Estado Novo (Portugal)
Very few historians of either Portuguese History or the history of Fascism regard the Estado Novo as a fascist regime--excepting only those who favor an especially broad definition of 'fascism'.

1964 Brazilian presidential election
appreciate the rest of Number57's revisions to the infobox, but I cannot see how the Home State line could possibly be a violation of WP:MOSINFO. If I'm incorrect would appreciate a link to any relevant meta-articles.

1964 Brazilian presidential election
lol forgot to actually remove the brief mention which was the point of the edit. Actually removed now. Justification for this decision is written in preceding edit explanation. Seriously though the coup was like 95-99% Brazilian, it would be a little bit like calling the Iraq War a "Polish-backed American Invasion" and not mentioning any of the other coalition members that sent far more troops.

1964 Brazilian presidential election
The decision to mention US involvement in the lead here reflects a highly Amerocentric perspective on Brazil's history. Few historians would dispute that the 1964 coup was indeed backed by the United States, but it was planned, organized and led entirely by elements within Brazil itself, and America's direct involvement was limited to the point that its actual efficacy is disputed. An article about Brazilian history briefly mentioning a Brazilian coup ought to treat it as a BRAZILIAN coup

Clarifying that Quadros had the biggest win in the history of Brazilian Democracy, not Brazilian History in general. The sham elections held during the Military Dictatorship had far larger margins, exceeding 90 pointscurrent

Kfar Aza massacre
Cleaning up article, which had some odd artifacts (including a duplicated sentence in two different parts of the casualties section) and awkward wording stemming from it being written piecemeal as new information came out over time, as well as one paragraph concerning violence across all Hamas attacks (mainly outside Kfar Aza) which were mistakenly lumped together here. Also added lines concerning the two protests arranged by Kfar Aza survivors in Tel Aviv.

Gaza humanitarian crisis (2023–present)

David A (
talk) The issue isn't the source, but whether the sentence provides useful information. Nukes' explosive yield vary by orders of magnitude and are not used in a manner similar to artillery or airstrikes. The paragraph already gives a good overview of the scale of the calamity in Gaza; the 'nuke' sentence thus only contributes ambiguity and misleading mental imagery.Tag: Undo

Gaza humanitarian crisis (2023–present)
Removed loaded sentence saying bombs dropped on Gaza 'equivalent to two nuclear bombs'; this sentence's meaning is vague (how is this calculated? how big are the nuclear bombs themselves?), and 'nuclear' inherently conjure image of an attack specifically aimed to maximize civilian deaths. The other sentences in this paragraph do more than enough to emphasize the level of destruction caused by Israeli bombardment in the first weeks of war in a clearer and more objective manner.Tag: Reverted

Democratic backsliding in the United States
Democratic backsliding has been ongoing only since the late-2010s. A 2006 book claiming Democracy has declined since ~1980 both contradicts the rest of the wiki article, and more importantly all major indices by which democracy is measured (ex. Freedom House, V-Dem)
