Resignation & Criticism
[edit]Its ridiculous that there are no quotes from the Rolling Stones article. Article reads like military propaganda. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.222.148.189 (talk) 11:50, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
I'm reflecting where and how to mention it in the article. Does someone have ideas / proposals ? --Neun-x (talk) 09:14, 31 December 2018 (UTC)
Was this article written by the general himself? A PR team?
[edit]what a disgrace and embarrassment this article is. It begins with a cherry picked hyperbole statement about him being the greatest warrior and leader, His controversies are skirted and distorted, and it reads like a public relations person submitted this or the general himself is editing this page. It fails on all levels of being objective, factual, and any semblance to encyclopedic integrity. Articles like these give Wiki its dubious reputation as not a source for information but nothing but edit wars, partisan bias, lies, and misinformation. Someone needs to rewrite the entire article. I would even consider deleting the article pending on a rewrite that is based on facts on objectivity rather than exaggeration, distortion, and bias. Shhsbavavaa (talk) 07:22, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
