• 06:0906:09, 8 January 2022 diff hist +17 Lavender Scare →History: Changed "and was accused of being" (a closeted homosexual) to "and, ironically, is believed to have been" for two reasons. First, "was accused" may confuse the reader by creating the impression that McCarthy hired Cohn despite contemporaneous claims that Cohn was homosexual. Second, the edit eliminates the implication that homosexuality is an offense; though it was indeed regarded as an offense at the time, that's not a position for us to take editorially today.

• 04:5504:55, 2 May 2021 diff hist +1 Death of Vincent van Gogh Rearranged sentence to clarify that what's presumed is that he shot himself, not that this occurred two days earlier (which is certain).
• 03:1003:10, 2 May 2021 diff hist +20 Vincent van Gogh →Death: Given that the auction house acknowledged it could not guarantee that the Lefaucheux it sold was the weapon used, and that experts say it will never be certain, to maintain neutrality on the question we should clarify that "it is believed" that this was the weapon used.
• 03:0803:08, 2 May 2021 diff hist +20 Vincent van Gogh Given that the auction house acknowledged it could not guarantee that the Lefaucheux it sold was the weapon used, and that experts say it will never be certain, to maintain neutrality on the question we should clarify that "it is believed" that this was the weapon used.
• 02:5602:56, 2 May 2021 diff hist +20 Death of Vincent van Gogh I understand that the prevailing theory is that Van Gogh shot himself, and that a minority theory, presented in this article, holds that he did not. Assuming that Wikipedia editors can't be expected to take a position on whether the majority theory is irrefutable or the minority theory is plausible, I think our most neutral course is to present the majority theory here (he shot himself) with the caveat "presumed."
• 02:4302:43, 2 May 2021 diff hist −7 Death of Vincent van Gogh Cleared up a bit of potentially confusing chronology. Rather than follow a sentence about his July 29 death with the statement that "he shot himself and died two days later," perhaps leaving some readers to briefly wonder how he could die on July 31 if he had already died on July 29, let's say that his July 29 death resulted from his having been shot "two days earlier."

• 20:4220:42, 25 April 2021 diff hist +31 Henry Haight Provided a more useful identification of the eastern end of Haight Street.
• 20:2720:27, 25 April 2021 diff hist +24 Henry Haight Added the location of the western end of Haight Street, because the article identifies the easter end.

• 06:0206:02, 7 July 2019 diff hist +408 Age of consent in North America In the "History of the Canadian age of consent" section I expanded and added citations to the description of the status of anal intercourse, and I updated that description to reflect the change in that status resulting from the June 2019 passage of Bill C-75.
• 05:3005:30, 7 July 2019 diff hist −2,175 Age of consent in North America Removed brief (three-sentence) section titled "Anal intercourse in Canada," which was relevant to this article prior to the June 2019 repeal of a Canadian law that criminalized anal intercourse for persons under the age of 18, but which was irrelevant and potentially confusing subsequent to that. This deletion also eliminates a redundancy; the law in question is mentioned in this article in the section titled "History of the Canadian age of consent."
