Saudi Arabia Boycott
[edit]A section on the criticism this conference received from Saudi Arabia should be added. Controversy is relative IMO. May do it myself — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.139.64.226 (talk) 01:25, 29 April 2016 (UTC)
United States delegation
[edit]More should be included about the U.S. delegation. The United States State Department sent a delegation to the the conference led by:
- Honorary Chair Hillary Rodham Clinton, First Lady of the United States, former attorney, executive, and activist
- Chair Madeleine Korbel Albright, United States Ambassador to the United Nations
- Vice Chair Geraldine Ferraro, United States Ambassador to the United Nations Commission on Human Rights, former U.S. Congresswoman and Vice President nominee
Clinton's speech was considered one of the century's top 100 U.S. speeches and she often cites it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Moderate2008 (talk • contribs) 00:08, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

Renaming page
[edit]I would like to propose that this page be renamed to World Conference on Women, 1995 with this page name retained as a redirect. It seems more likely that people will search for the date or location rather than the number of the conference. To that end, I have created the previous conferences in that format.

- Support I agree with SusunW. It seems like the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc naming convention is used by the UN. However, most of the times I run into these conferences in history, people are referring to them by the date. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 19:33, 11 May 2017 (UTC)
- Support. Makes sense. The Drover's Wife (talk) 23:48, 13 May 2017 (UTC)
- Strong support - follows a standardized naming convention. --Rosiestep (talk) 21:12, 14 May 2017 (UTC)
- Support. As an admin is needed, perhaps Rosiestep can just go ahead and do it.--Ipigott (talk) 11:45, 15 May 2017 (UTC)
- Comment: As a professional courtesy, notifying the article creator, Bucketsofg, regarding this proposal. --Rosiestep (talk) 13:23, 15 May 2017 (UTC)
- It has been a week and there has been no further discussion. Do you think we could make the move Rosiestep? SusunW (talk) 16:04, 22 May 2017 (UTC)
Annex IV quote
[edit]Is the quote a joke? can't it simply be summarized such as "the president of the conference failed to make call on any special meaning of the term gender when the issue was raised on the 19th meeting of the Commission"
Why have all that inane roundabout overly politically safe misdirection verbiage instead? It's over three paragraphs with a note and a note call-out. Could be a single paragraph instead of the note anchor. Gcbwiki (talk) 10:34, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
