Why delete the Biden/Harris pictures?[edit]

Biden is the Democratic nominee for president. He has the delegates. He and Trump are featured prominently in the main 2024 article. Hell, even this article states later in the infobox that he and Harris are the presumptive nominees. If you believe that anyone other than Joe Biden will be the nominated in Chicago, barring some unforeseeable turn of events, you're crazy. KoopaDaQuick (talk) 08:27, 17 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Because they haven't been nominated for president & vice president by the party yet. True, barring the unexpected, the majority of the delegates at the convention will nominate Biden for president & Harris for vice president. It won't hurt to wait until they actually do so. Notice we don't have Trump's image in the 2024 Republican National Convention's infobox. GoodDay (talk) 03:06, 19 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

While it is technically true that neither major party has officially nominated anyone in their respective 2024 conventions, I don't see why it would hurt to feature Biden, Harris, and Trump in the convention infoboxes, as they're already featured in the infoboxes of essentially every other article related to this election. Heck, in the very same infobox on this article, Biden and Harris are already listed as the presumptive nominees. If anything were to happen to Biden, Harris, or Trump between now and the conventions, I don't see why we can't just edit it later after it happens.

Since both Biden/Harris & Trump/TBD are already in the infobox of the 2024 United States presidential election page. Then I guess it's alright to add them to the infoboxes of their respective national convention pages. GoodDay (talk) 02:29, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Photo used for Biden[edit]

Not loving how squinty his eyes look in the photo being used at the moment. SecretName101 (talk) 15:57, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks to 172.58.164.157[edit]

@172.58.164.157 Thanks for this. You are right, that fact that had been added by whomever was incorrect. Not only was FDR a five-time nominee on a major party ticket (as you pointed out in your edit summary), but so was Nixon (twice for vice president, thrice for president).
