last revision before Christmas Eve: this revision by CLCStudent. Since that editor's edits, only one edit was made that wasn't reverted, which was made by a bot and made only cosmetic changes (no offence to the bot's operators). It isn't worth it to parse through the editor's individual edits to see which are redeemable. Sdrqaz (talk) 20:57, 26 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Done. That was the revision I had in mind too. Scorpions13256 (talk) 21:31, 26 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Scorpions13256: Great, thanks. The lead was quite alarming and it just got worse and worse. Sdrqaz (talk) 21:35, 26 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Chaka Fattah[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Chaka Fattah's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "Generalelection":

  • From 2018 United States House of Representatives elections in Pennsylvania: "2018 General Election: Representative in Congress". Pennsylvania Secretary of State. November 6, 2018. Retrieved November 12, 2018.
  • From 2016 United States House of Representatives elections in Pennsylvania: "Pennsylvania 2016 General Election – November 8, 2016 Official Results". Pennsylvania Secretary of State. November 8, 2016. Retrieved December 28, 2016.
  • From 2014 United States House of Representatives elections in Pennsylvania: "Pennsylvania Elections - Office Results".

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 19:01, 1 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]
