Michigan gubernatorial election, 2018
Regarding this reversion, did you notice that my edit corrected several errors/issues with the article? Namely: Since you don't seem to want to explain why you've reverted me in your edit summaries, I'm confused why you don't want me to improve and correct the various issues in the article.  Imzadi 1979  →   00:48, 1 June 2015 (UTC)
 * The infobox had the wrong title ("Michigan gubernatorial election, 2014") at the top.
 * The 2018 election will not be held on November 4, 2014.
 * MOS:HEAD says that we are supposed to use sentence case for headings, and last time I checked "Republican primary" was not a proper noun just as the title of the article is "Michigan gubernatorial election", also not a proper noun.
 * There were headings in the article with the same title, which causes issues. By moving the one declined candidate into a separate section, the two "Potential" sub-sections could be merged into their parent sections to resolve the issue.
 * The various sources are news sources, and the citation template documentation says that cite web is for online sources, that lack another appropriate template, like cite news. It's minor, but we might as well get the details right.
 * I also standardized a few citation practices early so that others will follow them later, like using title case (which is the preferred style for titles in Citation Style 1 templates like cite news. I also standardized to the name of the website, MLive, and noted its publisher, Booth Newspapers and had all authors in the usual "Last, First" order used in citations.


 * In every page for political races, "Declined" candidates are their own sub-sections under both the Republican and Democratic (and any other party) sections. It is never it's own section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by JoeM3120 (talk • contribs) 02:59, 1 June 2015 (UTC)
 * OK, so if I restored all of the rest of my edits, except that one, even though duplicate headings causes issues, you'd stop reverting me?  Imzadi 1979  →   03:37, 1 June 2015 (UTC)

Appointer or Nominator
A previous edit summary of yours read as such, "Federal judges are nominated by the president and condfirmed by the Senate, not appointed.". Your statement is in error from both a Constitutional and statutory point of view. There are THREE Constitutional steps. 1. Nomination, when the President sends the person's name to the Senate. 2. Confirmation (i.e. advice and consent) of the Senate is given. 3. Appointment. Once the Senate consents, the President APPOINTS the person to office by granting them a commission which is evidence of their appointment. The Senate's consent does NOT put the person in office and the President can, if he wishes, decline to appoint the person once Senate consent is given. It is the act of the President in appointing (granting the commission), that actually puts the person in office, NOT the action of Senate in giving advice and consent. Therefore, appointer is the more appropriate field and all arguments to the contrary are clearly in error. Additionally, both the Constitution and all federal statutes clearly use the word appoint. I am not going to revert at this time to avoid edit warring, but I intend to push this issue further in other venues. Safiel (talk) 22:03, 21 November 2017 (UTC)
 * I agree. In just about every article we have on a federal judge, the article indicates each of these dates - nomination, approval by the Senate, receipt of commission. If we find an article that is missing any point of this information, we add it. It is the commission which is the final act causing the recipient to become a federal judge. bd2412  T 22:44, 21 November 2017 (UTC)
