Howdy. Sorry to bother y'all again, but I was considering rephrasing the part about Yang's "support" from the alt-right. That paragraph currently starts off with this:
According to the media, Yang has a large following on /pol/, a forum on 4chan that is notorious for its alt-right politics, though Yang himself has denounced any support from the alt-right.
I was considering changing it to this:
Following his sudden rise in notability, Yang attracted the interest of some prominent alt-right figures and many users of /pol/, a forum on 4chan that is notorious for its alt-right politics.
This is for several reasons:
The "Yang himself has denounced any support from the alt-right" should be made into its own sentence, I think. I was also considering adding this article as a source.
I know this probably seems minor, but because it's a potentially touchy subject, I wanted to discuss it with some of y'all first. Silver181 ( talk) 02:36, 26 August 2019 (UTC)
Yang's policy does not contain a public option. The sources provided do not confirm that, and it also seems to be a case of WP:SYNTH. There are however plenty of sources stating that indeed his policy does not contain a public option. I will rephrase that so that it's factual, unless someone can point me in the direction of a source that confirms that. BeŻet ( talk) 10:43, 6 April 2020 (UTC)
I have now changed that section to reflect what sources are really saying (after he released his plan in December 2019). BeŻet ( talk) 12:29, 9 April 2020 (UTC)
Greetings. I was just curious about what people's thoughts were about the continued presence of the "excessive amount of intricate detail" template message at the top of the page. It seems to me that most of the minutiae about random rallies and interviews and such has already been gutted. What more should be trimmed down for the template to be removed? The only thing that I can think of is *maybe* the debate section? But none of the debates are described in particularly "excessive" detail in my opinion. Silver181 ( talk) 16:53, 9 October 2021 (UTC)
