[edit] NPOV issue

As a local interested in Politics of Ukraine, I find the following passages either groundlessly promoting Lytvyn or reflecting only one side of the respective subjects:

Lytvyn is a well-known specialist in politology and modern history of Ukraine. He is a correspondent member of National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Honored worker of sciences and technology of Ukraine.

Few years ago Lytvyn was publicly and reasonably accused of abusing copyrighted work of Western scholar in his Zerkalo Nedeli article.

Despite his political career, Lytvyn is not ambitious

Ungrounded promo statement.

many suggested his win in the case if he would.

The same.

This is an essence of non-cliche idea of democracy: true democracy must consider everyone's opinion, not just an opinion of the majority.

A mixture of a promotional text and an original research banned in Wikipedia.

And the most important: Lytvyn is immediately involved in both murder case of Georgiy Gongadze and the subsequent Cassette Scandal. As you may find out from the page history, respective mentions have been deleted - probably because nobody moved his ass to ground them.

I suggest the authors of the above-layed passages to ground them. Otherwise, I'll remove them if nobody objects. Gongadze case is also essential. Ukrained 19:46, 14 December 2005 (UTC)


Rewrote as suggested above. Going to cite sources ASAP. Ukrained 20:37, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] HuH?

In the external links section, "accusations of copyvio by Lytvyn". Huh? He accused us of violating copyright? Or someone else? In either case I don't think we should be using the internal WikipediA phrase "copyvio". I have spelled this out, but someone might want to clarify it further. 68.39.174.238 17:52, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Done. Thanks, anon. Ukrained 18:09, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
