Article space

Perhaps you could move these to either a "Notes", "References", or "External links" section on the article page, using {{cite web}} or {{cite book}}?—GoldRingChip 12:27, 22 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I might do it when I have time. In the meantime, I am adding knowledge and facts to this page, and all you are doing is adding red links and circular redirects. Perhaps you might add something worthwhile? Marplesmustgo (talk) 20:24, 23 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Contributions

If it is not already obvious, I have contributed to this talk page in my own name and also through the IP addresses 31.221.118.100 92.1.71.182 and 88.104.148.211 to create the best resource I can on this election. Up against us we have old ColdRinc^[1] adding nothing but irrelevant boxes and links leading to nowhere. This should be swept away until anyone has the time to add them - not that ColdRinc has any original research to add. Marplesmustgo (talk) 20:31, 21 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your contributions to this fantastic article. I am glad you are now contributing through an account instead of anonymous IPs. Keep up the good work!—GoldRingChip 02:56, 22 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
