Recently an editor redirected this pagespace toward that of the US Senate race in which the subject is currently involved. The editor asserted this subject doesn't meet WP:GNG and redirected "per WP:POLITICIAN." Today a new editor reverted that redirect and labeled the redirect vandalism. I've taken the liberty of admonishing the new editor for the label, and suggested we discuss this, since at least one editor disagrees with the change. For the record, I'm the page creator, though I didn't notice the redirect until it was reverted today. Despite my prior work on this page, I have no dog in this hunt; I created the page from sources (some of which have been removed) found during the time of the subject's media involvement with Supreme Court nomination battles in the Senate. The subject seemed to be a paid advocate in favor of confirming Bush nominees, and has since seemed to be a paid advocate opposing Obama nominees. (The advocacy organization with which she has association was formerly the "Judicial Confirmation Network" and then renamed itself "Judicial Crisis Network" after President Obama was elected.) While I'm making no accusation, it's clear that this is an issue related to a political election outcome, the election occurring less than two weeks from today. What do others think about the redirect? BusterD ( talk) 23:25, 25 October 2012 (UTC)

Keep this article. Wendy Long was worthy of a Wikipedia attention long before she ran for the United States Senate and there is no reason to delete the article about her. Mike Gaynor ( talk) 17:31, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Since November 10, there has been a concerted effort, made entirely by ip editors with little or no editing history, to insert negative information concerning the subject's minor child, a son named Arthur. Several registered editors and at least one ip editor have attempted to remove this material, and each time the material has been reinserted, occasionally with supporting citation from reliable sources. I made an effort to discuss this with one such ip, and was rebuffed. Afterwards I took this to the BLP noticeboard and an uninvolved editor there chose to remove the material. Just now it was again reinserted. Let us discuss this on the talk page as opposed to edit warring in live BLP pagespace. For my part, I do not dispute the truthfulness of the information inserted; instead I question the need to document this trivial family incident in an encyclopedia article about the subject. I consider such insertion a violation of BLP policy, violating both WP:BLPNAME and WP:NOTPUBLICFIGURE. I am also concerned about the concerted effort about inserting this apparently trivial material and wonder if sock puppet behavior is also involved. Would others care to weigh in?

Lede is not the place for table statistics. Percentages and race losses should be included within the proper section: 2012 and 2016 Senate races. Currently, lede does not properly comply with WP:LEAD in a "clear, accessible style with a neutral point of view". Proposing to reduce race stats and focus (re-instating within the article) on subject's personal life and career. Please bring comments and concerns here before reverting. Thank you.
