Neutrality
Not sure what the official policy is on this, or if it has been brought up before, but what is the neutrality issues with the primary pictures of world leaders? What I mean is that Saakashvili's photo is him smiling. Meanwhile, Vladimir Putin's picture is a mean-looking face. Is this pro-Saakashvili and anti-Putin? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kylelovesyou (talk • contribs) 11:07, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
Why he is currently being persecuted?
Critisism section has some information, but IMO it doesn't explain why he seems to suddenly have fell out of favor with so many people in Georgia. I know this might be a very POV topic, but can some overview be given? He did establish the civil society, curtailed crime and mafia which was rampant (murders and highways robberies were still common in early 2000s). He is rebuilding many dilapidated parts of many cities. Article doesn't really explain this. Yurivict (talk) 22:37, 28 December 2012 (UTC)
- Translating from the German page: Since May 2013 the Georgian General Prosecutor investigates, use of public funds for a stylist, travel costs for two models, Botox injections, hair removals, physiotherapy, rent for a yacht in Italy, purchase of a work of art by a London artist. Also quashing a demonstration on Rustawelis Gamsiri in Tiblisi in November 2007 with tear gas and rubber ammunition is being investigated.
- Looks like hand in till and 'power'.
Summoned for questioning
Here are some reliable English language sources on the latest episode, where Saakashvili is summoned by Georgian prosecutors for questioning. I came across the story in some partisan sources; finding WP:RS in English took some time. I am however NOT going to edit the article. These are here for other to use as they wish.

Ossetia invasion
Hi, I'm a new member and I just noticed something incorrect on this page. It was saying that Russia invaded South Ossetia, but this is not true, rather they saved South Ossetia. I edited and wow, but now that I have returned it has changed back the incorrect way it was.
Because actually this man, Mikheil Saakashvili, is a NWO murderer. This person is the one who decided to massacre hundreds of people in South Ossetia. If it were not for Russia, thousands would have been swept away in blood by this man. Why do the people love him? Dunno, but I do know he is a hypocrite! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Joshua Cameron Tyler (talk • contribs) 08:45, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
removing POV tag with no active discussion per Template:POV
I've removed an old neutrality tag from this page that appears to have no active discussion per the instructions at Template:POV:
- This template is not meant to be a permanent resident on any article. Remove this template whenever:
- There is consensus on the talkpage or the NPOV Noticeboard that the issue has been resolved
- It is not clear what the neutrality issue is, and no satisfactory explanation has been given
- In the absence of any discussion, or if the discussion has become dormant.
- This template is not meant to be a permanent resident on any article. Remove this template whenever:
Since there's no evidence of ongoing discussion, I'm removing the tag for now. If discussion is continuing and I've failed to see it, however, please feel free to restore the template and continue to address the issues. Thanks to everybody working on this one! -- Khazar2 (talk) 23:47, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
Accent
No mention here but it seems his accent has changed A LOT. From having one clearly with a US accent, he has not got an eastern european accent. I heard him the last 2 years at the UNGA and he speaks as i write this, he sounds different(Lihaas (talk) 21:19, 25 September 2013 (UTC)).
