use of term "felicitous" sarcastic?
Article refers to the company "Fraud Guarantee" as having a "felicitous" name. This sounds sarcastic, not really in fitting with standard scholarly style.
- It could be better explained, but he named the company "Fraud Guarantee" to goose Google search results, so someone searching "Parnas fraud" would find the company and not the fraud he has committed.[1] – Muboshgu (talk) 18:01, 23 November 2019 (UTC)
Rudy Giuliani associate Lev Parnas received $1 million from a Russian account in September, add just here?

Split
I think we should split this article. I know much of the background information overlaps but things are changing fast. Parnas was released on bail and his willingness to testify makes him unique. The two are acting independently now and treating them as one is no longer tenable. --- C&C (Coffeeandcrumbs) 06:40, 19 December 2019 (UTC)
- Support - This is just standard practice with biographies, especially those of living persons... not even sure we need to discuss this before it's implemented either as long-standing consensus would hold this shouldn't be controversial. — Coffee // have a ☕️ // beans // 11:34, 20 December 2019 (UTC)
- Support. They are two separate individuals with different histories. Being involved in an event together shouldn't mean merged BLPs. --Kbabej (talk) 20:44, 23 December 2019 (UTC)
- Support. For the reasons already cited. Bond Head (talk) 13:53, 26 December 2019 (UTC) Why is there one article on two subjects? Shouldn't each person have their own article? Bond Head (talk) 13:51, 26 December 2019
- Support. One page for two people seemed like a bad idea when I first saw the page. (:-( Wish we'd jumped in sooner; seems logical to efficiently share mutual content between pages. Concern: how goofy/clumsy/unwieldy/inefficient/crazy-making split might become trying to use various transclusion techniques - implications of template this and template that… (I have near-zero experience; discovered transclusion term minutes ago, only browsed page.) OTOH, maybe WP transclusion used in gajillion other places I may not have noticed and it's a non-issue. In summary, would be great if transclusion experts would step in to make split transition - and future editing of shared/mutual content - go smoothly, have good user experience.

- Support. The very recent news surrounding Lev Parnas in particular have escalated him to the role of a central character in the impeachment proceedings. Forresthopkinsa (talk) 23:36, 14 January 2020 (UTC)
- Support as per Forresthopkinsa immediately above. Mozzie (talk) 12:57, 15 January 2020 (UTC)
- As far as we know their role in the story is still as a unit, regardless of how they're choosing to address their legal issues. Manys (talk) 00:35, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
