Nobel Peace Prize Nominations
The cite (translated to English) makes some pretty dubious claims: "Received the support of the citizens through 2.5 million signatures to be delivered to the Norwegian Nobel Committee in support of the application to achieve the Nobel Peace Prize" and "The letter mentioned that 180 countries and 4.5 million disabled athletes supported Lenin Moreno (for the Nobel Peace Prize)." Those are pretty enormous numbers and I can't imagine they're accurate. Is there another source for all of this? - Richfife (talk) 20:54, 3 November 2014 (UTC)

Small edit
The word handicapped in the first paragraph needs to be changed to disabled. Handicapped is the wrong word []

"When he assumed office on 24 May 2017, Moreno became the world’s only currently serving head of state to use a wheelchair"
In 2017, president of Algeria was still Abdelaziz Bouteflika, who has been using one since his stroke several years before 2017. Should we remove this sentence? StjepanHR (talk) 15:44, 18 April 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes I have had a look at some references and you appear to be right. It seems a bit sloppy from the New York Times and I can't think of an excuse for the error. Burrobert (talk) 13:53, 21 December 2019 (UTC)
