maryland senate 2018
hi, can you please update the 2018 maryland senate race? Cardin (D) actually won Dorchester County after absentees were counted & results were certified. VietPride10 (talk) 20:56, 22 December 2018 (UTC)

1990 Mississippi Senate election map
Hi! I noticed you changed the map on 1990 United States Senate election in Mississippi - originally, all the counties were red, but yours had Wayne county with no vote. I was wondering if you had a source for that - I can't find anything online about county breakdowns for that election, but think that this kind of result warrants some sort of citation. Anyway, if you could provide one, that'd be a huge help Green  green  green  red 19:52, 3 March 2019 (UTC)

I found the results here. OurCampaigns is very credible, and I've found this kind of occurrence in a few races across the South without challengers: rather than even list the race on the ballot, a county may exclude the race if it's uncontested. I feel this better represents the true results.

Let me know if you have any thoughts!

1972 Delaware Senate election map
Hey, I noticed that you uploaded File:US Senate 1972 Delaware by State House District.svg, a State House results map for the 1972 Senate election in Delaware. I was wondering if you could possibly provide any sources for the map, in terms of margins and the district borders, as there are none listed on its page. Thanks! -- Politicsfan4 (talk) 05:57, 23 December 2020 (UTC)

Invitation for comment
Hello!

I noticed your edits about topics relating to the Minnesota Legislature, and I wonder if you'd be interested in this proposal for a Minnesota Legislature task force, as I'm trying to get a few people on board before starting work on organizing it.

I appreciate your time and I hope to hear back from you!

Edina, Minnesota
Please stop adding the same sloppy edit to Edina, Minnesota. I looked "streetcar suburb" in your first source, and "WASP" in your second and third source, and found nothing. Maybe you mixed up your sources someplace, I don't know. But please take some time to be sure that every line of text is supported by an inline citation. I know these are good faith edits and the information you are trying to add will improve the article, but you need to put your whole edit into your sandbox and fix it. Thanks for your cooperation.

 * I just moved some sources around and added one. Hopefully this answers your problem. I understand the Edina page has been the object of much bad-faith editing in the past, so I appreciate your close monitoring of it. SpeedMcCool (talk) 19:53, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

Duplicate reference name errors
Hi,

When you add new reference and you begin the reference with a ref name that already exists it creates a duplicate reference name error.

For example, ref name=":1" was re-used causing an error here and ref name=":1" was re-used causing an error here

You could either use a unique ref name or if the reference is only used once, use no ref name at all. Thank you. Kaltenmeyer (talk) 21:27, 24 October 2022 (UTC)
