Incorrect information about Budapest Memorandum

In last sentence of 2.2 is information about signature under Budapest Memorandum. This memorandum (see content of [11]) was signed by presidents Kuchma, Yeltsin, Clinton and PM Major. There is no reason for signing of Lavrov (Yeltsin's deputy in UN). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ike231 (talk • contribs) 08:32, 3 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@L'Origine du monde: @Ike231:
What is reference 11?
Wasn't Lavrov the plenipotentiary at the UN? Isn't that a far stretch from "deputy"?
Was the signing ceremony at Budapest? Are there photographs of Kuchma, Yeltsin, Clinton and Major?
For these reasons the disputed content needs to stay in. Armduino (talk) 09:32, 17 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Yeltsin signed the memorandum for Russia. You can see this in the full text available at the Budapest Memorandum page. I see no need to include false information in the article. ♥ L'Origine du monde ♥ ♥ Talk ♥ 10:00, 17 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The entry was changed to say that he forwarded the memorandum to the UN citing primary sources. It would need secondary sources to show notability. ♥ L'Origine du monde ♥ ♥ Talk ♥ 10:08, 17 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@L'Origine du monde: Yes, I changed the verb from "signed" to "transmitted" because that is what he did. The previous text was a factual inaccuracy which needed to be rectified. His actions are all there in black and white. Now you change your tune to "secondary sources" and revert before anyone can search for the secondary sources which you claim are necessary. On what basis is your claim made? Armduino (talk) 10:46, 17 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Armduino there was a false claim in the article that he signed the memorandum which I tried to remove. You reverted my edit with rather incoherent claims. Now you apparently agree that he didn't sign the memorandum. Why do you think that it is important that he "transmitted" this particular memorandum? Presumably in 10 years work he transmitted thousands of documents. To be included in the article his act would need to have been recognised as important by reliable sources. Please remove the text that you added to the article UNTILL you have such sources. ♥ L'Origine du monde ♥ ♥ Talk ♥ 10:58, 17 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@L'Origine du monde: I'm sorry you gave no evidence for the claim that he didn't sign the document. I researched the affair and found that he transmitted the document. The text was changed to read "transmitted". Others thought it worthwhile to mention before I arrived. I know little about the structure of the UN and am therefore not in a position to comment on the number of documents transmitted by Lavrov. The number of disarmament treaties is very limited and for this reason alone the subject is notable. The fact that the event occurred in 1994, more than 25 years ago before the internet even existed, makes your request problematic. How is the UN not a reliable source? Armduino (talk) 10:43, 18 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
What is this place?
I have a project where I add information about a russian person.
I got lavrov, your website helped me alot.
This guy was also in the United Nation? 24.237.159.217 (talk) 04:57, 13 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I told you to check the full text on the Budapest Memorandum page. It clearly says he didn't sign it. There is a difference between primary and secondary sources. Whoever added the information in the first place added wrong information. I should have thought it self evident that transmitting a document is not important. Please provide some reliable secondary sources that mention Lavrov transmitting the document if you want that information to remain in the article. ♥ L'Origine du monde ♥ ♥ Talk ♥ 11:43, 18 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Armduino I have checked the reference you gave. I was shocked to find it was a link to a letter signed by representatives of the US, UK, Ukraine and Lavrov for Russia that did not say that Lavrov had transmitted the memorandum. Please don't make things up and add them to Wikipedia with fake references. ♥ L'Origine du monde ♥ ♥ Talk ♥ 13:51, 18 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@L'Origins du monde: I'm sorry you misunderstand me. I did check the full text on the Budapest Memorandum page. In fact, that's where I copied the "transmitted" verb from. I'm glad you agree that "Whoever added the information in the first place added wrong information." which is the reason for my "transmitted" change. Now that we have an agreed document we should be able to agree on a text. I don't think you can sustain any of the final sentence in your comment and would ask that you apologize for it. A little sang-froid from you would be welcome. Armduino (talk) 15:02, 18 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Armduino I can't understand if you are being deliberately obtuse, or if you really don't understand. You are not supposed to copy wrong information from one wikipedia page to annother. Please explain, with sources that agree with you, why your claim that Lavrov transmitted a document to the UN is important enough for this article. There were 4 people who took responsibility for that action.♥ L'Origine du monde ♥ ♥ Talk ♥ 17:08, 18 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@L'Origine du monde: please don't use insult as it only serves to make you the fool. You seem to suffer from an incomprehension of what constitutes a secondary source. Your point has now had more than a fortnight to attract supporters. It has attracted nobody. This forum works on consensus. If your point receives no support that means failure. You would be wise not to revert. Armduino (talk) 23:26, 8 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please provide secondary sources. Nobody has expressed any support for you either. Please stop exaggerating the importance of a simple bureaucratic action that is not mentioned in secondary sources. ♥ L'Origine du monde ♥ ♥ Talk ♥ 10:02, 9 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Edited to improve NPOV

As per my previous comment I made some changes to the article to make it less biased towards the conventional Western view. Rather than deleting the section of the article I mention below I indicated that Chatham House is a pro-Western think tank and left the rest of the article it as is. I also reworded part of the Ukraine conflict section. Whoever wrote it originally used a Guardian piece that focuses on Lavrov accusing the United States of interfering and aggravating the conflict as a source but worded it so it read like the gist of the piece was Russia being accused of sponsoring the separatist rebels.User2346 (talk) 01:16, 9 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Source on "Russian-Armenian"?

He is introduced as "Russian Armenian" and his name is transliterated to Armenian in the intro. Yet, the article states that he was born in Moscow to Armenian and Georgian parents, and that's it - no other indication of Armenianness (or Georgianness, for that matter) is given. The article never indicates he worked with the Armenian government. It gives no reason to treat his father's ancestry as more important than his mother's.

Why does the article give so much important to his Armenian side, other than his religion? --Golbez (talk) 13:04, 4 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

BLP violations

Outside of some form of nationalist agendas, Lavrov's parentage isn't of consequence to this article. Having checked various references, none indicate any form of verifiable knowledge of that aspect of his background.

As this is a WP:BLP, I suggest that all of the content dealing with his parent's ethnicity should be removed unless reliable sources can be found to substantiate assertions as to his having a mixed background. --Iryna Harpy (talk) 02:47, 16 March 2015 (UTC) regular retouching Wikipedia - Pages (these limits with a vandalism) in favor of the political Image Her Sergey Lavrov CoRatte (talk) 10:48, 22 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Alex Bakharev and I have now reverted edits by 2601:140:1:C8E3:F463:196:D537:1C9A a few times on WP:RS grounds and opposition to the use of YouTube as a source. IP user, it's not just about what's true; we rely on reliable, secondary sources to guide us on what content is relevant and what is trivial.
