Talk:2014 G20 Brisbane summit

Criticism section
The Criticism section is too contentious. Since it has been un-sourced for months I am removing it. A lot of the details have not been made public or confirmed by authorities. Until that happens its too speculative to keep here. - Shiftchange (talk) 01:21, 1 June 2014 (UTC)


 * The re-instated Criticism section contains no criticisms at all. Not one valid concern is expressed by anyone.  It is simply a list of security measures.  Besides that Criticism sections are discouraged.  A url is not considered to be an adequate reference either. - Shiftchange (talk) 08:02, 25 October 2014 (UTC)

I'm not sure how you are affiliated with seeing this event going forward but I believe you should quantify your position in editing this article in removing things which could be construed as critical of the G20. This meeting is contentious. It is right that on a public forum such as wikipedia people know how their rights and liberties will be effected. Criticism sections ARE NOT prohibited or discouraged, and can be legitimately included in articles. I confirm I am not politically affiliated. Can you say the same, Shiftchange? Who do you work for?

"Note that criticism and controversy sections are not prohibited by policy, and the tag should only be used if there is a real concern that the criticism section and its contents are causing trouble with the article's neutrality."Theprivateer83 (talk) 08:55, 25 October 2014 (UTC)

Jean-Claude Juncker
Will Jean-Claude Juncker or José Manuel Barroso be representing the European Commission? Claude Junker took office as President of the Commission on November 1st. Cantab12 (talk) 15:41, 11 November 2014 (UTC)

G20 - hyphen or not?
The official page https://www.g20.org/ doesn't use the hyphen - they consistently refer to the "G20". I suggest that we should do the same. Mitch Ames (talk) 01:54, 16 November 2014 (UTC)

I've moved the page and corrected the G-20 to G20 within the article. There are, however, a number of other pages incorrectly using G-20 that still need to be changed across Wikipedia. Tojasonharris (talk) 03:57, 30 December 2014 (UTC)

On 5 February 2015, Maurice Flesier moved the page back to "G20" with the explanation "Harmony for other summit titles." Unless a stronger defense can be made for an error than "harmony," this change should not have occurred. I am, therefore, reversing it and ask that future efforts be put toward correcting this error elsewhere rather than reversing corrections. Tojasonharris (talk) 03:33, 6 February 2015 (UTC)

Capitalisation of summit?
Should "summit" be capitalised in the title of this article? Tojasonharris (talk) 04:00, 30 December 2014 (UTC)

Outcomes
I've added some brief content on the outcomes of the summit, but at this stage it's just a summary of the leaders' communique. If anyone has time, they could usefully link this to secondary sources and expand the commentary a bit. GoldenRing (talk) 13:25, 18 November 2014 (UTC)

Education
Did this summit had any talks about education? --190.133.108.238 (talk) 21:15, 26 November 2014 (UTC)
 * No, it's not a topic on the G20 agenda (directly). Nick-D (talk) 21:47, 26 November 2014 (UTC)

Joko Widodo
Wasn't the Indonesian President a guest invited by Abbott and therefore shouldn't he be listed in the sub-section below the current position? - Shiftchange (talk) 05:57, 16 December 2014 (UTC)
 * No - Indonesia is a G20 member country. Nick-D (talk) 07:18, 16 December 2014 (UTC)

Russian controversy
The Russian controversy was not due to "pro-Russian actions in Ukraine". It was Russia's invasion of Ukraine. This is not place for pro-Russian euphemisms. The controversy was because of [what is perceived to be] a Russian invasion.Royalcourtier (talk) 00:32, 31 December 2015 (UTC)
