Information on Putin
editThe Man Without A Face: The Unlikely Rise of Vladimir Putin was written by Masha Gessen and is about Vladimir Putin and his rise to power. The book speaks about Putin's private life and his childhood. Which Gessen uses to show the reader how he was shaped into the man he is today. The book continues to talk about controversies and wars Putin was involved in such as First Chechen war along with stories about the former Russian leader Boris Yeltsin. The book was written in (add date) and had multiple reviews on the subject. The CIA even took time to review Masha Gessen's book[1] Though most of the book was well received there were some negative reviews about her writing.
--Background--
(Talk about how book was viewed in Russia and process of writing book)
--Content--
The book begins with Putin's childhood, it speaks about his living conditions with his parents and how he was raised, along with his school life and his attitude towards his peers and authority.
It then tells the reader about his life with his wife and children and how he built his family along with his career as he worked for the KGB in East Germany[2]. The book continues to go through Putin's political life and his relationship to Boris Yeltsin and how he was chosen to lead the country[3].
(Still editing)
It takes a Village (Hillary CLinton)
editBasically you need to give more detail on the book rather than just putting bullet points. Which does not look good. If you want to link a page you may have to create one
Sources should be mainly from book unless you are looking at reviews of pages and stuff about the book. BOok pages do not seem to be well developed or have that much detail to them.
Draft for new article (PUTIN)
editPlot summary of book and why it was written, Link to author and Rootin Tutin Pootin main page. Link to multiple pages EX Kremlin. Need photo of book and information it was written for right side of page.
Add Background section on the book
Add information on Masha Gessen
Talk about content of the book
Release of the book and if it went over well
Talk about reviews and if people liked the book
Talk about different things in book like controversy or facts.

Vladimir Putin notes
editOn going article
Sources: Text book and Masha Gessen book about rise to power (Two main sources). Need to pick certain areas to edit due to on going page and what to edit.
(Will need to add pictures)
Or I could create a page for The book Masha Gessen wrote....
List of Wikipedia articles
edit- Socialist Republic of Romania (Have non fiction book on the topic good for sourcing)
- Catherine the Great (Have textbook on the topic)
- First Crimean War (Have textbook on the topic)
- Katya Zamolodchikova (Famous drag queen off Rupaul's drag race, has show. Can use their social media as a source? Will have to use most online sources for the article. Can use more sources)
- Vladimir Putin (Have textbook and written almost biography of his rise to power of an opposser of his who he chased out of the country... Could be biased source but it is a different perspective... Unsure if I can use his social media as a source... Hes not as active as Trump but there are multiple Kremlin news pages and an official one online)
- Hillary Clinton (Have personal written biography of hers and could use that as a source)
- Could make page for Ginger Minji who was a Runner up on Rupaul's drag race (No page and just redirects you to season 7 page, no photos of her)
Learning the sandbox and Wikipedia editor
edit- Some details could be organized better Early life could have more
- Also do we need like a soundbite of Jimmy Wales voice?
- It seems pretty neutral only because it talks about his controversies
- Also didn't seem to make any outrageous claims
- Has weird link but it just redirects you back to the page.
Did this on Jimmy Wales
