thread_title:  External links modified 

message: The content of the section was a comment that was given yesterday, and even though it was not very wise, its not good to fill up biographies of politicians with such content. If however this goes on for days or weeks, then we should possibly include it in the article. Ulflarsen (talk) 12:45, 25 October 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I hardly think the article was in danger of being "filled up". No objection to it being removed, but not sure why it can't be mentioned, in an existing section, in a single line. I'm pretty sure it's not "controversy" as such, but it does show an incredible lack of understanding/ judgment on his part. Martinevans123 (talk) 12:48, 25 October 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I added something before checking the edit history and seeing it had been removed. Removing it entirely is massively inappropriate given the coverage this incident has received from numerous reputable sources around the world. GiantSnowman 12:58, 25 October 2018 (UTC)

text:  To Martinevans123 & Giant: I not only agree that the comment from Kamall "show an incredible lack of understanding/ judgment", with his education he should be in a position to know better. But there is no end to politicians giving statements that are not appropriate or correct. If we are to record all of them, then we risk filling up biographies with irrelevant content. How much interest will this silly statement have for a reader in a year or two? If the answer is no, then I think it should be removed. Ulflarsen (talk) 13:48, 25 October 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Quite happy you wait a year or two. Thanks. But yes, politicians do say some ridiculous things, many of which appear to be lies. Martinevans123 (talk) 13:53, 25 October 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Removed "controversy section" 

message: Please! Many, many things are wrong there.
For example: The sentence "Kamall was finally forced to apologize." is false. Kamall was not forced to apologize. See the video!
