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)
