Talk:Tuilaʻepa Saʻilele Malielegaoi

message: Not sure what to do with this. It was entirely unsourced. I've added sources for the road switch controversy (and fixed a mistake there), but for the rest, I'm wary about leaving unsourced controversial statements in the biographical article of a living politician. Unless they can be properly sourced, they should probably be removed. Also, why is the picture of him with Rice placed in the "Criticism" section? Aridd (talk) 09:40, 4 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I've looked through the page's edit history, and found who added the "criticism" material. I've left a note on their talk page. It was a one-time editor, though, so we may not get a reply. If no sources are provided, I'll probably remove the controversial material in a few days, unless anyone disagrees.

replies: text: I'm on self-enforced wikibreak so I can't log in, but I've removed the material in question. As well as the image, which seemed incongruous in that section. Aridd, August 19, 2009.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.157.6.45 (talk) 14:59, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Criticism section 

message: I tried to change the wording in the infobox which is wrong. i.e. It has 'President' (wrong) instead of 'Head of State' (correct)...but that bit has disappeared - can someone please alter the word without making that section disappear in the template. Thank you. Teine Savaii (talk) 05:27, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

message: I am reading a copy of his memoirs ("Pālemia: Prime Minister Tuila'epa Sa'ilele Malielegaoi of Samoa: A Memoir"), where Malielegaoi writes "So I picked up the old book [from his Church, recording all births] and flicked the pages back to 1945 and my name was absent. [...] I went back to 1944 and my name was there, the 14th of February 1944. So that is my real birth date". There is confusion on his birth date as his father altered the birth date to allow him to attend a primary school, which propagated forward to being on his birth certificate etc. The actual date of his birth is over a year earlier than what sources, including the Government of Samoa and Wikipedia state. I'm uncomfortable editing this myself, as I'm unsure how to note this in the infobox -- I assume a footnote explaining it? MrSeabody (talk) 05:59, 25 September 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: No response after about two weeks, so per WP:BEBOLD I've gone ahead and made the changes with an explanatory footnote. MrSeabody (talk) 10:40, 8 October 2022 (UTC)
