Talk:Donald Trump: Difference between revisions

:This is a misuse of the edit request facility; please don't do it again. Second sentence at [[WP:EDITREQ]]: "Requests should be accompanied by a clear and specific description of the requested change, and [[Wikipedia:Consensus|consensus]] should be obtained before requesting changes that are likely to be controversial." It doesn't say edit requests are an acceptable way to seek consensus, and no reading of the guidance could be taken to imply that. ''Use things as they are designed and meant to be used.''{{pb}}(If there is to be any hope of improvement, I think editors need to stop legitimizing misuse by responding to the substance, as was done above. Edit request is NOT an alternative way to open a discussion; rather, edit requests are for things that ''don't need discussion''.){{pb}}{{small|(I've long believed that edit requests have little utility or value at articles like this one. 1. Very little is uncontroversial and doesn't need discussion. 2. There are always extended-confirmed editors around, so there is no need to add the talk page to a maintenance category ([[:Category:Wikipedia extended-confirmed-protected edit requests]]) to summon such an editor. At such articles, cost exceeds benefit. At [[WP:VPI]], I recently proposed the ability to turn off the edit request facility at individual articles. I got no support, so we're stuck with the status quo.)}} &#8213;[[User:Mandruss|<span style="color:#775C57;">'''''Mandruss'''''</span>]]&nbsp;[[User talk:Mandruss|<span style="color:#888;">&#9742;</span>]] 03:00, 22 September 2024 (UTC)

::Mea culpa, I'll ignore them from now on. I didn't know about the EDITREQ information page, and I'm pretty sure Reese didn't either.
