Second longest serving?
Who was the longest serving President of Indonesia? He appears to be the longest.
- that is correct. Following Indonesia's first president Sukarno. Take a look here. --Merbabu 13:59, 10 September 2006 (UTC)
This is from the WP:NPOV page: Let the facts speak for themselves. Karada offered the following advice in the context of the Saddam Hussein article:
- You won't even need to say he was evil. That is why the article on Hitler does not start with "Hitler was a bad man" — we don't need to, his deeds convict him a thousand times over. We just list the facts of the Holocaust dispassionately, and the voices of the dead cry out afresh in a way that makes name-calling both pointless and unnecessary. Please do the same: list Saddam's crimes, and cite your sources.
Remember that readers will probably not take kindly to moralising. If you do not allow the facts to speak for themselves you may alienate readers and turn them against your position.
