Lead section
[edit]The lead was recently rewritten. What belongs in the lead? --Malerooster (talk) 16:12, 22 March 2021 (UTC)
- The lead should obviously cover his promotion of conspiracy theories. Snooganssnoogans (talk) 16:33, 9 April 2021 (UTC)
- I could say "The lead should obviously not cover his promotion of conspiracy theories." but I will leave that to others to say. --Malerooster (talk) 16:37, 9 April 2021 (UTC)
The lead should not have 'activist', unless anyone has sources and/or can write a section about Eric Trump's activism? --nathalievra (talk) 02:59, 26 August 2022 (CEST)

Trump is a trustee and executive vice president of his father's business, the Trump Organization, running it alongside his brother Donald Jr.[5] He also served as a boardroom judge on his father's TV show The Apprentice. *******During their father's presidency, the brothers continued to do deals and investments in foreign countries, as well as collect payments in their U.S. properties from foreign governments, despite having pledged not to do so.*******
Why is that needed there? It has no context and just thrown in Exoticsloth (talk) 06:32, 2 July 2021 (UTC)
Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{edit semi-protected}}template. Melmann 07:45, 2 July 2021 (UTC)

The Wiki page states that Eric Trump is married to Ivana Trump, who was his mother. Eric Trump is married to Lara Trump and this should be corrected immediately. 2601:183:C701:1270:1182:D36A:EA32:E43A (talk) 05:53, 18 October 2022 (UTC)
Done 3mi1y (talk) 08:16, 18 October 2022 (UTC)
Undone: This request has been undone. We both didn't read closely enough: that's saying Eric is the son of Donald and his [Donald's] first wife, Ivana. 3mi1y (talk) 08:21, 18 October 2022 (UTC)

Birthday is 01/06/84 not 06/01/84. Personal source.
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 if appropriate. Not sure what "personal source" means but nowhere in our article do I see 06/01/84 Cannolis (talk) 01:07, 7 December 2022 (UTC)
- you can literally google his birthday and confirm 2600:6C4E:1A3F:3EF9:F133:1E2:AC19:10AF (talk) 01:19, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
Too far leaning
[edit]someone should fix this entire article. It's slanted entirely too far left to where it actually takes away from the substance and doesn't make me feel like I'm getting true facts. Perhaps someone could rewrite the article about Eric Trump (or add to it) information that doesn't scream "a liberal wrote this". I'm not saying it needs to be right leaning either. Unbiased journaling would be preferred. Thanks 184.166.151.217 (talk) 16:56, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
- What is the first issue you have identified? Emir of Wikipedia (talk) 20:40, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
- as another request asked, the lead talking about their business dealings is unnecessary, jarring, and immediately calls into question the “spin” in the rest of the article. 66.214.4.245 (talk) 03:50, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Please remove the category Category:Children of presidents of the United States, as the subcategory Category:Children of Donald Trump is already listed. 66.99.15.163 (talk) 21:19, 4 November 2024 (UTC)
Why does he look like that?
[edit]Why is his image really bad? He doesn't look like that normally and this image is at the top of google because it's on wikipedia ~2026-16676-74 (talk) 01:05, 17 March 2026 (UTC)

reinsert this photo again https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Eric_Trump&oldid=1342471600 as the current one, recently inserted, is terrible ~2026-17503-28 (talk) 08:37, 26 March 2026 (UTC)
Partly done: I've reverted to the 2025 consensus photo. A discussion needs to be had before further changes. Newbzy (talk) 09:59, 26 March 2026 (UTC)

Remove the Russia portion, as it is taken out of context and not applicable — Preceding unsigned comment added by KimBenza12 (talk • contribs) 01:10, 22 May 2026 (UTC)
Not done This major change would require consensus on the talk page. thunkii (talk) 02:50, 24 May 2026 (UTC)
- this change would require no such thing. Proceed as requested. ~2026-37322-99 (talk) 19:45, 28 June 2026 (UTC)

Add that his book, Under Siege was a New York Times #1 Bestseller — Preceding unsigned comment added by KimBenza12 (talk • contribs) 01:10, 22 May 2026 (UTC)
Not done There are many ways to place a self-published book on the NYT Bestseller list, and many political figures have done so. This is not particularly notable, and adding that would constitute promotional tone and undue weight. thunkii (talk) 02:50, 24 May 2026 (UTC)
- you have made this standard up out of whole cloth. Proceed to make the change as requested. ~2026-37322-99 (talk) 19:46, 28 June 2026 (UTC)
