Change "During the American Civil Rights movement" to "During the civil rights movement". Mitchumch (talk) 08:11, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done however I've removed the ancient protection. @Mitchumch: these are usually left as displayed unless there is a good reason to change them. — xaosflux Talk 15:44, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Xaosflux The non-capitalization of "movement" is very unusual within the term "American Civil Rights movement". "American civil rights movement" is a very common presentation of this term. Mitchumch (talk) 18:59, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Mitchumch: what I mean is that the historical copy of how something appeared over 15 years ago isn't normally edited for something like that. — xaosflux Talk 19:01, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Xaosflux Are "Today's featured articles" republished for future use? Mitchumch (talk) 19:26, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Mitchumch: I don't think so, I think these are just for historical reference; I'm not saying you can't edit it (why I removed the protection) - just that the audience that would read that are likely reading it to see what it looked like in the past. Feel free to do whatever you feel is best, if someone more practiced in this area speaks up give them a listen. — xaosflux Talk 23:05, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
