Explanation for reverting your edits[edit]
Hi SaveTheRepublic NY19, your edit to 2022 New York's 19th congressional district special election was reverted because:
- It was unsourced. To list your name at candidates' list, we need a source or reference proving the same. It may be in the form of a reliable news article listing you as a candidate or even your FEC filing.
- It was made by yourself and that creates a case of conflict of interest. Specifically the WP:COIPOLITICAL part. Conflict of interest editing is prohibited on Wikipedia. But if you can provide a reference, you can always ask to be list at the article's talk page. An unrelated editor would verify the reference and add you as soon they get time.
Happy editing. —CX Zoom[he/him] (let's talk • {C•X}) 13:56, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
You are wrong. The write-in line on a NY state ballot is left blank for a reason. FEC filing is not required, and neither is an official campaign. There is no COI. Maybe you would be kind enough to add me back to the NY 19 Special Election page? SaveTheRepublic NY19 (talk) 15:15, 8 June 2022 (UTC)
- Sure, I would like to. But if you can provide at least one reliable source, a local newspaper, or TV news web article, etc. We do not include write-in candidates unless they get some minimum coverage by the media which we can include as reference. Because if they can't get any coverage, their candidacy is probably not notable enough for Wikipedia, and would be removed sooner or later. Notice that even Ryan's and Molinaro's candidacies are supported by references, because if they did not have references we would've removed them according to Wikipedia guidelines. —CX Zoom[he/him] (let's talk • {C•X}) 13:12, 9 June 2022 (UTC)
- Notability guidelines do not apply to content within articles or lists
- Shortcuts
- The criteria applied to the creation or retention of an article are not the same as those applied to the content inside it. The notability guidelines do not apply to contents of articles or lists (with the exception of lists that restrict inclusion to notable items or people). Content coverage within a given article or list (i.e. whether something is noteworthy enough to be mentioned within the article or list) is governed by the principle of due weight, balance, and other content policies. For additional information about list articles, see Notability of lists and List selection criteria.

- Even if notability guidelines do not apply to candidacies, the main sticking point for me is Wikipedia:Verifiability. If we can't verify what you're adding, which we should usually be able to do by looking at the sources cited, then there's no reason to keep the unverifiable content. "Candidate made revision", meanwhile, is inherently unverifiable for many reasons, not least of which is that it's yet another statement that has to be verified too. —twotwofourtysix(My talk page and contributions) 23:17, 11 June 2022 (UTC)
Federal Reserve[edit]
Time to end it.
Probably worth adding somewhere at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Reserve
