@DTSheikh wants to keep the long lead
editSo @DTSheikh you haven't explained why you wanted your changes to be kept. For my reason, the lead is already too long and as per MOS:LEADLENGTH, it explains that even for the longest of articles, it should be kept at 4 paragraphs at max. I didnt even completely remove what you wrote but merged it to keep it short. Not everything is needed in the lead. Insert it in the body if you really really want it. What is your defense?
It will be good if anyone else can join and tell which version is better. If there are no good reason, then I will revert. And remember, editors cannot repeatedly revert, see WP:EDITWAR, or any one person can put up the offender's name to the admin, whereby the offending editor will be blocked from Wikipedia.

Small mistake in the first paragraph
editHe was a dictator yes but he wasn't in the military the entire time; he resigned from the military before the end of his term. 180.150.113.17 (talk) 15:11, 8 August 2025 (UTC)

Infobox image

Can anyone change current infobox image to this one because it is more recent than current one which is from 2004! 122.129.67.104 (talk) 13:38, 29 August 2025 (UTC)
