Former president Joe Biden was born in Scranton. I have added a short paragraph about that, as this is an important part of Scranton's history.Vanleos (talk)16:44, 8 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I removed your edits both times as Joe Biden is already included under Notable People. Any other information regarding Joe Biden should be included on his own wikipage and not under the Scranton page.Chalon10 (talk)22:23, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I have just added sources to the section on 19th century Scranton, which previously had none.Vanleos (talk)14:41, 14 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Stop adding Topics that are just a redundant notification of your edit updates to the Talk page What. The talk page is for discussing improvements to the page. Your notes on the "Edit Summary" when you make an edit are sufficient.Chalon10 (talk)18:51, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
