Put antisemitic as one of the characteristics of the alt right movement in the top of the page. 2601:80:C500:4850:4022:1557:21FD:E69D (talk) 00:09, 23 August 2023 (UTC)

Do you have a reference to a high quality reliable source that verifies what you want to add? The article, after all, says Some alt-rightists are antisemitic, promoting a conspiracy theory that there is a Jewish plot to bring about white genocide, although other alt-rightists view most Jews as members of the white race. Cullen328 (talk) 00:14, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
 Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. Lightoil (talk) 04:00, 23 August 2023 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 13 January 2024

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Please remove the phrase "has been declining since 2017". This is false, with people like Andrew Tate and the Identitarian movement becoming more prevalent. This claim has no source. 2601:644:907E:A450:A445:4F13:9EAF:150 (talk) 00:10, 13 January 2024 (UTC)

 Not done for now: I'm closing this request for now because this phrase is part of a much larger issue of this article that needs a lot more work and information to tackle. The reason that the claim has no source is because it's a lead section summary of the section Alt-right#2017–present: Decline, but that section is now outdated, and is tagged as so. Nevertheless, you still need to provide a reliable source that states the movement is not in decline (or alternatively, reopen this request once editors have finished updating the section). Liu1126 (talk) 00:58, 13 January 2024 (UTC)
Well, it is particularly hard to find sources that are reliable due to how the political climate around such things are well what's the word... charged so couldn't the question really be is what sources could be appropriate to update the article to date while keeping up with Misplaced Pages standards? 65.190.84.189 (talk) 00:54, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
