On Neighborhoods of Minneapolis, you tagged one section with needing citations. Then you tagged the whole article. I removed it from the whole article at the top (which was also placed in the wrong location). Please decide which area would be tagged as needing more reference before being redundant with the usage.

Hi, There is a flag on the article for Temu (company), the most downloaded iPhone app in the United States the last few months. [1] I work there so I have a COI. I have posted Talk:Temu (company)#Request for more clean up and removing flag to deal with the last few issues in cleaning this article up so the flag can be removed. Since you are a member of the WikiProject for Internet, I thought you might possibly be interested in the topic. Thanks in advance for your consideration!

I wish Minneapolis could hold a special celebration for the woman that cared so much about her city that she worked for hundreds of hours to present a Wikipedia article that will be the best of the best! Sectionworker ( talk) 16:52, 11 February 2023 (UTC) |
Dear Susan Lesch,
I am hoping you are doing fine. I have come across the train-wreck that is happening between you and another editor at Minneapolis over a lovely award-winning indigenous restaurant. Such a shame that this is happening to you, someone who seems to have been the trusty caretaker of this article for more time than one can count.
I couldn't help but notice your edit summary on 21:47, 9 February 2023. I used to be a moderately involved editor a while back and have returned (with a new account due to password loss) within the past month after a long hiatus. I am writing to send you my offer of help in editing the Minneapolis article. You have been going through it on your own and I would be happy to aid you. Please let me know if I can ever be of assistance.

Dear Susan,
It is the user who has been assisting with the Minneapolis article. I was advised to create a new account associated with my former one (from a while back that I lost my password to) in order to avoid any confusion. I will be no longer using the other account, per recommendation and will communicating here on this new account clearly showing my connection to my former one.
Let me know that you have received this message and I look forward to continuing working together.

Hi. Good catch on date vs. year. Date is preferred. You are correct. However, on spaces in section headers it is an accessibility aid for people trying to copy the text from headers. Much easier with spaces. No need to remove them. It is also a parsing thing. Carry on. Cheers! {{u|

03:36, 23 February 2023 (UTC)Thank you, Susan, for clarifying the poorly worded sentence in the opening paragraph of the lead a few days ago. It was helpful in making that sentence easier to read.
I do have a few questions though. I was going to post this in the article talk, but I am not auto confirmed yet.
Mainly, I am unsure why we talk about milling and finances in the opening part. Sure, the milling industry made both an architectural and industrial impact on the city, but it is not the most defining factor to 21st century Minneapolitans. Also, per “financial clout”, Minneapolis currently ranks in the top 20 American cities in terms of economic output. It is definitely, according to multiple RS, the largest economic center in the Northern Great Plains and Upper Midwest. However, “financial clout” seems unwarranted since it is nationally not on the same level as multiple other cities (i.e. Boston and Chicago). Should we mention it is the largest economic/cultural center in the region(s) I listed above instead?
Overall, I feel like this lead has been sadly mutilated by the Sockpuppet farm you seem to have dealt with last year. In several ways, it is lacking a very “Minneapolis” feel which makes it fall short in giving readers an overview of the city. I think Boston, which is is FA, does a great job. Any ideas how to fix this?
Feel free to share my thoughts with others.
Always grateful. Your friend, FormerlyJace1 ( talk) 16:15, 23 February 2023 (UTC)
Hi Susan, feel free to ping me if any other strange new accounts turn up here posting about Minneapolis (or anything else for that matter). Cheers Girth Summit (blether) 17:18, 25 February 2023 (UTC)
