National anthem file

I proposed the United States Navy Band instrumental recording (File:Star Spangled Banner instrumental.ogg) for the version of "The Star Spangled Banner" to infobox, rather than vocal recording by United States Army Field Band. Because it's more reliable. 49.150.13.247 (talk) 10:36, 29 July 2024 (UTC)

Pueblo settlement image

Hi there, I want to suggest that we maybe exchange the Cliff Palace image with an image of a still populated Native American settlement, e.g. like the Sky City of Acoma Pueblo. The Cliff Palace image is in principle nice, but I find it more comprehensive to show an image that shows an ancient settlement AND one of contemporary Native Americans at the same time in one image. I now have edited the image caption of the Cliff Palace trying to point towards this. What do you think? Nsae Comp (talk) 19:52, 30 July 2024 (UTC)

Please change [[Policies of states in the United States|is given to states and several territories]] to [[Federalism in the United States|is given to states and several territories]] in the lede. The article currently linked doesn't seem as related and is a stub. McYeee (talk) 18:40, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

Please change cite-note [d] in the infobox to be superscript. McYeee (talk) 18:46, 7 August 2024 (UTC)

 Done – By placing efn on infobox line meant for area footnotes. Didn't see any other way (and efn wasn't displaying properly where it was). Dhtwiki (talk) 07:19, 8 August 2024 (UTC)

Forgetting about something

You forgot to put and U.S.A! — Preceding unsigned comment added by NinjaMiura (talkcontribs) 22:55, 11 August 2024 (UTC)

With regard to what, the initials given in the lead? See MOS:USA, which deprecates the use of periods in that and similar abbreviations. Dhtwiki (talk) 05:12, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Update

It's been bugging me for awhile. On the (Top) section, it says the US economy accounted for 15% of the global economy in 2023. But then, on Economy section, it says the economy constituted for over 25% of global economy and 15% of purchasing power parity in 2023. Can we fix on the (Top) section so that it says the US economy accounted for over 25% of global economy and 15% of purchasing power parity in 2023?


Also, on the Sports subsection under Culture and society section, since the Paris Olympics ended almost week ago, shouldn't it be updated to say U.S. athletes won 3,094 medals (1,219 of them golds) since in Paris, Team USA won 126 medals, 40 of them golds? Hopefully, someone with authority for the article can fix this. Sorry for the inconvenience. Ryumikhail (talk) 19:24, 16 August 2024 (UTC)
