In December 2023 the International Monetary Fund warned that the global economy risked losing up to $7 trillion in the event of a new Cold War.^[1][2][3][4]

Not according to sources. Furthermore, one director of IMF said those words, not IMF itself. George Ho (talk) 03:57, 24 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I don't want an edit war. Wikipedia:Ownership of content. We can do more Requests for comment or you can compromise (on adding an infobox to this page, for the 4th time). based on your edit history, I worry about the former. Ikipedia2 (talk) 10:05, 24 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Please don't cast aspersions over content ownership. Zippybonzo | talk | contribs (she/they) 12:56, 24 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I think you should re-revert the undoing. What I did was just remove what's already used in another section from the intro and change how the sources are interpreted. I didn't remove all the sources you added. And Zippy's right; do you think you were casting aspersions on me? George Ho (talk) 14:36, 24 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I apologize that was my mistake @George Ho I didn't see the edit I created was moved below into another section. I removed the photo. As recompense (an apology), if you don't want any photo in the article at all, at the top of this article, you can either put any photo you wish or delete the infobox altogether. I was wrong. I apologize. Ikipedia2 (talk) 18:44, 24 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]

That's okay. I was able to add/restore the "$7 trillion" part per sources. George Ho (talk) 19:02, 24 January 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
