"Political positions" section needs to be reduced
editThis seems excessive detail. --QueenofBithynia (talk) 19:45, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- QueenofBithynia, can you be more specific? What detail there is excessive? And how does this relate to the advert tag you added? – Muboshgu (talk) 22:16, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- I'll admit to not being an expert on US politics, but the detail of each political position seems excessive. Then again, comparing it to (what I assume to be) similar Congresspeople such as AOC, I will admit that I may have been mistaken. And that's a good article. (As for the advert tag, this amount of detail effectively reads as a résumé/CV and an endorsement of these opinions). Sorry to have wasted your time. QueenofBithynia (talk) 22:21, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
- It's not a waste of time. Talk pages are for discussing ways to improve articles. Thank you for your points. Skimming it, there may be some things tightened up or cut. I haven't read it checking for CV/resume properties yet. – Muboshgu (talk) 03:39, 31 March 2022 (UTC)

- It could be more concise. Do we really need a section that a Democratic member of Congress opposes Donald Trump? TFD (talk) 02:39, 31 March 2022 (UTC)
- We don't. I removed it. The fact that it was positioned first shows me that someone stuck it in there with non-neutral intentions. Her impeachment votes could be relevant because impeachment is a BFD. – Muboshgu (talk) 03:41, 31 March 2022 (UTC)
