Talk:Milan Bandić

message: This article reads at times like a pamphlet made by Croatian people's party.
: Well, fix it then. This is a free encyclopedia which anyone can edit.
I will only concentrate on one rather nonsensical assertion:
Since Zagreb generates almost 80% of Croatia's GDP, and the city budget exceeds 6.8 billion kuna...
Should I be surprised that this assertion has not been backed by any reference?
The city of Zagreb generated 32 percent of Croatian GDP in 2003. Privrednik vjesnik has published this article  in 2006. It gives the accurate figures even if the interpretation is sometimes flawed as Ms Brcic has a tendency to mix GDP in absolute terms with GDP per capita. 83.131.20.140 07:36, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Good, now that you pointed this out, the article is fixed. If you have any more observations, please post them. --Dijxtra 09:54, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

text: Because of the media. AFAIK, first he reported Bandić's misdeed, then a few days later newspapers wrote about it and the police officer lost his job as a consequence. It's unknown and improbable that the officer himself created the media story; the sources tell us nothing about that. Admiral Norton (talk) 20:26, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  I ment making an appearance in a media story in fact. Anyway, he was basically fired because he was doing his job? Was there another affair following? An extra sentence or two would help a lot. (I assume you want to get the article to FA some day, that's why I am pointing the tricky points up now already) --Tone 20:58, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Article + some of the information contained in it

message: For some reason the second half of my review did not show up on this talk page.  I appears to be corrected, I apologize for the mix up.  I will monitor this page over the weekend and into next week for corrections and then make my determination.  H1nkles (talk) 15:09, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Second Half of GA Review

message: LOL, the image is absolutely terrible... I know the guy is generally unpopular and I'm not his fan either, but the image makes him look like a werewolf or something. If anyone has a better one please upload it. --DIREKTOR (TALK) 12:43, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Image 

message: Two remarks:
*Bandić wasn't merely accused of drunk driving; he was drunk (0.16%, over three times the legal limit) and had to be removed from his car by force, after a police chase. Prior to being stopped by the police, he caused a minor accident.
*A very nasty January 2006 incident with a journalist is also given a fairly cursory coverage - on a par with a comparably trivial illegal parking event in 2008.
Perhaps I'll do a bit of rearranging myself, but please do beat me to the punch. GregorB (talk) 10:28, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Controversy section 

message: There has been talk about expelling him from the SDP for running for president again Josipovic, which has created great controversy. Should this be added in the first paragraph? --Jesuislafete (talk) 21:41, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Expulsion from SDP? 

message: This interview  has me thinking about their separation/divorce in the 1990s, and their living situation. I don't know if this should be added in personal life.--Jesuislafete (talk) 02:12, 8 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Has you thinking in what way? --Joy [shallot] (talk) 18:08, 8 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, when his wife said in the interview that he's a "perfect man", my first thought was: if he is perfect, why did you divorce him? The information is relevant, as the issue of fake divorce was brought up by Josipović, but one must not draw conclusions from the interview (well, at least not in the article). GregorB (talk) 16:07, 9 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text:  Oh, yes, that's a bit strange. The apartment issue is already described in this article, but not to the full extent. It probably is a relatively minor issue, it surfaced in the campaign only as a retort for charges of hipocrisy. Then again it may be indicative of the low standard to which a politician is held. --Joy [shallot] (talk) 20:01, 9 January 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified (January 2018) 

message: Bandić got to 2nd round of presidential elections, that's notable. He founded a minor political party, that's also lead-worthy. However the one thing he will be remembered for is his mayoralty. For instance, save for half a paragraph about his presidential run in Goldstein (2013), literally all coverage of Bandić in academia relates only to his mayoralty. If you were to ask someone 50 years from now who Bandić was and what he did, I highly doubt they would begin by e.g. saying "he is the man who ran for president against Josipović", just as they wouldn't start off that he was a defence and protection teacher who was, by the way, notable for X, Y... The lead also already details his political CV, so there's hardly a need to duplicate it. Daß Wölf 17:23, 2 May 2021 (UTC)
