Excessive external links

We now have five links in the external links section. As per WP:EXT, this is excessive. See WP:ELMINOFFICIAL: Normally, only one official link is included. If the subject of the article has more than one official website, then more than one link may be appropriate, under a very few limited circumstances.[8] However, Wikipedia does not provide a comprehensive web directory to every official website. Wikipedia does not attempt to document or provide links to every part of the subject's web presence or provide readers with a handy list of all social networking sites. Complete directories lead to clutter and to placing undue emphasis on what the subject says. Can we choose which one or two to include and delete the others?

A Google search yields this article as the first result at the twitter page as the second, so I guess it is the most popular official link. “WarKosign ” 20:58, 13 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Before anyone revert my edit, he actually has many cartoons about this topic.

That's WP:OR or borders vandalism --Denniss (talk) 09:41, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Now I’ve linked an academic article about this. It is not original research anymore. :-) Azuizo (talk) 18:52, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

this ref is worth nothing as your claim is not supported + its in a foreign language without translation. --Denniss (talk) 19:33, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Non english sources are allowed, but it is in bounds to ask for a translation of the relevant portion. Wikipedia:Verifiability#Non-English_sources.

I find it incredibly racist to say that Portuguese is a “foreign” language. Azuizo (talk) 20:57, 31 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

you do know this is the English wiki right? ResultingConstant (talk) 21:35, 31 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Stance on Russia-Ukraine war

The article clearly lacks any mentions of pro-russian sentiment shared by the subject. Since 2014 he made several caricatures depicting Ukrainians in a dehumanizing way, like this:

https://twitter.com/LatuffCartoons/status/1504505076290891778 https://ms-my.facebook.com/internationalriot/photos/ukraine-antimaidan-euromaidanfrom-latuff-brasil/671544492901910/

I, as a Ukrainian, find it offensive

He oftentimes dubbs the Russian narrative about "all Ukrainians are nazis", examples:

From what the subject posts in social media, his Iran-China-Russia bias is obvious, and it should be pointed out in the article. Choomaque (talk) 21:44, 10 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I agree completely and it's a shame that it's not mentioned in the article. Do you know of any reliable sources so we can put it in? 84.148.208.43 (talk) 21:17, 17 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
