Hello, I'm AntiDionysius. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit to Fred Keller (politician) seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. ''It does seem like a controversy section concerning this issue is worth adding to the article. However, your initial version had some issues surrounding tone; perhaps read our guides on striking the right encyclopaedic tone. Additionally, one of your sources was an opinion article, which aren't good sources. If you'd like to re-write the section, try finding an alternate source.''

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. ''As before. "Trying to deceive the American people" is not the kind of language we can have here.'' Drmies (talk) 16:10, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
 * If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
 * If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.


 * I am new to Wikipedia and not familiar with all the rules. Can you give me some guidance about what the proper words should be for the scenario where Fred Keller was trying to help Trump come up with a fake reason for asking Raffensperger to find 11,780 votes? I do not want to break any Wikipedia rules. I am just trying to find out what the proper words should be for this? RuralVoter (talk) 16:16, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
 * It's not that complicated: stick to the facts. "Attempted to deceive" is a judgment on the man's intentions, which none of us can make, unless he said it--in which case it should be prefaced by "he said he..." or whatever. I didn't look for the opinion article that AntiDionysius mentioned, but I'd follow the links they placed here and judge your sources accordingly.One more thing: separate "Controversies" sections are discouraged. I think you should try to fit those bits into the chronology of his career. Good luck. Oh, my gold standard for editing in this area is set by User:Muboshgu, who knows how to write these articles, and can also help you write up baseball articles. I know, boring stuff.

 * I already changed the source from the editorial to another regular article. RuralVoter (talk) 16:22, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
