Drive-by tagging
editWhen you tag someone as non-notable when their article makes a long assertion for notability, or when you make a fact request on a sentence with a citation, it comes across as a bit off. Please use edit summaries when doing such things, so people know what your complaint is. --Golbez (talk) 17:55, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
- If you think the page is too long, then don't challenge the notability, say it's too long. =p As for Alaska, article III section 19 of the constitution: "The governor is commander-in-chief of the armed forces of the State." --Golbez (talk) 15:37, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
Clint_Catalyst COI concerns

Sears Tower
editI made that edit because "popularly known as" is inappropriate for the first line of a Wikipedia article about a landmark. See Rogers Centre. Obviously the new name would not stick with the public, but Wikipedia is meant to give the fact, and the fact is, it is called Willis Tower, and it is formerly known as Sears Tower. The first line should remain "formerly known as", and later in the article it states that the name was not well received and many still call the structure "Sears Tower". Otherwise, it comes across like a snide edit by someone irritated with the new name. --Anyquestions (talk) 18:22, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

Per WP:LEADCITE we usually don't put cites in the lead if they're in the body. --NeilN talk to me 17:12, 6 August 2013 (UTC)
