== Changing the title of the "Gun Violence" paragraph under the Platform section to "Gun control/Firearms" ==

Similar paragraphs on the articles of other american politicians almost always read "Gun Control" or "Firearms", regardless on their opinions on the matter. Since whether or not the term "Gun Violence" is objective is debatable, I believe the aforementioned terms are more neutral and descriptive, especially the latter. [[User:JezzaWPU|JezzaWPU]] ([[User talk:JezzaWPU|talk]]) 17:29, 16 April 2024 (UTC) <small>— [[User:JezzaWPU|JezzaWPU]] ([[User talk:JezzaWPU|talk]]&#32;• [[Special:Contributions/JezzaWPU|contribs]]) has made [[Wikipedia:Single-purpose account|few or no other edits]] outside this topic. </small>

:I agree. That would be more in line with other Wikipedia articles. [[User:JMM12345|JMM12345]] ([[User talk:JMM12345|talk]]) 19:10, 2 July 2024 (UTC)

: It does not appear that the section addresses any measures that would be anti-violence ''without'' being specifically gun-control oriented (e.g. counseling or other intervention for the violence-prone). [[User:BD2412|<span style="background:gold">'''''BD2412'''''</span>]] [[User talk:BD2412|'''T''']] 21:07, 2 July 2024 (UTC)

: I agree with the proposal for a title change. There's much more to the subject of gun control than the specific concept of gun violence itself, though I think perhaps changing the title to "Gun Control" may suffice, as Mr Biden's activity around the matter deals less particularly with firearms at large.

== Add Section or Create New Page: List of Notable Persons Calling for Biden to Drop Out ==

I know we're not even 24 hours after the firt Presidential Debate for the 2024 election, but observing the deluge of primary sources, I am arguing we have reached a threshold to either add a section on thi page, on the Endorsments of Joe Biden 2024 Campaign page, or a whole new page that is modeled similar to the Endorsments page of notable individuals that are calling for Joe Biden to drop out. There's no other list compiled like this that I've been able to find on the internet. Anoter reason is that the reaction and calls for a sitting president to drop out from national media figures, democratic operatives, and even said president's own campaign suggorates is historic.

== Media cover up of Biden's mental state ==

Before the recent debate, every mainstream news source had been repeatedly saying for years that Biden's mental health was fine, and that any claims to the contrary were "right wing conspiracy theories," "fake news," of "cheap fakes."

However, after the debate, every one of these mainstream news sources admitted that there was indeed something wrong with Biden's mental condition.

This article needs to address why the media lied and covered up Biden's mental state.

:On another note, this calls into question Wikipedia's reliable sources policies.

:I disagree because we are not seeing a lot of reliable media sources making Trump's age and health a big focus in the same way that they are with Biden. Certainly there has been some talk about Trump's age/health, but we really have to go with what reliable sources tell us is notable, and to act as if the sources are making Trump's age as big of a deal as Biden's age seems to be false balance.

:: Well, have a look and see what sources you come up with. The question is whether it is appropriate to have this kind of article at all, about anyone. If it is, then the question becomes whether there are sources to support it at all. As far as I can recall, there are enough sources to support discussion of all three candidates. Nikki Haley made an issue of both of their ages in her primary campaign, that received some coverage.

:They are calling on Biden to resign due to his serious health concerns. It’s the biggest story in America. [[User:Vinnylospo|Vinnylospo]] ([[User talk:Vinnylospo|talk]]) 12:10, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
: I think there's a case for this; there hasn't been direct and sufficiently substantial address of the matter, and the state of Mr Biden's well-being has tremendous implications for the present and future of America, and there is a need for awareness and address of it. However, I'm concerned that it will never be addressed completely, in the kind of way that would help. It's pretty sick to say that the specifics are a matter of national security. One thing that nags at me, though, is that this isn't like the FDR administration; we don't have the tools and the luxury of being able to research things like this so easily and document it as we go, and look how much we've learned and how much has been brought to light about the life of Franklin Delano Roosevelt in retrospect.

== Semi-protected edit request on 11 July 2024 ==

{{edit semi-protected|answered=yes}}
In the "Arab and Muslim Americans" section, the sentence, "Due to Michigan's status as a swing state, some analysts have said that Biden's support of Israel could cause him to lose the state" is inaccurate: he would not lose the state due to its status as a swing state; he would lose it due to opposition to his stance by voters. What it needs to say is, "Due to Michigan's status as a swing state, some analysts have said that Biden's support of Israel could cause him to lose not only the state, but the election." This is supported by both the refs at the end of the sentence.

== National advisory board ==

Why is the list of names of the "national advisory board" members in the article? I think it's there just because it was a very early announcement of a board which seems to be largely meaningless. [[User:Walsh90210|Walsh90210]] ([[User talk:Walsh90210|talk]]) 18:11, 19 July 2024 (UTC)

== Delete the table of those calling for Biden to drop out ==

Why is there a table of those calling for Biden to drop out? The article should explain that there has been some who have opposed Biden's campaign, not list everyone in the article. There should be a separate article for the list. Which there is. I propose deleting the table from this article.

::Even if it's small and useful, Wikipedia typically keeps detailed lists of intra-party opposition in separate articles to avoid cluttering the main campaign page and the redirect already leads to the comprehensive list article.

Could we get eyes on the navbox [[Template:2024 United States presidential election]]? It is currently describing [[Kamala Harris]] as the "presumptive nominee", but my understanding is that that description is not accurate/precise at the moment, but I am not sure what the right label is. "Declared" was the verbiage used during primaries before a nominee became the presumptive one, but has Harris even officially "declared" at this stage? This is all rather unprecedented.
