Talk:Sergey Lavrov

message: As per my previous comment I made some changes to the article to make it less biased towards the conventional Western view. Rather than deleting the section of the article I mention below I indicated that Chatham House is a pro-Western think tank and left the rest of the article it as is. I also reworded part of the Ukraine conflict section. Whoever wrote it originally used a Guardian piece that focuses on Lavrov accusing the United States of interfering and aggravating the conflict as a source but worded it so it read like the gist of the piece was Russia being accused of sponsoring the separatist rebels.User2346 (talk) 01:16, 9 March 2017 (UTC)

message: Outside of some form of nationalist agendas, Lavrov's parentage isn't of consequence to this article. Having checked various references, none indicate any form of verifiable knowledge of that aspect of his background.
As this is a WP:BLP, I suggest that all of the content dealing with his parent's ethnicity should be removed unless reliable sources can be found to substantiate assertions as to his having a mixed background. --Iryna Harpy (talk) 02:47, 16 March 2015 (UTC)

IP user, it's not just about what's true; we rely on reliable, secondary sources to guide us on what content is relevant and what is trivial. If this story is important enough to include in an encyclopedia article, surely some secondary sources will have discussed it. You have supplied a secondary source in this TASS article, but it does not appear to cover the story mentioned in your edits.

message: Don't get me wrong the guy does seem like a dick, but it's a bit strange to put that in a Wikipedia article. This section is just a short paragraph about people saying he acts like an asshole. Not very encyclopedic.. I'm sure there are far more innocent politicians who also have reliable sources describing them being called worse but we don't include that stuff for a reason.

message: Lavrov has been foreign minister of Russia for about twenty years. This is not longer than Andrei Gromyko, foreign minister of the USSR for about 28 years (1957-1985). So, he's not the longest serving since Tsarist times, is he? (as it says at the top of the article) Unless we're ignoring the Soviet Union, which would be absurd if we're making historical comparisons... Tuliodawidserafeimcabral (talk) 17:44, 15 May 2024 (UTC)
