== Twitter split proposal == == split twitter to seperate article ==


I propose that the section ] be split out to ]. It is extremely long and takes up the majority of this article. ] (]) 01:26, 31 July 2020 (UTC) Due to the substantial size of the twitter section, would it be worth splitting it into its own article? ] (]) 10:49, 17 February 2024 (UTC)

Pinging {{ping|Finnusertop|GHcool|JFG|Axisixa|Nanophosis}} (previous participants of a ]) ] (]) 00:19, 9 August 2020 (UTC)
*'''Oppose''' pretty much the entire article is Donald Trump's Twitter activity. The remaining sections are a few paragraphs and don't add much to the article length-splitting them out of the article would not alter the length and create a very awkward stub, "Donald Trump's activity on social media (excluding Twitter)".<br>The real reason this article is long is because Trump says a lot of crazy stuff on Twitter and we document it, it's that simple. If you have a problem with that, take it up with him and see how far you get. So it's a given that the article is long, but that's not a problem in my view because it's well organised and it's possible to find sections you care about. ] (]) 10:00, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

* '''Oppose''' - As others have said, Trump's activity outside of Twitter is not worthy of attention, and I doubt any of it is actually written by him anyway. A better solution would be shortening the article, which is more of a melange of certain tweets that have gained notoriety than an summation of his Twitter activity - I doubt we need three paragraphs on Britain First; nobody remembers that. At the very least, Twitter shouln't be a top-level heading, it makes the article very difficult to read - it could be laid out more like ] instead. - <span class="nowrap" style="font-weight:bold;font-size:85%;transform:rotate(358deg);display: inline-block;">] <span style="opacity:.5;padding-left:2px">] ]</span></span> 06:16, 11 August 2020 (UTC)

:::Personally, I don't think it makes much sense if the article still covers other social media platforms. But none of them are really that relevant anyway, outside of his old Youtube videos, so they could be removed or relegated to a minor mention/paragraph. - <span class="nowrap" style="font-weight:bold;font-size:85%;transform:rotate(358deg);display: inline-block;">] <span style="opacity:.5;padding-left:2px">] ]</span></span> 03:59, 12 August 2020 (UTC)

== Comment by 145.53.114.244 == == "Enemy of the people" ==
What has happened to Misplaced Pages. When exactly did Misplaced Pages pages become as loaded as certain far left news articles? I am deeply saddened by this turnover. Misplaced Pages used to be the figurehead of the internet, the manifestation of the fantastic dream that the internet would serve to promote free speech and the spread of knowledge. Can you recover, please? <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding ] comment added by ] (]) 17:54, 29 October 2020 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

: In answer to your question "When exactly did Misplaced Pages pages become as loaded as certain far left news articles", the answer is around November. It was pretty good before then. Now it is filled with information from only one side, with no coverage of opposing viewpoints at all. For this reason it has become useless for me as a resource on subjects like this one. It's become polluted like our air by factories churning out smog and smoke. Really sad. It's a shame, it was really valuable. ] (]) 07:58, 9 January 2021 (UTC)

== Tweets published on @POTUS ==

Hi ], thank you for your edit on the usage of @POTUS over the last day. However, you used Newsweek as a source, which is generally not reliable according to ]. I was able to find a Washington Post article to back up the first sentence of your edit, but unfortunately no reliable source for the second ({{tq|In these tweets, he complained about Twitter's ban and accused the social media platform, without evidence, of colluding in a conspiracy with the Democratic Party and "the Radical Left" to get him banned, while repeating the rhetoric that first got him banned from his main Twitter account}}). While I am not disputing that this may be true, I was wondering if you could help me find a ]-compliant source to back this claim up?--] (]) 15:57, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
:I was able to find an article from US News, which is considered reliable, that clarifies the situation surrounding his circumventions . I would suggest changing the paragraph to this:
:Trump tried to circumvent this ban by briefly making a series of tweets on the @POTUS Twitter account, but the posts were deleted within minutes of them being tweeted. Trump also tried to circumvent the ban by posting a statement on the @TeamTrump campaign Twitter account in which he complained about Twitter's ban and accused the social media platform, without evidence, of colluding in a conspiracy with the Democratic Party and "the Radical Left" to get him banned, while repeating the rhetoric that first got him banned from his main Twitter account. This account was also banned after the statement from Trump was posted.

== New Twitter? ==

Is perhaps https://twitter.com/45_POTUS_Trump a new sockpuppet account of Trumps? ] (]) 18:40, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
:Hi there, any ] to back that up?--] (]) 19:53, 9 January 2021 (UTC)


== Does Twitter really "request" the removal of Tweets? ==
I changed the wording from "request" to "demand" in the section that talks about the temporary suspension of Mr Trump's Twitter account, because the fact is, when Twitter forces a user to delete certain tweets in order to have their account reinstated, it is inaccurate to describe such a thing as a "request". It is not "pov" (point of view, or mere opinion) to describe the fact that he had to remove the tweets to get his account reinstated as coercion. It is more accurate than saying "request", which, if you look it up in the dictionary, means "asking politely". Contrast that with "order" or "demand", which involves an element of ].

== Is Sockpuppeting the correct term? ==

Hello, UK reader here. I'm reading this sentence: "''Allies of Trump who posted on his behalf, including''........" and noticed that the hyperlink in "who posted on his behalf" is linked to a wikipedia article on sockpuppets. Is this correct? I thought from other media articles that the people who posted for the (former) US President after he was banned did so of their own accord and not using false accounts. It struck me as the wrong link. The external articles I read on Gary Coby said he renamed his Twitter account himself and no false accounts were created. Is that sockpuppeting?

In the "Satire and archives" section, please delete the first paragraph, which currently reads 'In May 2017, Trump misspelled the word "coverage" as "covfefe," which quickly turned into a meme on the Internet.'

split twitter to seperate article

Due to the substantial size of the twitter section, would it be worth splitting it into its own article? Elizzaflanagan221 (talk) 10:49, 17 February 2024 (UTC)

Seconded; handle this according to WP:Summary style; spin off Use of Twitter/X by Donald Trump - Altenmann >talk 18:05, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

"Enemy of the people"

Please see Talk:Enemy of the people#Donald Trump. - Altenmann >talk 17:56, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

Here you go: Donald Trump's conflict the media . It looks nobody else cares. - Altenmann >talk 04:22, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 16 August 2024 use tweet ref-name not abuse dummy ref

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.
|ref = {{dummy reference|2}}+|ref-name = TweetrealDonaldTrump_2
|ref = {{dummy reference|3}}+|ref-name = TweetrealDonaldTrump_3
|ref = {{dummy reference|4}}+|ref-name = TweetrealDonaldTrump_4
|ref = {{dummy reference|5}}+|ref-name = TweetrealDonaldTrump_5

This actually shows the clickable ref with the URL and is the proper way to avoid cite errors with multiple tweets. 142.113.140.146 (talk) 11:52, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

 Done. Thank you for your contributions. — BerryForPerpetuity (talk) 12:31, 16 August 2024 (UTC)

Twitter followers?

In the lede, it says he had 88.9 million followers when he was banned from Twitter, but later in the body it says 88.7 million. Both statements are cited, but which is correct? - Adolphus79 (talk) 00:43, 5 October 2024 (UTC)

Mentioning Trumps hacked passwords.

I noticed that it is alleged that the twitter account password was used in the passed on LinkedIn. Is it ok to place on Misplaced Pages a password he may use again? 2605:8D80:681:8319:B135:B164:FA5D:A5FB (talk) 01:17, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
