Talk:Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union

message: How many members did the committee have, and is there more information on how they were elected? Googling does not help. --Vuo (talk) 08:22, 8 April 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  How large? 

message: The article says that in 1985 Gorbachev had a "margin of just one vote" over Grishin in the Central Committee.  The Victor Grishin article says that Grishin "did not put himself forward as a candidate" and that "Gorbachev was subsequently unanimously elected as the General Secretary".  Was the unanimous vote in a body other than the Central Committee?  Molinari (talk) 16:51, 14 July 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  citation errors  

message: The "Andropov–Chernenko interregnum: 1982–1985" section relies heavily on the 1990 book Getting to the Top in the USSR: Cyclical Patterns in the Leadership Succession Process by Mitchell. This book might have been good for 1990 but nowadays, more than 20 years later, it doesn't look as an adequate source. Surely there are other, more reliable sources, written with access to some archives and memoirs which appeared later? Mitchell's asssertions, with all dues respect, sounds like the semi-idle guesses of a classical Sovetologist (a profession which no longer exists, and with good reason...). 
Can someone suggest a better source?

message: who are Smith 2011 and White 1993? Short citations to these were added by you in 2012, I believe, but they both lack corresponding full bibliographical details. – Finnusertop (talk ⋅ contribs) 21:22, 2 January 2017 (UTC)
