Talk:John Cranley

2013 Mayoral Campaign
I just removed a paragraph that pretty much implied that Cranley was responsible for a lot of things happening on council while he was in office. Maybe he was, but it will all need to be more directly attributed and not just insinuated with a list of good things council did while he was on it. I also added a citation needed tag to one of the first lines. "Leadership" qualities are hard to quantify and should perhaps be left to the biographers of historical characters. Let's keep it clean for election season :-) Bike756 (talk) 22:27, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

Mfields1 has added a paragraph detailing Cranley's recent campaign against Chabot, but it reads just like a campaign site. We can perhaps mention specific complaints about corporate welfare and so on, but we shouldn't state those particular terms as fact, since that'd violate our Neutral point of view policy. – Minh Nguyễn (talk, contribs) 19:01, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

Minh Nguyễn - please compare the selected versions. I did not add the paragraph. I did add the information from the current news about John Cranley's decision to run for Congress. The information has external links to news articles. Look at earlier versions. The original paragraph was added a long time ago. Mfields1 01:15, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

Okay, sorry. [] got messed up a little when you added a line. – Minh Nguyễn (talk, contribs) 09:19, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

An unreferenced tag was added to Catholic Background because this line needs a source "Some analysts have indicated that his opponent's success is due to the conservative sentiment within the district." --KiltedMile 06:47, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

I am not in this Ohio district and have no interest in the election, but I noticed the tag that was added. I included a publication date since the article referenced a publication of 6 years ago. Often Wikipedia articles about political candidates are vandalized and slant the information one way or the other depending on the editor's politics. Where possible references should be current material. Mfields1 23:14, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

More RS
More WP:RS about a poll from Cranley. I'm a bit too tired to try to work in right now:   --David Tornheim (talk) 01:13, 8 April 2017 (UTC)

lede -- American politician
Do we really need to say he is an American politician? I think it is pretty obvious by the context. Hence I reverted. --David Tornheim (talk) 03:55, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
