Talk:George Santos

Campaign finance section
By my count, the campaign finance section of the article is a staggering 67 paragraphs long. Clearly, there's a lot of material to cover, but this is still way too much detail.

Last year, there was a proposal to split up the article and create a separate article on allegations of misconduct against Santos. I'd assume that the campaign finance section of the current article would (along with much more) be moved to that new article. The discussion led to no consensus and was closed last October.

Should we revisit the question of splitting up the article?

Even if we do split up this article, the campaign finance section would still be far too long. If we do not split up the article, most of that section should be removed. MonMothma (talk) 16:00, 19 March 2024 (UTC)


 * The issue with "Allegations of misconduct against George Santos" was that that was so vague and overbroad as to constitute a POVFORK that was unacceptable regarding a living person.
 * It's possible that we could spin off a separate article about the campaign finance issues. However ... some are things he's been indicted on, some have become the basis of private complaints to the FEC and the House Ethics Committee, and others have just been reported on without triggering anything else. It's sort of hard to determine how you'd organize things, and we don't have the full story yet on a lot of this.
 * While I admit that since his expulsion things have slowed down a lot on this article and it would be a better time to consider spinning off some sections (I have mentioned before that Early life of George Santos would work; that section is highly unlikely to grow at this point), I think it best, regarding a lot of the misconduct allegations, to wait until a) the criminal case against him is disposed somehow, so we can create, say, a separate United States v. George Santos article and put everything that would cover in it, and b) his current quixotic primary challenge to LaLota ends with a very likely defeat in late June (although of course simply by doing it he will have accomplished his goal of getting payback, making LaLota spend money he otherwise would not have to).

 * Even if we created a spinoff that just related to campaign finance issues, 67 paragraphs would still be way too long. It makes for agonizing reading. MonMothma (talk) 18:06, 20 March 2024 (UTC)
 * really? can we not condense this? Slatersteven (talk) 18:09, 20 March 2024 (UTC)

Is the 'Criminal Information' section of his info box necessary?
Currently there is a section of George Santos's Info box that relates to his 'Criminal Information'; those being his criminal convictions. That being said, is this information actually relevant to be mentioned in this box in addition to its mention further in the article? Comparatively, even Former Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert doesn't have his criminal charges listed in his info box. If it's not even present for the 3rd highest ranking government official to be listed as a convicted criminal in his info box I'm not sure why it's relevant for a half term representative.

Kitara Ravache is back
The article is outdated. The topic "In Brazil" ends with the denial of the existence of a drag queen named Kitara Ravache. Nonetheless, Kitara Ravache is being performed now on Cameo. 201.17.90.205 (talk) 15:55, 2 May 2024 (UTC)

 * I added that to "post-congressional ventures". Perhaps we should add some wording about this to the Brazil part, but since he's not in Brazil at the moment and we generally frown on restating information twice in an article ...
 * Maybe we could make that a separate section now?
 * (or finally get around to splitting off an "early life of ..." article) Daniel Case (talk) 18:34, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
