Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. Though the current information on date format is also unsourced; not sure if we should remove it entirely. This seems to be a common issue for date formats, as seen in List of date formats by country, presumably because date formats are so commonly used that no one actually bothers to formalise them in text.

Commonwealth Status allows Puerto Rico to keep its culture while maintain a strong, quasi-state relationship with the United States. If the situation arises, Puerto Rico could vote for independence which is something that it could not do if it becomes a state Gabriellexmendez (talk) 15:41, 7 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
3rd paragraph contains a typo, replace "Overseas" with "Oversees", sentence containing typo included below for ease of locating the error " as it is not a state, Puerto Rico does not have a vote in the U.S. Congress, which overseas it under the Puerto Rico Federal Relations Act of 1950. Congress approved a territorial constitution in 1952" 2600:1003:A810:2FF6:FC4F:F904:8ACE:AF9F (talk) 22:50, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
