Criticism of national quarantine
Hello there, I would suggest to add information about criticism about the national quarantines imposed in China, Italy and Spain among others. There is strong evidence suggesting these measures are counterproductive, and will have ruinous long term effects, worsening the problem instead of giving a solution. And, of course, an abuse of the situation taken by governments to take measures not related with containment of the problem, e.g. nationalization of industries or an unjustified control of private property of its citizens. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.39.214.62 (talk) 16:43, 22 March 2020 (UTC)


 * If you know of such strong evidence, why not link it here on the talk page, so other people can evaluate it and add it? 78.42.179.229 (talk) 11:08, 23 March 2020 (UTC)

Orphaned references in Criticism of response to the 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Criticism of response to the 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "BBC-economics": From 2020 coronavirus pandemic in Turkey:  From Timeline of the 2020 coronavirus pandemic in Turkey:  

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 10:28, 10 April 2020 (UTC)

Proposed name change
The article name should be changed to Debate on response to the 2019-20 coronavirus pandemic. This would make it more neutral, and provide an opportunity to analyse the response in greater detail. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Iliketoeatbeansalot (talk • contribs) 12:43, 25 April 2020 (UTC)

Move some info on Trump administration communication?
This article currently contains 900 words on "Trump administration: Public communication." Seems like excessive detail here, since this "Criticism" article is global in scope. Today I discovered another article: Trump administration communication during the coronavirus pandemic. May we cut/paste the "Trump communication" material to the more targeted article? Asking for group approval here before making the change. -- Tuckerlieberman (talk) 15:31, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
