Apparently, DYK is looking to piss off entire countries now, and I'm absolutely on board. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 23:37, 11 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Buidhe: i have some issues with the article, this shouldn't be too difficult though. First, I'd rather all direct quotes be cited at the end of the sentence. Also, if Azerbaijan is involved in vote-rigging and keeping political prisoners, the article should make that clear, because it doesn't seem to do that to me at the moment. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 01:39, 15 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

theleekycauldron Thanks for your comment. I have done that with direct quotes, and added more sources to back up the issues with political prisoners and vote-rigging, bearing in mind that I don't want this article to overlap or duplicate Human rights in Azerbaijan. I don't think there's any doubt in reliable sources that both these are a thing. I mean, in many countries some people claim the elections are rigged. In Azerbaijan, they announce the election result before polls open. (t · c) buidhe 02:51, 15 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Rather brazen of them, i see. thanks for working with me on this one, we're good to go! theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/them) 18:08, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
