Trump mistake
- Trump confunde a España con un país miembro de los BRICS y la amenaza con "aranceles del 100%", RTVE, 21/01/2025
- Fact check: Trump made more than 20 false claims in his Inauguration Day remarks, CNN, Mon January 20, 2025: "Spain and BRICS: Trump falsely claimed in the Oval Office that Spain is a member of the international organization known as BRICS, telling a reporter, “They’re a BRICS nation, Spain. You know what a BRICS nation is? You’ll figure it out.” Spain is not a member of BRICS; the “S” is for South Africa, which joined the group previously known as BRIC — Brazil, Russia, India and China — in 2010."

Likely AI-generated text
Hi - I've added the AI generated template here, specifically regarding the earlier edits by Ritwik Deuba; other edits by this user have shown indications of possible LLM use in the past, as do these. Thus they need review for accuracy, sourcing issues, possible NPOV/editorializing issues, and the like. Gnomingstuff (talk) 16:37, 3 October 2025 (UTC)
- @Ritwik Deuba: Was any of this content generated by a large language model? Jarble (talk) 01:33, 7 November 2025 (UTC)
- No. Not "generated". I do my own research. Spell-checks, grammar fixing, trimming or occasional phrasing assistance must not count. I have repeatedly taken part on talk pages and indulged in feedback loops. I am aware of the contents of the cited material. There is no gap, "hallucination", "original research", or copyvio. Sometimes I just ctrl+c the quotes and maybe it leads to the quotation marks from the original text which is very likely leading to such content being flagged as "AI generated"? I would not know. But no. I read the content first, edit it later. And when it comes to short paras, I do not even need assistance on spell-checks. There is already a discussion going on for codifying rules and norms regarding the same under a separate thread made by the OP himself. I usually just write stuff in a word file or a txt document before placing the edits here. There might have been rare instances of using AI for plagiarism-check, spell check, among other things. But the edit itself is manually handled. I am not "reliant" on LLM. Each edit takes me roughly anywhere between two to ten minutes given that I have read the content beforehand. As far as the content here is concerned, no LLM needed. But, there might be a weightage issue. In any case, I am not doing anything about the template. Any third party is welcome to check the edits if there is a doubt. And once the doubts are cleared, maybe OP himself will remove the template.
- In a nutshell: It is a human output, not LLM output.

Syria should be removed from perspective members
Because the current country of Syria is a different nation with different foreign policy than the Syria included in the sourcing, they should be removed from the perspective member map. ~2025-32573-44 (talk) 00:23, 27 November 2025 (UTC)
