They are elected in their districts just as any other member is as well as can hold positions on committees and argue.

Stop updating that list it makes the article which is already big enough bigger. The two vacancies without special elections will be listed but the ones that will be held before election day are already listed in their respective section so there is no need to repeat it. That is the end. Besides April 28th is coming about and the article will change soon with Maryland's vacancy being filled and Ohio's primary results. Please stop adding that other info in.

In fact, some other editors and I have been debating this issue already on the talk page. I would definitely like to do this, as I respect the opinions/edits of other editors. However, in order for me to do so, I would appreciate that we discuss this instead of you just making an executive decision (which you do not have the authority to do).

One [[WP:CORPNAME|that is not a company or organization]]. I'll take you at your word if you say you are unconnected with the radio station. That does not address the glib promotional content on your user page. It sounded like a sound bite, and we've all seen enough promo content that we could write ad copy ourselves. We see a lot of it. I assume you will not link to or edit about the radio station. *Assuming the reliable sourcing for all edits issue has been addressed, I think that is no longer a problem.

I have been blocked on Wikipedia for having a username against policy and for advertising. I have explained that I created the username 2 months ago when I made my account, not realizing it was against policy. I also requested to change it. As for the user page, I was not attempting to advertise but instead stating what my edits were focused on. I really meant “I follow the elections and the pandemic”, not encouraging others/advertising. I will change this but I would like to be unblocked. As for the other issues, they have been addressed and I am learning as I improve as an editor. I would just like to continue improving, but I can’t if I’m being blocked with an advertising mistake. Please re instate my account.

They have not made promotional edits to mainspace articles. The "promotional block" was based on their original account name and the unfortunate wording on their user page, both of which have been rectified. They made a number of unsourced edits but eventually understood that they needed to include a citation with their edits and began doing so.

[[User:Lima Bean Farmer|Lima Bean Farmer]] ([[User talk:Lima Bean Farmer#top|talk]]) 17:10, 7 August 2020 (UTC) :This was mentioned to you at the Teahouse and by an admin previously. Mass deletions as you are doing are going to be controversial, especially if sources exist to prove the items you are deleting. The relevant policy is [[WP:UNSOURCED]], where it says "If you think the material is verifiable, you are encouraged to provide an inline citation yourself before considering whether to remove or tag it." This point was explained to you several times before, by myself, another user and an admin: the wiki is not improved by mass deletions of items that are actually factual, so the right thing to do is to verify for yourself as to whether a better source exists. Blasting through articles and doing many mass deletions, as you have done before, is probably something that you should be concerned about.[[User:ThatMontrealIP|ThatMontrealIP]] ([[User talk:ThatMontrealIP|talk]]) 17:37, 7 August 2020 (UTC) ::[[User talk:ThatMontrealIP|ThatMontrealIP]], does this apply to living persons as well?

Then after deleting them, the editors can add them back if they have a better source per [[WP:BURDEN]]. This article does not say that editors are encouraged to do one thing or another, but it clearly says that the burden does lye with the editor who makes the change.

Re [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=List_of_Republicans_who_oppose_the_2020_Donald_Trump_presidential_campaign&type=revision&diff=973817231&oldid=973799196 this edit], and perhaps prior edits to said list, there's a space that you've been adding between the content and citation, for example: <code>–2020)'''[space]'''<nowiki><ref></nowiki></code>. There should be no space between the content and citation, as this is consistent throughout Wikipedia. It should appear like this: <code>–2020)<nowiki><ref></nowiki></code>. Additionally, to conform with [[MOS:ENTO]] I've converted all of the [[dash|dashes]] (<code>-</code>) to en dash, which is <code>–</code>. To locate this specific dash: 1. Look above the edit summary function, 2. press "Wiki markup" on the drop down list, 3. the en-dash is the first dash after "insert". Eg. So if we can turn this: (1986-2004) into → (1986–2004), that would be great! You've been a real asset to Wikipedia, please keep up the great work! kind regards, —[[User:MelbourneStar|<b style="color:#E22">Mel</b><b style="color:#F20">bourne</b><b style="color:#F73">Star</b>]]<span style="color: #FF9F00;">☆</span>[[User talk:MelbourneStar|<sup style="color:#407">'''''talk'''''</sup>]] 11:47, 19 August 2020 (UTC) [[User:MelbourneStar|<b style="color:#E22">Mel</b><b style="color:#F20">bourne</b><b style="color:#F73">Star</b>]]<span style="color: #FF9F00;">☆</span>[[User talk:MelbourneStar|<sup style="color:#407">'''''talk'''''</sup>]], I don’t see an edit summary function.

I don’t see the “minor edit” box either. After I make an edit it comes to a page that says “how did you improve this page” and I can type in an edit summary. None of the other stuff is there. I’m not sure why. Should I ask at the tea house? I don’t want to inconvenience anyone with these improper dashes so I’d like to figure this out before we start editing again. Thank you!

The "minor edit" box will appear directly under the edit summary box. Directly above the edit summary feature is a drop-down menu which lists a number of things, such as: "Wiki markup", "Insert", "Symbols", "Latin", "IPA", and so forth. If you press "wiki markup", next to the drop down menu will appear many different characters/codes that can be used in articles or talk pages, wherever really. The proper dash to use is the first dash shown (indeed, first character shown) once you press "Wiki markup". :::Does that make sense? —[[User:MelbourneStar|<b style="color:#E22">Mel</b><b style="color:#F20">bourne</b><b style="color:#F73">Star</b>]]<span style="color: #FF9F00;">☆</span>[[User talk:MelbourneStar|<sup style="color:#407">'''''talk'''''</sup>]] 05:03, 20 August 2020 (UTC) :::: [[User:MelbourneStar|<b style="color:#E22">Mel</b><b style="color:#F20">bourne</b><b style="color:#F73">Star</b>]]<span style="color: #FF9F00;">☆</span>[[User talk:MelbourneStar|<sup style="color:#407">'''''talk'''''</sup>]], I think you are using a different device which may have more features.
