Valerie Jarrett is not Iranian-American

This article says she is Iranian American. Because she was born in Iran to American professors who we teaching in Iran? Iran does not grant citizenship to anchor babies or their parents. You have to be born from and Iranian father or mother to be considered a citizen. Please correct this obvious mistake! She is American through and through. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.116.126.158 (talk) 23:22, 4 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Exactly, she is in no way shape or form Iranian. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 240D:1A:8AF:4D00:91CE:60F3:7EB1:75BF (talk) 02:25, 5 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Recent vandalism

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

Hi editors, I noticed someone recently changed Jarrett's middle name to "Caesar". This is not correct. Would an editor be willing to revert on my behalf since I have a conflict of interest (I am here on behalf of the Obama Foundation via SKDK)? I'd really appreciate it.

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

@Encoded: the article has been vandalized in the same way again. Would you mind fixing this like you did for my colleague? I'd appreciate it. SKDKRachel (talk) 20:07, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Done If this continues I'd recommend requesting the page to be protected at WP:RPP. Encoded Talk 💬 22:29, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Encoded: Thanks for doing that! I will look into that if it happens again. Would you happen to have any interest in looking at my other request on this Talk page? I'd really appreciate it. SKDKRachel (talk) 19:34, 13 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Chicago politics

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

Hi editors, I'm Rachel. I work with SKDK PH. I'm here to request some updates to the article, and the first one I thought I'd take a look at is in the Chicago municipal politics section. Right now, there's no source for Jarrett hiring Michelle Obama while working for the City of Chicago. I request that we add a source for that, and change "private law firm" to "Sidley Austin". I found this Sun-Times source noting Sidley Austin, and this Chiacgo Magazine source noting that Jarrett hired Michelle Obama.

I'd also like to request an update to the years Jarrett led the planning department, which spanned 1991-1995, as supported by this Crain's Chicago Business source. Please let me know what you think. SKDKRachel (talk) 16:38, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
