This is being posted on your talk page where you can receive messages from other Wikipedians and discuss issues and respond to questions. At the end of each message you will see a signature left by the editor posting. This is done by signing with four tildes ( ~ ) or by pressing or  in the editing interface toolbox, located just above the editing window (when editing). You won't need to sign your contributions to articles themselves; you only need to when using talk pages. If you have any questions or face any initial hurdles, feel free to contact me on my talk page and I will do what I can to assist or give you guidance.

Franklin data
I reverted your revert, because the version you wished to restore had population estimate data that was probably wrong. 2018 population estimates will not be available from the US Census Bureau until this coming spring. I highly doubt that the numbers came from an actual published source. Please be aware that you are flirting with the three revert rule as well. Please take your concerns to the Franklin talk page. --Ken Gallager (talk) 18:05, 4 January 2019 (UTC)
 * I see you also used your revert of my population estimate data to delete a paragraph from the city's history and replace it with some civic booster material. You will need to discuss this on the city's talk page. --Ken Gallager (talk) 18:09, 4 January 2019 (UTC)

Hi Ken, as Franklin City Watcher, I work for the City and the numbers are accurate as we conducted the last census count. I am new to Wikipedia and am concerned with the historic information added to the description of current day Franklin. It seems to be a trend for many southern cities near us as someone is adding the history from the Civil War and the Civil Rights movement to the introductory area. I do have permission to add information from the City Website. It seems you are a Wikipedia expert, maybe we can take this conversation offline and you can assist us with correcting the proper placement for such information.
