Acceptance of unreferenced pending change
Hello. You accepted a pending change at Libertarian Party (United States) that changed Jorgensen's popular vote total to a number higher than the one in the cited source. The editor that added it has been trying to edit-war it in and they are the reason the page is now PC-protected. Please be careful in verifying the correctness of pending changes before accepting them. Thanks. ― Tartan357  Talk 05:05, 19 November 2020 (UTC)


 * Hi . Initially, let me start off by apologizing that I didn't spot that.  I reviewed the edit and it is a relatively small change in vote totals and is in close proximity to a source.  So it did not appear to be the sort of edit that is, what I understand to be, the focus of the pending changes review process (i.e., vandalism, BLP issues, copyright violations, patent nonsense, or legal threats/libel) per Reviewing_pending_changes.  In any event, I'm sorry to have waded into this edit war and will try to get a better sense for the context of edits going forward so that this sort of thing doesn't happen again.

 * , no problem, it's an understandable response. Thanks for your reply. ― Tartan357  Talk 07:32, 19 November 2020 (UTC)
 * Personally, I disagreed with the admin's decision to use PC-protection instead of semi-protection to address this issue, for exactly the reasons you brought up. ― Tartan357  Talk 07:39, 19 November 2020 (UTC)
