Only semi-autonomous?

I've been noticing lately a linguistic change in process – nobody wants to say autonomous anymore, it's always qualified as semi-autonomous. Now, to me autonomy means exactly the state of being self-governing but not independent – Southern Sudan post-Naivasha could be a textbook case. Semi-autonomous, to my mind, must mean a particularly limited autonomy, and that's not the impression I get from reading the Naivasha Accord. QuartierLatin 1968 15:54, 8 August 2005 (UTC)Reply

Autonomy seems to back you up on this. I'm not sure what "semi-autonomous" means either, now that I think about it, but it seems to be the commonly used weasel word even for news articles. - BanyanTree 16:25, 8 August 2005 (UTC)Reply
i definitely agree with both of you as well. --la gaie 17:45, 8 August 2005 (UTC)Reply

He isn't president of Southern Sudan. The country isn't independent yet! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.197.15.138 (talk) 05:39, 8 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Birthdate

Can we get more definite detail on his birthdate, please? -Fsotrain09 20:43, 2 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

SPLA Child Soldier practice

My question to the editor: Why paragraph about the involvement of the SPLA on the Child Soldier practice is immediately deleted? I have added information with correct references and still it was deleted with stating any reason for deletion

Political views

I have removed this section since it was about one-third the word count of the article and dealt entirely with his views on homosexuality. Does anyone honestly believe one-third of the political discourse in South Sudan revolves around homosexuality? It is against NPOV to include such a selective rendering of his political views. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.175.3.203 (talk) 09:41, 19 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

I agree. Designate (talk) 17:06, 19 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
I have no opinion on this, but I would clarify that it doesn't have to represent a third of political discourse in South Sudan, since this article isn't Politics of South Sudan. This article is about Salva Kiir Mayardit, and should be proportioned relative to that person. If criticism of homosexuality has been a notable element of his career, regardless of whether or not South Sudan cares in the slightest, it should be included in his biography.

So you removed all of it? How homophobic. Too much of Hitler's article is dedicated to his views on Jews, so you may want to remove all of that as well. 108.71.14.120 (talk) 03:29, 22 July 2011 (UTC)Reply
