John F. Gaffney
- ... that a 1994 John F. Gaffney proposal would have allowed Donald Trump to own four Atlantic City casino licenses, even though all three of his casino properties there had recent bankruptcy filings?
- Reviewed: Textile industry in China
Created by Alansohn (talk). Self-nominated at 13:05, 7 September 2016 (UTC).
Could we please either use a hook not involving Trump, or delay putting this on the front page of Wikipedia until after the November 8 election, so as not to look like a violation of WP:DYKNOT Template:Tq Right now, Trump's business deals and political affiliations are part of the campaign dialogues, both directions, and he's under investigation for same. Of course, Trump is a small part of this article, so maybe there could be a hook that doesn't mention him. — Maile (talk) 15:36, 17 September 2016 (UTC)
- The hook stands on its own, is properly sourced and is the best hook of the article. If Template:U hadn't been making blatant bad faith assumptions about my motives and had taken a look at my recent editing history in systematically creating new articles for state legislators, perhaps the DYKNOT accusation would have been eliminated and the DYK nomination might have been evaluated on its merits, rather than on one editor's preconceptions. Wikipedia isn't supposed to be censored, but I'm willing to wait until November 9, if necessary, to deal with these bad faith allegations. Alansohn (talk) 15:35, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
- Template:U you have misunderstood. Your personal abilities and motives have never been in question. And neither has the accuracy of the article or hook. Wikipedia has a standard rule about elections at WP:DYK Template:Tq. Since my original posting here, a consensus has been reached to extend that 30 days to be effective immediately. This is not about you personally, or any reflection on your work. You are welcome to join the current conversation at Here. No bad faith. — Maile (talk) 16:21, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
- Template:U, fair enough. If a moratorium has been or will be imposed, then I will wait until November 9. Alansohn (talk) 16:27, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
