Hello Wikipedians, I'm Ellen. In the next few weeks, I'm going to be working on this article as part of the U.S. Public Public Policy WikiProject. I'm writing everything in good faith, and trying to only post a little bit at a time. If you have any issues with something I've posted, I'd love to know why (or what I could do to improve it). I already have a great mentor, but I could use all the help I can get with this :) Barkerel ( talk) 22:59, 24 February 2011 (UTC) reply

Hey Ellen, I looked at your article and only changed one thing that I saw. I don't know if you are having trouble finding information or if you're just gathering your information first before putting it into the article, but so far the article is still small. I didn't find many problems though, so good work!

This is coming along! One thing that would help, if you've found sources for it, would be a few paragraphs giving an overview of the history of retention elections nationwide, rather than (or in addition to) separately by state. -- Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation ( talk) 18:14, 6 April 2011 (UTC) reply
