Kissinger's family departed Germany for London on August 20, 1938, stayed with relatives, and departed England for New York on August 30. Since he was never a Commonwealth citizen or settled resident, the postnominal should not appear in the lead or the infobox. It suffices to have it in the "Awards" section. 67.180.143.89 (talk) 03:14, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
Ambiguity in Public Perception Section
In the first paragraph of the Public Perception section, the quote about Kissinger commenting on someone being a secret swinger does not say to whom the quote refers. 71.45.87.206 (talk) 18:42, 24 May 2022 (UTC)
Tiananmen Square protests or massacre?
@MChinaGA: On 2022-07-15T04:02:35 User:MChinaGA changed "June 4, 1989, Tiananmen Square massacre" to "June 4, 1989, Tiananmen Square massacre". The Wikipedia article is titled, "June 4, 1989, Tiananmen Square massacre. The infobox in this Wikipedia article says the events occurred 15 April 1989 – 4 June 1989: 50 days = just over 7 weeks. During that period, the events were nonviolent. On 5 June 1989 the Chinese military blocked exits from Tiananmen square, and many people were killed. The infobox ends with, "Death(s): No precise figures exist, estimates vary from hundreds to several thousands, both military and civilians". That infobox links to a section on "Death toll". It has been official Chinese government policy to suppress honest evaluation of those events. This section concluded, "whether the fully equipped army of troops massacred peaceful, ordinary folks inside or outside the square make very little difference."
Therefore, I'm reverting the change of "June 4, 1989, Tiananmen Square massacre" to "June 4, 1989, Tiananmen Square protests" back to "massacre", because by June 4 the Chinese government had changed it from protests to massacre. DavidMCEddy (talk) 07:28, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
