Biden and trump coverage

Would it be worthwhile to compare the tone and contents of this page and the equivelant trump in order to avoid claims of bias. They do read quite differently and the biden does more encyclopedic perhaps. 112.213.131.0 (talk) 03:16, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Biden is a far more encyclopaedic person. That might read a bit strangely, but Biden acts just like most normal, middle-of-the-road candidates in the past. Nothing he does is sensational or extraordinary. Trump is the opposite. Almost everything he says and does is way outside the realm of what is normal for a presidential candidate. This means it's almost impossible to give similar coverage to both of them. HiLo48 (talk) 03:38, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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. JezzaWPU (talk) 17:29, 16 April 2024 (UTC) — JezzaWPU (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic. [reply]

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

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). BD2412 T 21:07, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Indeed, WP:RECENTISM applies. Who is calling for him to drop out? All I've seen are anonymous comments. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:08, 28 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Those sure don't look like "anonymous comments" to me. Beaver's Library Book (talk) 21:31, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This will literally never happen. We don't make lists of people who have aired a single opinion about a politician, lest we have List of Notable Persons Who Think Donald Trump Fomented an Insurrection. Zaathras (talk) 21:33, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

User:Zaathras, you can disagree with the idea, but you can't unilaterally prohibit it. WP:OWN. 152.130.15.15 (talk) 11:34, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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.
