Official titles

What to do with the mostly unsourced "Official titles" section? It seems to mix actual political offices with epithets without any context. Both types of titles should be (and already are) discussed in prose. Those that are, are also rightly duplicated in the infobox and the succession boxes. I'd prefer if we removed the section and moved the link to List of Kim Jong-il's titles to the "See also" section. Thoughts? – Finnusertop (talkcontribs) 17:41, 31 July 2019 (UTC)

kim jong il is a north korean politician 107.1.219.57 (talk) 16:53, 6 February 2020 (UTC)

If you're talking about the lead, I think the current one makes more sense when it says he was the leader of North Korea. If you're talking about categories, a few of them are subcategories of Category:North Korean politicians so that is covered as well. – Finnusertop (talkcontribs) 18:29, 6 February 2020 (UTC)

Birth name in first line

It is not normal to include birth names of famous people in the first line of an article? Frankly I trust Soviet records after Soviet collapse over North Korea's claims if there is any doubt there. Kylesenior (talk) 04:17, 25 April 2020 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 27 April 2020

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected redirect at Kim Jong-il. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.
