• ... that Kris Lindahl's billboards have been reacted to with anger, annoyance, and fandom?

• Source: Keller, Aaron (28 October 2019). "Wrapping Our Arms Around Kris Lindahl's Divisive Ad Strategy". Twin Cities Business. Retrieved 8 May 2026. ...what’s perhaps even more curious is the public reaction. Angry. Mocking. The outrage has even led to the creation of a dedicated Kris Lindahl category on Reddit.

Since Lindahl’s ads were first introduced in 2017, they have garnered both local fandom and annoyance from some Minnesotans who feel like they can’t escape the billboards.

Overall: Two sentences are unreferenced because they were removed by an editor as "contributor blog post" and "written by a PR agency". The article has no copyright violations, is long enough, new enough, and neutral. The hook is reliably referenced and interesting. SL93 (talk) 16:25, 24 May 2026 (UTC)

• Thank you. This is approved. SL93 (talk) 14:46, 7 June 2026 (UTC)

Really?

It's hard to believe this is a Wikipedia article. The research seems all about-the-contemporary (no birthdate?), the subjects notability is evanescent (who will care in 2050?), and it smacks of (self?) promotion. Nonya's kid (talk) 16:06, 21 June 2026 (UTC)

If you have objections to the subject's notability, please point you where you think he fails to meet Wikipedia's notability policy. ~Darth Stabro^{Talk • Contribs} 16:20, 21 June 2026 (UTC)

I thought "anger and annoyance" was redundant and that "was met with fandom" made for unusual wording. – MrPersonHumanGuy (talk) 19:00, 21 June 2026 (UTC)
