World's top two school
[edit]What is the source for saying that any of these two schools are in the top two? And according to which criteria? This article does not reflect well on MGIMO. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.132.242.1 (talk) 14:30, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
Old talk
[edit]As a graduate of this university, I should've written this article a long time ago :). Nice job! KNewman 20:36, July 26, 2005 (UTC)

Incorrect link
[edit]I fixed the link for the university professor which redirected to the Russian version of Wikipedia. (Eddie 00:29, 9 July 2006 (UTC))
Resereved for tops government figures and oligarchs?
[edit]There is a statement in the lead:
- it is usually considered common knowledge in post-USSR countries that, at least during the USSR times, admission to MGIMO was mostly reserved to children of the Party and government nomenklatura). Even today, admission to MGIMO is reserved for the children of top government official and oligarchs
It should be referred and probably restated in a weaker form. E.g. my x-wife's brother has graduated from MGIMO although he is certainly not a child of an oligarch nor of a government figure nor even an exceptionally good secondary school student. Alex Bakharev (talk) 10:26, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
Number of languages taught
[edit]The article originally read:
- MGIMO is the only university in the world listed in the Guinness Book of Records – it is named the only educational establishment teaching 53 foreign languages full-time.
This is, of course, incorrect. MGIMO is NOT the only university in the world listed in the Guinness Book of Records. I revised this to
- According to the Guinness Book of Records, MGIMO teaches 53 full time languages during every academic term, the most in any academic institution.
This edit, however, was reverted, for reasons not specified. I am open to other ways of phrasing the fact that, according to GBR, MGIMO teaches more languages 'full-time' (whatever that means) than any other 'academic institution' (whatever that means) in the world. Please do not simply revert this correction; discuss here if you see any problem with it. Rgr09 (talk) 13:45, 14 July 2019 (UTC)
Problem with history section
[edit]The History section of the article is a very close paraphrase of this webpage. It needs revision to avoid issues of WP:CV and WP:NPOV. Rgr09 (talk) 15:52, 14 July 2019 (UTC)
Dangerous wasps nest? No?
[edit]Did no one have the balls to call it out? No "Criticism" section? No "Factory of dictators, oligarchs and supremacists" section? Just a German prankster whose jokes will disappear like all the anti-war & anti-Putin demonstrators do: without delay & discussion? Shame on Wikipedia. Arminden (talk) 18:31, 28 February 2022 (UTC)
