07:3607:36, 28 October 2023 diff hist +52‎ Benjamin Franklin ‎ Made the language a little more accurate. "dealt in slaves" seems like an overreach for running ads. Tag: Visual edit

20:1320:13, 9 August 2022 diff hist +899‎ George Clymer ‎ This claim was previously removed. It is not extraneous. Fact-checkers, per their data, relied on Google searching (which pulled from Wikipedia) to fact-check how many of the founding fathers were slave holders. Wikipedia was factually incorrect, and misinformed both Google and the fact-checkers, and therefore the general public. Omitting this updated claim is misinforming, since Google indexed this data and propagates the claim in search and on pages. Tags: Reverted Visual edit

01:3701:37, 25 March 2022 diff hist +47‎ San Bruno pipeline explosion ‎ Reviewed two sources cited here in this article and they report conflicting numbers for the initial count of homes destroyed in the fire. One source reports 35, the other 37. See sources: https://www.mercurynews.com/2010/09/10/search-for-bodies-in-deadly-san-bruno-pge-gas-line-explosion-ends-2/ - and - https://www.mercurynews.com/2010/12/17/number-of-homes-destroyed-in-san-bruno-explosion-now-at-38/ Tag: Visual edit
01:3201:32, 25 March 2022 diff hist +10‎ San Bruno pipeline explosion ‎ The number was incorrectly listed, per a source that was used as a reference. Tag: Visual edit

09:0509:05, 28 November 2021 diff hist −18‎ Benjamin Franklin ‎ The name-dropping of the historian may read as promotion of his book. There are dozens of historical biographies on Franklin, and his page should not be used for personal promotion. Tag: Visual edit
08:5908:59, 28 November 2021 diff hist +429‎ George Clymer ‎ Assuming the "Pennsylvania Society for the Abolition of Slavery" meant the "Pennsylvania Society for Promoting the Abolition of Slavery," then this is inaccurate. Benjamin Franklin was the first president of this association. Tag: Visual edit
04:4204:42, 28 November 2021 diff hist +62‎ George Clymer ‎ Evidence suggests that Clymer did hold slaves, per evidence cited. It originally stated that he was one of the 34 signers who did hold slaves. Tag: Visual edit

15:3715:37, 21 October 2021 diff hist −14‎ Wikipedia:List of policies ‎ Originally included common parlance reference to "WikiWars," but I think editorially it is too aggressive and is an unnecessary term. The policy comes across clearly regardless.
15:3115:31, 21 October 2021 diff hist +15‎ Wikipedia:List of policies ‎ Included common parlance reference to "edit wars," which is WikiWars

04:5004:50, 25 May 2021 diff hist +2,404‎ USC Center for the Political Future ‎ Added additional details about the center from its website, including additional information about the activities of the center in the opening paragraphs. Tag: Visual edit

22:2622:26, 1 March 2021 diff hist −11‎ Hillside Elementary School ‎ I think it's inappropriate to mention this will be a private residence. That's doxing. Tags: Reverted Visual edit

02:5402:54, 12 February 2021 diff hist −54‎ Benjamin Franklin ‎ The use of the phrase "cautious abolitionist" is a political framing that, without evidence, would bias the article. Evidence shows Franklin was active as an abolitionist - even collaborating with individuals internationally to spread the abolitionist movement. Tag: Visual edit

02:2102:21, 8 May 2020 diff hist +20‎ m Judy Mikovits ‎ She claims she is not against vaccinations. Video source: https://archive.org/details/plandemic-documentary-the-hidden-agenda-behind-covid-19_20200507 Tag: Visual edit
02:1902:19, 8 May 2020 diff hist −244‎ Judy Mikovits ‎ The fact-checking sites provided are inadequate fact-checking sites. This is a grossly overgeneralized claim that is not sufficiently addressed by the fact-checking sites mentioned. Tag: Visual edit
00:4800:48, 8 May 2020 diff hist +543‎ Judy Mikovits ‎ The language here make definite claims about this person's points of view on vaccines, which are directly contradicted by the persons own language. Unless here is evidence from the person featured here that she is "anti-vaccine" it is not factually to present her as being anything but "regarded that way by some." Tag: Visual edit

06:3206:32, 7 May 2020 diff hist −4‎ m Judy Mikovits ‎ Given that using "Dr." doesn't seem to be standard on PhD and MD wiki pages, I've removed "Dr." in front of Judy's name Tag: Visual edit
06:2206:22, 7 May 2020 diff hist +631‎ Judy Mikovits ‎ Recently published video footage contains direct quotes from Judy Mikovits explicitly stating her own position on vaccines which is contrary to how she has been labelled. Both claims are here for reference. Tag: Visual edit: Switched

16:1316:13, 15 December 2019 diff hist +469‎ m Operation Northwoods ‎ I did not see the original, de-classified document (archived with the Internet Archive) being used to support the claims in this article, so I cited where appropriate. Some of the language, such as "hijacking planes" and "terrorism against Americans" was not descriptive enough of the plan, and I believe without more details people reading this article would immediately assume the similarities between Operation Northwoods and other False Flag (or suggested False Flag) ops. I added clarification. Tag: Visual edit

21:5221:52, 25 February 2019 diff hist 0‎ m The dress ‎ The page had it listed incorrectly as "White and blue" although the cited pages claim it was "black and blue" Tag: Visual edit
