According to the protection log it was increased from semi protection in December 2023 due to "death hoax edits" which is reflected by the article history and many of the talk page edit requests that were made since the protection was increased. - Aoidh (talk) 04:12, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 11 May 2024
change "Carter speaks on the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. Recorded January 4, 1980" to "Carter speaks on the Iran Hostage Crisis. Recoded January 4, 1980" 182.255.32.12 (talk) 10:02, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Not done: He only speaks about the Iran Hostage Crisis at the start. The bulk of the speech, starting from about 1:16, is about the Soviet Invasion of Afghanistan. The title of the speech itself in the archives is also "January 4, 1980: Speech on Afghanistan". Liu1126 (talk) 11:27, 11 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Please remove the claim that "his name recognition was two percent" as the reference does not back that and I cannot find an alternate source that says 2 percent (there are some that say 1 percent[1] and some that say 5 to 6[2]).
If one wants to keep the gist that his name recognition was very low change the sentence to something like " His name recognition was quite low, with his opponents derisively asking "Jimmy Who?" "
Also, the archive link seems to be down for the citation? I'm seeing: "Sorry. This URL has been excluded from the Wayback Machine." when I click it. GrapesRock (talk) 18:38, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".
The edit may be made by any extended confirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{EEp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.
Place "Carter is the most recent Democrat president to have served in the military" as the last sentence in Naval Career section. Sean 2015 (talk) 13:22, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Without offering an opinion as to whether or not this is warranted in the article, the adjective form is "Democratic", not "Democrat," and should be used if this suggestion is implemented. PianoDan (talk) 22:01, 24 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Under post presidency, 4th paragraph in the diplomacy section, there's a bit that reads "...while saying he was supported the country" if someone could fix that would be great. Scramblescram (talk) 18:47, 3 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
