Please refrain from using talk pages such as Talk:George Soros for general discussion of the topic or other unrelated topics. They are for discussion related to improving the article in specific ways, based on reliable sources and the project policies and guidelines; they are not for use as a forum or chat room. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. See here for more information. Thank you.

At no time did I use that page for unrelated discussion. I pointed out that the article was biased, Soros' convictions for insider trading having not been mentioned at the time. Currenly they are n=mentioned, but in a rather unusual way. With every other person that is convicted of a felony, this is stated in the first paragraph. Insider trading is a felony,and Soros' is a felon. I still feel that should be mentioned in the first paragraph as it would be with anyone else. How was any of this unrelated? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Martine4508 (talk • contribs) 07:26, 25 July 2019 (UTC)

Hello. This was months ago, and I had to dig through the history to remember what this was about. As the warning says, please do not use talk pages "...for general discussion of the topic or other unrelated topics". Your revised comments are still on the talk page, and you are still free to propose specific changes based on reliable sources there, if you want.

You absolutely will need reliable sources for this, however. That this was a "felony" is not supported by a reliable source which I have seen. Further, according to the Wikipedia article for Felony, the term is not used in French law. Calling this a felony in the article would likely be more confusing then helpful, but I am not an expert in French finance law. Are you? Even if you are, you will still need reliable sources. Many people have been convicted of crimes, or a crime. Sometimes this is in lead of the article, sometimes it isn't, it all depends on sources.

You should also add posts to the bottom of the section, and sign your talk page posts, as explained at Help:Signatures. Thanks. Grayfell (talk) 08:44, 25 July 2019 (UTC)
