| Should Michael (2026 film) include director Antoine Fuqua's skeptical opinion on the Michael Jackson sexual abuse allegations, wherein he stated, "sometimes people do some nasty things for some money" (), and if so, should the article also include Leaving Neverland director Dan Reed's response to Fuqua ()? silviaASH (inquire within) 23:54, 28 April 2026 (UTC) |

| Content on Palestine was recently removed from this article as three editors considered it a fringe theory. Following extensive discussion, no consensus on revised wording could be reached. This RfC asks editors to vote on three options: 1) No content on Palestine (Option 1); 2) Revised wording for inclusion (Option 2) 3) Shorter revised wording for inclusion (Option 3).

Talk:United States embargo against Cuba

In the § RfC about the label for countries struck by Iran discussion closed by Iseult, Iseult mentioned that there was negligible discussion about the collapsability of the others section. Two options:

| Should the Republic Movement article include descriptions or categories related to neo-Nazism? Specifically, should the lead section or infobox mention allegations of neo-Nazi ties, and is there a consensus that reliable sources support such a description? Dasomm (talk) 10:32, 18 April 2026 (UTC) |
| Building on the discussion above, I believe wider input would be useful on whether the current section is due, neutrally framed, and supported by sufficiently strong sourcing.
Does the current "Controversies" section give undue weight to recent activist/political material and rely on sourcing that is not strong enough for such a serious framing of the company? ~2026-23011-10 (talk) 08:46, 15 April 2026 (UTC) |
Talk:January 6 United States Capitol attack
| I start this RfC because I would like the following question answered for addition to the "Current consensus on naming and terminology" section (the 8th box in the talk page banner): Should the January 6 United States Capitol attack be characterized a coup d'état or self-coup? --Minoa (talk) 14:36, 14 April 2026 (UTC) |

Talk:American expansionism under Donald Trump
| At Talk:2026 Iran war#"Part of" American expansionism there is an extensive WP:RFCBEFORE discussion about whether material related to the war is appropriate for this page. I have been advocating to formalize the discussion and to hold it on the page that hosts the information rather than a page that hosts a navigation link. As such I apologize for what may appear to be an abrupt RfC posting. With that preamble out of the way, the RfC question before us is this:
Do reliable sources describe the 2026 Iran war as an element of American expansionism under Donald Trump? Simonm223 (talk) 18:37, 9 April 2026 (UTC) |
