== "... communist revolutionary, statesman, and later a dictator" ==

@]: there's no doubt numerous RS can be found to support the perception Tito was a ']', that is not the issue here. I'm not sure whether there is a manual of style related to this, but you can notice numerous articles of traditional 'dictators' do not stack this perception/characterization together with general facts in the very first sentence, but rather opt to properly elaborate on it down the lede: e.g. ], ], ], ] and ]. No one reading past the first sentence is going to miss this. -] (]) 12:48, 5 March 2023 (UTC)

:::Yes, I can do that. I'll also change (the laudatory) description ''statesman'' to (the neutral) ''politician'', and recast the "benevolent" bit to reflect the sources. ] (]) 13:38, 5 March 2023 (UTC)

::::::Now I have read it. I don’t personally believe putting “later a dictator” in the first sentence has any issues as a general description of his rule. But I am fine with describing it in other paragraphs too.

::::::::@]: there are many points-of-view among academics on a 'general description of his rule' and simplifying it to a 'later a dictator' is devoid of any context, is not ] and I'd say is ]. On top of that, also what I said about stacking perceptions with general facts. You can compare these articles to their equivalents on the professionally edited '']'', then reevaluate when and how proportionally balanced (to academic consensus) is it to describe each individual subject as just 'dictator'. –] (]) 19:11, 13 March 2023 (UTC)

You think I haven't read your user page? I know exactly what you're trying to do, I don't want to waste time on ant-fucking around the words "Some scholars".

As much as you would wish him to be, Druže Tito is no perfect saint. Misplaced Pages is not an altar. His crimes, controversies must be covered.

If you are ignorant on what happened to the Germans of Yugoslavia, I advise you to educate yourself on the subject instead. If you know it well but are trying to sideline it... shame on you. ] (]) 15:31, 9 April 2023 (UTC)

::::Captions need to be ]. Usually, there should not be more than three lines of text in a caption. Captions are not ''entrefilets''—insertions of additional "interesting" facts to serve as examples. They are not supposed to provide context for the prose, by providing extra specificity. Rather, the image provides illustration to the prose, the prose provides relevance and context for the image, and the caption is there as a mere necessity: only to bridge ''a possible gap between the prose and the image'', to make it more certain that the reader will benefit from the illustrative function of the image. The image is ''not an illustration to the caption''; it is not subordinated to the caption. Rather, the image is subordinated to the prose, and the caption is subordinated, very much so, to ''both'' the image and the prose. My suggestion is that you add what you think is missing in the prose, ''to the prose'', and not insert a whole unsourced paragraph through a functionally false caption. —] 20:14, 10 April 2023 (UTC)

NKVD Officer?

In and category below it shows, it says that Tito was a nkvd officer. If its true? there's no evidence of that in the article itself Ataman (talk) 22:09, 18 August 2023 (UTC)

He's been accused of participating in the killing of leading Yugoslav comrades, such as Milan Gorkić. This biography is faulty. TheUzbek (talk) 22:13, 18 August 2023 (UTC)
