You apparently have an agenda, which is to add negative material to articles about US senators who voted against the PACT act. Most of your edits are sourced to primary government sources, and the few secondary sources you've cited are opinion pieces criticizing the senator. Wikipedia is not a place for you to attack biographies of living persons. Consider this your only warning. If you want to add such material, you must go to the article Talk page and get a clear WP:CONSENSUS from experienced editors that the material is reliably sourced, neutral, and sufficiently noteworthy for inclusion in the article. If not, you risk being blocked.--Bbb23 (talk) 12:46, 4 August 2022 (UTC)

Hi Bbb23, Thank you for this only warning! Please let me respond to some of your concerns: 1. To suggest that my additions are negative is to give your own interpretation to neutral information. The senator voted against the bill for one or more reasons and should on balance see its vote as a positive (otherwise he would have voted for the bill). I don’t see how mentioning how a senator voted is objectively a negative for the senator. 2. The references are verifiable, neutral and do not contain original research. 3. The text is solely based on the references. Which support point 1 that the text by itself is neutral. 4. The primary source material used is verifiable and noteworthy. Furthermore they do not fall under description of primary sources that should be avoided (see Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons, Avoid misuse of primary sources). 5. I do believe that the PACT bill is something that has sufficient interest to society to warrant a mention on Wikipedia. Furthermore I also believe that the limited amount of senators voting against the bill, increases the information value to mention it on their page, and not on the page of the senators voting for the bill. I would also not consider adding that a senator believes the earth is round. Likewise with something that is more a GOP vs Democrats issue, I would think that it any mention should be on the page of the political party. 6. You mention that Wikipedia is “not a place for me to attack the biographies of living people”. This implies that I did attack living people, which is like saying that any public official is attacked when you mention their recent voting record. 7. So far I waisted hours of my time to make a good faith contribution and have been accused of making attacks. Feel free to consider this as a substitution of my next financial donation to Wikipedia.

Have a nice day! Enrakort (talk) 14:09, 4 August 2022 (UTC)
