Presidential term limit edit
I have removed a statement to the effect that the removal of a presidential term limit facilitated a possible presidency for life. The former notion is an interesting fact; the latter is an unecessary pejorative. It would be odd to read that the German or UK, say, constitutions facilitate a possible Chancellorship or Prime Ministership for life; references to constitutions elsewhere are no different.

Edit warring edit
Edit warring starting with [1] then continuing (in a different direction about the same disputed text) with [2]. Apparently, the anonymous editor, regardless of what the source says, wants the "no religion" figure to read 0.2% and doesn't appear to want the "fails verification" template in place. I'm not sure at which point either sequence of changes became an edit war, but I think it's there now. I'm going to bed and will catch up when next.

looted art and efforts at restitution edit
Howard from NYC (talk) 17:54, 5 November 2023 (UTC)
I'm asking not telling... what about a section focused on issues and lawsuits and publicity of "looted art"?
one of many recent examples:
another related query... should there be a similiar section in every wiki page of all 200+ nations?
granted in some cases, it is less about nation "A" being looted as having done the looting of nation "B"
