Page should separately address what Agenda 47 entails, and what other people (many of them in the political opposition and so incentivized to engage in false statements and fear mongering) think about it. For example, this paragraph: "The main critiques of the platform have focused on it increasing climate change[3][4], it worsening public health[5], its legality[6], its feasibility, the risk of more inflation, and threat of authoritarianism" belongs in the section about "Reception." — Preceding unsigned comment added by Empact (talk • contribs) 15:28, 17 August 2024 (UTC)
"manifesto"
editIt has not been called a "manifesto" that is loaded language and has a negative connotation. 24.163.10.230 (talk) 01:40, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
- Dictionary definition of manifesto: 1. (government) a public declaration of intentions (as issued by a political party or government). Esowteric + Talk + Breadcrumbs 07:56, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
- Denotation vs connotation. The generally accepted term for a statement of planned intentions by an American political party is "Platform" The language should be changed to "platform" to A) aim for the most neutral language possible, and B) harmonize the description with the body of the 2024 Republican National convention wiki page that describes it as "a separate, but similar, platform called Agenda 47" 72.128.81.110 (talk) 18:49, 22 August 2024 (UTC)
Remove "Manifesto" from description.
editThe use of Manifesto is meant to make Project 47 look like a crazy proposal. It sounds like Democrat Propaganda. Much the same way mass killers have Manifestoes. It simply should be called a plan. 4.53.83.137 (talk) 21:39, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

In the introductory paragraph, there is a thinly veiled opinion that has no source. The sentence "Some have described it as fascist or authoritarian" should be deleted, as it does not contain a source nor do any of the sourced articles support this statement.
In the first section, change "The platform has been criticized for its approach to climate change[3] and public health;[4] its legality and feasibility;[5] and the risk that it will increase inflation. Some have described it as fascist or authoritarian." to "The platform has been criticized for its approach to climate change[3] and public health;[4] its legality and feasibility;[5] and the risk that it will increase inflation."

- Not done: Per MOS:LEAD, that statement does accurately reflect and summarize the content of the article. See also WP:LEADCITE EvergreenFir (talk) 22:12, 25 August 2024 (UTC)
- Out of the thousands of words in this article, the word "authoritarian" and "fascist" are mentioned twice—once in the lead and once in the last sentence in the article (in the Reception section). At no point does the article expand upon this statement. In fact, the mention of it in the Reception section is just the first sentence copied and pasted with the word "columnists" added. How could you call this a summary, as defined in MOS:LEAD, when the article never explores this topic? ZachofMS (talk) 09:36, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
- Not done: Focus on providing reliable sources to support your changes please. You'll be more likely to get your edit request through that way. ⸺(Random)staplers 02:35, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
- And for the record, yes, even if there is no citation in the article, (or in the lead, which as you read, is allowed), you should still provide citations in your edit request.⸺(Random)staplers 02:37, 4 September 2024 (UTC)

The "started" in the following sentence fragment should be changed to "stated": It also started that "unilaterally zero[ing] out any program he doesn't like, or whose recipient has angered him Mofembot (talk) 21:39, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
