Hello, Lakeperson! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Dan arndt (talk) 04:44, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, Lakeperson. You can rectify these matters by using inline citations to the source, and using the links from the DNR reference to support specific statements; for example, a recent map shows the depth at 74'-- you can cite to this map. (And the map shows that Stella is to the west, not east of Washington-- that should be clarified.) Good luck. Kablammo (talk) 21:48, 28 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Lake Stella, Minnesota (January 29)

[edit]
Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by CASSIOPEIA was:
This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
 The comment the reviewer left was:
same issue as per previous comment - sources lead to no where

Campbell Lake

[edit]

Lakeperson,

I removed the content you added to Campbell Lake (Carver and McLeod counties, Minnesota) because that article is actually about a different lake near Winsted, not Otter Lake in Hutchinson. The book that the name is referenced to gives the township and section to confirm that. -Olds 403 (talk) 18:03, 13 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

New Germany, Minnesota

[edit]

With this edit at New Germany, Minnesota you said that in 2016, 20 people voted for third parties. What is your source to support this number? Thank you. Magnolia677 (talk) 23:32, 21 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, there are two options for finding how I got 20 voters. First, on that document you can see it states there were 198 total voters in the New Germany precinct, the only precinct for the town. If you then do basic arithmetic you can combine Donald J Trump's 148 votes and Hillary Clinton's 30 votes to reach 178. Knowing from general knowledge that they were the two main parties (DFL and GOP) nominees, you then can combine them to 178 votes. If you then do the basic subtraction of 198-178 you reach 20 voters. If that math is too complex for you, you could also view the vote by party page for New Germany on the MN SOS website. It states the exact same thing. If you have any other questions, please free to contact me instead of removing my edits on pages. This is how I got to my numbers on all my edits however, there is always a slight chance that I made a numerical error in my many calculations. I have not found any thus far but it is possible. I appreciate your concern on this matter.
On the chart, the "total number of persons voting in the precinct" applies to several elections, not just the presidential election. Look to the right and you will see that those 198 voters also voted for their state and federal senators and representatives. The missing 20 simply didn't cast a vote for president. For example, to the right on the chart are the results for the election for US representative for District 6. There, 151 voted for Republican Tom Emmer, and 40 voted for Democrat David Snyder. That means 7 voters abstained out of the 198 voters. Was there a mystery "third party" candidate who took these 7 votes? Magnolia677 (talk) 21:44, 22 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I updated the link to source that clearly shows the voters. My data was still correct.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Bush Lake (Hennepin County, Minnesota), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Mesotrophic. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
