thread_title:  [[Zhou Enlai]] 

message: You don't usually see the subject's name shortened, either in English or Vietnamese. Spelling in the text should correspond to the title, aside from the opening, per MOS:FOREIGN and WP:FULLNAME. So he should be referred to as Lê Duẩn and in the opening, and otherwise "Le Duan".

replies: text: In Vietnam, Le is the surname, and Duan is the firstname... --TIAYN (talk) 13:55, 25 July 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: For Vietnamese, the given name is the short form. But two-syllable names are not normally shortened. Kauffner (talk) 22:39, 25 July 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: If Hu Jintao can be shortened, this one can be shortened. --TIAYN (talk) 07:05, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Hu's name is three syllables long, and he is not Vietnamese. Kauffner (talk) 08:15, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

text: Anyway, the point being is, on Wikipedia its normal to refer to a persons surname when referring to him or her in articles.. This is whats been doing her, Le is his surname ,and not Duan... And I must ask you this, were does it say that two-syllable words should not be shortened??? --TIAYN (talk) 08:28, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Look at Ngo Dinh Diem any other Vietnamese bio, aside from Ho Chi Minh. The given name is the short form. Look at the BBC story I linked to above. The subject is "Le Duan" all the way through. Show me a source that calls him "Le". Kauffner (talk) 08:41, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
thread_title: Why "Le"?

message: Edited this per request. Feedback encouraged! Comments:
* The article states that Le was not part of Ho or Truong's factions, but then says he acted as secretary for Ho. This could be clarified.
* The style of including a reference for each sentence seems excessive, especially when each sentence in an entire paragraph is to the same page of the same source. For example, see Le Duan#Economy.
* Didn't the cutback in Soviet aid happen when the USSR broke up? If so, that was after Le Duan's death. How is it relevant to the article?
* The economic section seems muddled. The timeline is confused and dates missing.
* Why include a minor Soviet official's explanation of Vietnamese behavior? "According to the first secretary at the Soviet embassy to China, the Vietnamese saw the Chinese reprisals as an attack on them"
*Overall, many sections cover broader issues of the history rather than focusing on Le Duan's activities. I recommend (re)moving the material.
*This sentence is problematic, but I don't have the info to fix it. "While they accused Vietnam of aggression, the real problem all along was the Vietnamese leadership' plan, or ideal, of establishing a Vietnamese-dominated Indochinese Federation" Who said it was the real problem or even that they had such a plan or ideal?
* The article refers to "religious sects". What sects?
*"On paper, these organisations, to which almost all citizens belong, play an active role in government and have the right to introduce bills before the National Assembly". Which organizations?
*What are the "three interests"?

message: This section seems to completely misstate the impact of the Sino-Soviet split within the Vietnamese Communist Party, suggesting that this had no impact until after 1975, which is completely incorrect. It skips over the Revisionist Anti-Party Affair of 1963/4 and then the Hoang Minh Chinh Affair of mid-1967. Mztourist (talk) 09:25, 24 March 2021 (UTC)
