# Talk:Milton Friedman

@Rja13ww33
Did you read the reason that I provided for my "citation needed" tag? The quotations from Milton Friedman that are provided on the page do not support the claim that he actually opposed the Iraq war. They only indicate that he thought it damaged US reputation.
Here is my full citation needed tag which you removed and it lists the reason that I provided for why I want a citation.
You must not remove a valid citation needed tag (nor make spurious claims about whether or not he supported the war on the basis of quotations that don't support your claim).

citation needed | Naomi Klein apparently says otherwise and refers to an interview he gave to the German magazine Focus but unfortunately that article can no longer be found and the link is broken

That's not a proper citation. If you have a RS, you need to give it....but that doesn't mean you get to ignore existing RS sources. Where RS sources differ, we include them all (with proper WEIGHT). As far as the statement the source doesn't support the claim....that is wrong. Source #143 (on p.232) says: "He opposed the Gulf war in 1991. He thought that, although the United States should not have militarily intervened in Iraq in 2003, having done so it should see this involvement through to a satisfactory completion."Rja13ww33 (talk) 21:40, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

Since it seems that I am in an edit war, I will turn to the other editors to get consensus on which image should be used.

Image 1 seems like clearly the best choice. Color and the subject is directly facing the camera. We're not going for an artsy look. It's also from his prime years, which I think is appropriate for a deceased person. –CWenger (^ • @) 18:01, 1 February 2025 (UTC)
@HistorianL I'm also gonna ping you as you probably want a voice in this Bramnickatriot (talk) 00:49, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
Image 1 seems like the better one. Assuming there are no copyright issues, I'd go with that.Rja13ww33 (talk) 01:42, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
As stated in the permission for the image
"Bachrach Studios did not renew their copyrights on their 1929-1963 works, and they did not have a copyright notice on his 1929-1977 works, and they did not have a copyright notice or register with the U.S. Copyright Office within 5 years for images made public between 1978 and March 1, 1989. These images have lapsed into the public domain." Bramnickatriot (talk) 03:39, 2 February 2025 (UTC)
