Talk:Robert Zoellick

message: Is not it amazing that no fewer than 3 sources are used to PROVE that Robert Zoellick is in fact German? And yet his supposed "Jewish ancestry" is still debated here. Why some people are trying so hard to present neoconservatism as a Jewish conspiracy?Keverich1 (talk) 00:55, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: Yeah, uh, the first half of that is potentially valid. Your second is not. It just says what Zoellick believes; whether his beliefs are valid are for the reader to judge, perhaps at the free trade page.
     The initial comments claim that he's an economist, yet the Background section shows no formal
     education in economics, only history, law and public policy? 75.80.37.209 (talk) 05:09, 29 December 2017 (UTC)

message: With his nomination for the World Bank position today the article has gained major importance. The quality is not up to scratch at the moment. I invite editors with particular knowledge on the issue to do a thorough cleanup and other improvements. Javit 23:56, 29 May 2007 (UTC)

message: The comment about how the US is a mercantilist power is an opinion piece with a title that shows a bias.  If there are no objections I am going to remove it. Kd4ttc (talk) 18:58, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

message: In connection with the mediation, do the additional sources I have cited justify a reversion? http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Robert_Zoellick&action=historysubmit&diff=439205483&oldid=439152551Currency1 (talk) 10:40, 29 July 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: If the sources you had added in revision 439152551 are what you meen, then yes. At least two of these are government sources. I think this is enough to justify a reversion. If you do go ahead with a reversion. Please be aware that users have made edits un-related to this mediation since yor edit and it should be ensured that these are not removed. I hope this has settled the debate. If you and Demiurge1000 are happy with this could I ask that you both let me know on my talk page so that I can close the mediation. If you are not happy then also let me know and I'll see what I can do. Oddbodz (talk) 11:34, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Mediation cabal 

message: The last paragraph of the recently added/expanded section "President of the World Bank (2007–present)" consists of a list of Zoellick's achievements during his tenure, sourced only to the website of "the President's Office" at the Bank itself. Really this needs independent sources.
Incidentally, it's surprising that the article is still rated B-class when many sections depend on a single source and some paragraphs are entirely uncited. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 15:01, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Note that I've just removed a large part of this section as it was much too closely paraphrased from the World Bank's own source material as cited. --Demiurge1000 (talk) 15:11, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
