I'm reaffirming my previous objection to including tweets as endorsements. I specifically object to
this tweet from
Natalia Cordova-Buckley that says "So proud of you @TulsiGabbard !!!
But mostly, I’m so grateful to have a candidate like you."
. This is not worthy of inclusion in an encyclopedia. 02:01, 17 November 2019 (UTC)
That’s an explicit endorsement. How is that objectionable? That’s ridiculous that it’s objectionable. Tulsi isn’t my candidate but there appears no other reason to object to explicit endorsements like that Capriaf ( talk) 20:00, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
Current DNC members Laphonza Butler and Emmy Ruiz are listed under the "DNC members" section as having endorsed Kamala Harris. Both sources state Butler and Ruiz have been hired by the Harris team and are working for Harris' 2020 bid. I don't see anything in either source suggesting Butler and Ruiz have formally endorsed Harris. I don't believe being hired for a campaign and endorsing it are one in the same. Is there a policy or discussion an editor can point to that will clarify if I've misunderstood? What are others' thoughts? -- Kbabej ( talk) 22:06, 30 November 2019 (UTC)
After the closure of this RfC, I've gone back in to remove endorsements by non-notable individuals and endorsements without citations to reliable independent sources. Endorsements by notable organizations do not need to be covered by independent reliable sources, but there was one which did not make an explicit endorsement, so I removed that one, too. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 20:50, 1 December 2019 (UTC)
