Reason for reverting changes to Marco Rubio
Hello. I thought I would more clearly explain why I reverted some of your edits. The Marco Rubio article was changed to alter references to Charlie Crist's party from "Independent" to "no party affiliation". Doing that to distinguish 'independent' from the Independent Party of Florida is setting a bad precedent. The term "Independent" is extremely common usage, and is not owned by this Florida group, or the completely unrelated ultra-right wing American Independent Party, or any other group. Additionally, this use of independent is so common, certain Wikipedia templates use the term as a default option, meaning that rewording it breaks formatting. Additionally, as far as I know, nobody is confused that Crist is a member of this smaller party, right? Until there is genuine confusion, I don't think this is helpful.

I've copied the bulk of this to Talk:Marco Rubio where any further discussion should be held. I'm not going to push the point any further. Regardless, I hope you will use the WP:PREVIEW button to make sure your edits don't damage the readability of the article. Thanks Grayfell (talk) 01:28, 10 October 2014 (UTC)
