# Talk:Robert Todd Lincoln

Near the "Later life & career" section, text was being sandwiched by changes in the size of the Presidential Possibilities Card image and the Lincoln Memorial image. Per  MOS:SANDWICH those image sizes have been reduced. Also reduced the size of another image to reduce sandwiching.
It appears that the information in the caption to the photograph now captioned "Portrait by Mathew Brady c. 1870s" under the Secretary of War section is not completely verifiable according to information at the photograph's file at the Library of Congress - https://www.loc.gov/item/2017893381/ . Yes, it can certainly be inferred that the photographer was possibly Mathew Brady, but the LoC's own citations under "Cite this item" do not identify the photographer. Instead their cite only states "None" as the known creator of the image. Per WP:Verifiability that caption has been adjusted.
The same issue exists for the caption to the infobox image - https://www.loc.gov/item/2017893517/. That photograph's Cite this item at the Library only identifies the photographer as "None". They are both part of the Brady-Handy collection but many images associated with Mathew Brady were probably not taken by Brady himself but by one of his many assistants (due to his declining eyesight, particularly past Civil War dates). Also, the LoC file states ca 1870-1880, which could mean 1869 or 1881, etc.
If there's disagreement about my changes, let's discuss. Thanks, Shearonink (talk) 05:38, 13 October 2025 (UTC)

In order to help make this article more properly encyclopedic, shouldn't we add a mention of the fact that Lincoln was not particularly progressive (as was James Garfield), but was instead more politically conservative? ~2025-32865-45 (talk) 20:07, 22 November 2025 (UTC)

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source. Sundayclose (talk) 21:25, 22 November 2025 (UTC)
