Neutrality[edit]

Per WP:BLP, this article refers more to "controversies", "supposedlys" "allegedlys" and other rubbish. It makes the article unbalanced read WP:NPOV. He did much more than those "controversies". --Amnesico29 (talk) 10:11, 10 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that you are the one that's not being neutral, when you say that "he did much more than those 'controversies'". The fact is that his participation in any of those actions is supposed and alleged, and the correct way to maintain the objectivity is to refer to them as 'controversies', 'supposedlys' and 'allegedlys'. deutschervolke (talk) 14:20, 24 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]


Generally speaking, I would tend to agree with that and with most of the modifications you've recently made. I believe the two sections dealing with both his time as Defense Minister and his current Presidency need additional subsections or divisions though. That should make it easier to include more information and bring some semblance of neutrality to the article.
As it currently stands, it's definitely missing a lot. Nevertheless, it is important to keep the controversial events since they were some of the most high profile developments during his recent career, even if they are insufficient for the purposes of balance and comprehensiveness.

ECLAC and CAF positions[edit]

In the section Career someone wrote JMS was "President of the United Nations Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC)" and "Director of the Corporación Andina de Fomento (CAF)". The point is that there is no such positions in these structures, as you can check in their respective web pages ECLAC has an executive secretary (http://www.cepal.org/cgi-bin/getprod.asp?xml=/noticias/paginas/3/21363/P21363.xml&xsl=/tpl/p18f-st.xsl&base=/tpl-i/top-bottom.xsl) and CAF an executive president (http://www.caf.com/view/index.asp?pageMS=61400&ms=19). So I suppose this is just spam. I don't know if JMS was at ECLAC or CAF, but if, then in other positions, not the chiefs one. Since the actual description MUST be false (the positions mentioned don't exist) I suggest not just flagging the line but deleting it. Well I'm new editing Wikipedia so I don't know how it works, I just wanted to let you know. Mahuzu (talk) 14:45, 22 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

He looks like Scotty from Star trek[edit]

should be notififeid. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.56.195.221 (talk) 01:05, 29 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see it. Do you have any reliable sources to back that up? ChristopherGregory (talk) 03:09, 29 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

He looks nothing at all like Scotty, he however looks identical to William Shatner, — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.132.226.65 (talk) 00:15, 10 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I can see both Scotty from Star Trek, as well as William Shatner. -CaptainGummyBearz —Preceding undated comment added 03:00, 12 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Harvard?[edit]

On the sidebar, he is listed as having gone to Harvard University, and is listed at the bottom as an alumnus, but nowhere in the actual article does it mention his attending that school. I gather that this is because of his attendance at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, but that page says that the school is now entirely part of Tufts. Are graduates of this school at the time he attended usually considered to have attended Harvard and Tufts both? In that case, the article should explain that. If not, the reference to Harvard should be removed, I think. Dolohov (talk) 19:17, 30 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Juan Manuel Santos was my Nieman Fellowship classmate at Harvard, Class of 1988. See [1] wwsj 12.91.193.138 (talk) 03:15, 24 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Well, according to this article http://www.hks.harvard.edu/news-events/news/articles/alumnus-colombia-jun10 He did go there and they mention him being an alumni and being elected as president.

Orphaned references in Juan Manuel Santos[edit]

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 Juan Manuel Santos'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.

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⚡ 21:19, 18 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

His Excellency[edit]

Should the title of Excellency be removed as he is no longer president or does it stay because of the honourific titles he holds? Krisgabwoosh (talk) 16:10, 17 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
