Election might be a bit of a misnomer since direct election to the senate didn't occur until 1914. I realize that technically the title's correct, and it probably should stay as is, but maybe you'll consider putting in a note about the 17th amendment's change to the process, or some similar recognition.
In a related vein, I think this vein of articles is valuable, but perhaps we could add more to the core article template, that might help the stub building process. Let me know if I can help. Shadowjams (talk) 08:55, 1 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Let's try something, since you're making new articles (THANK YOU, btw). Let's be consistent about how many seats are in each of the Senate Composition charts. I'd like to try 20 seats per row. Plus, let's put the smallest (third) parties in the middle between Dems & republicans. See what I've just done at United States Senate elections, 1858. —Markles 02:57, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've noticed a few more of your additions since my comment above, and all I can say is that these are great additions to the encyclopedia, and thank you for your hard work. This is exactly the kind of solid article creation the project needs. I wish there were more dedicated mass-edit editors that made real contributions like this. Let me know if I can help.

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, United States declaration of war upon Mexico. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Mexican-American War. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Mexican-American War - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.
If you think that the article you created should remain separate, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. TheLongTone (talk) 07:46, 15 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
