{{Infobox officeholder

There seems to be a fight over which option to use for the infobox. Instead of edit warring I suggest discussing it here. I personally prefer "&" as it allows the entire entry to be more compact and on one line. - ] (]) 03:34, 21 January 2025 (UTC)

? faq page Frequently asked questions Q1: Why is Grover Cleveland listed as the 22nd AND 24th President? It doesn't make sense for him to be counted twice! A1: It's how the U.S. government has always done it. We can only use verifiable material from reliable sources, and all of the sources list Cleveland as the 22nd and 24th President. It's not up to us to develop new numbering systems.

Restrictive / Non-Restrictive Clause

the only president in American history to serve two nonconsecutive terms in office from 1885 to 1889 and from 1893 to 1897.

A COMMA (or a colon) SHOULD BE INSERTED - AFTER THE WORD "OFFICE." Otherwise, the sentence appears to be claiming that Cleveland was the only president to serve two nonconsecutive terms IN THOSE PERIODS OF TIME.

Grover Cleveland was not the 24th president

It is impossible to be both the 22nd and 24th president. Finnigami (talk) 06:05, 19 November 2024 (UTC)

Is this an attempt to continue the closed discussion at Talk:List of presidents of the United States/Archive 17#Presidential Numbering: Biden is NOT the 46th President of the United States? Bruce leverett (talk) 14:54, 19 November 2024 (UTC)
Except it's totally possible. Cleveland did it by getting elected to non-consecutive terms. 2401:7000:CA83:7400:E0FA:CE53:8C3B:60BA (talk) 12:30, 23 November 2024 (UTC)

Image

I restored this image, which took about half-an-hour, of Cleveland which I have also nominated for a featured picture because I feel it meets that quality. However, since I don't want to edit war and get in a fight with @Drdpw, I want to discuss the images. The image I restored (left) is claimed to have worse coloring and less visual appeal.

I disagree and even if on the surface, the photo is "visually more appealing/superior", it has many issues from aging. Another issue brought up is the color of the images, and I do not like this argument as I think that B&W should not be considered the default standard. This is a carte de visite

Wcamp9 (talk) 01:45, 9 January 2025 (UTC)

It's interesting to compare the two. But I don't like it that I have to look for the delineation between his forehead and the background to the left of it.
Do you know of any other biographical articles whose lead images are cartes de visite? Bruce leverett (talk) 06:00, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
This is cropped, but the image is also more like a cabinet card, which a few 1800s articles have. W.E.B DuBois and W.S. Gilbert are examples Wcamp9 (talk) 20:29, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
At least I can say, looking at those two articles enabled me to see that it's normal and OK to have a non-strictly-black-and-white coloration. I still am not real excited about this one, but we'll see what kind of discussion there is. Bruce leverett (talk) 20:56, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
I wan't to hear your side now, do you support or not. Wcamp9 (talk) 20:58, 9 January 2025 (UTC)
I would stick with the image on the right. Bruce leverett (talk) 01:15, 10 January 2025 (UTC)

One is a side profile, and since we can’t get this one to be the main image, I don’t think we are able to get it to be the main. https://www.si.edu/object/grover-cleveland:npg_NPG.80.24 is already on Misplaced Pages and used to be the image before it was changed for being 7 years after his presidency Wcamp9 (talk) 15:07, 11 January 2025 (UTC)
