Orphaned references in Mike Thompson (California politician)

Latest comment: 3 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Mike Thompson (California politician)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: moved. Consensus among most users that the California politician's pageview lead was sufficient to constitute a WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. (closed by non-admin page mover) ModernDayTrilobite (talk • contribs) 20:48, 2 April 2025 (UTC)Reply

Mike Thompson (California politician) → Mike Thompson – WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. Pageviews Analysis shows that this Mike Thompson has the highest traffic out of all available Mike Thompson's. Jeffrey34555 (talk) 04:52, 4 March 2025 (UTC)Reply

Support but note that it's not enough for the page to have the highest traffic out of all available Mike Thompson's, it needs to have higher traffic than all others taken together... which is exactly what the analysis shows. Andrewa (talk) 05:30, 11 March 2025 (UTC)Reply

Oppose. No primary topic by long-term significance. Serving American politicians are not automatically primary topic just because they have more pageviews. -- Necrothesp (talk) 16:11, 11 March 2025 (UTC)Reply
