Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Debbie Amaroso, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Sault Ste. Marie. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

42nd Ontario general election

[edit]

Photos of leaders are not consistent.

PC leader is not smiling, and looking away. NDP leader is also looking away. For impartiality and consistency, should provide similar photos.

Use of Twitter/Facebook/website sources

[edit]

Hi Aaronposner, please be very careful about using Twitter, Facebook and candidate websites as citations, as they aren't considered reliable sources. I understand the frustration of finding proper sources (ex. online newspaper articles, party press releases) for Canadian nomination contestants, as they aren't as well publicized as equivalents in the United States, but unfortunately social media can not be cited.
