Membership in "Rodina"
He was part of the Rodina (political party) coalition in 2013. 2A02:3030:817:84EF:1:0:6BEE:57CA (talk) 23:14, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
Add a Criminal information section.
Criminal status Incarcerated since XXX
Criminal charge XXX Date apprehended XXX Imprisoned at XXX 79.116.5.34 (talk) 16:46, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
- This would probably be a violation of BLP and NPOV. Mellk (talk) 13:20, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
- There is a lot of people with criminal status in here. It's factual information, he is incarcerated and he is in custody in a colony. So don't get the Npov part. People may not agree on the fairness but it doesn't change the fact. 79.116.122.153 (talk) 06:19, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
- What exactly do you propose to add? The article already describes the charges and the dates of imprisonment. Alaexis¿question? 12:15, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
- Has the ECHR also ruled that those other people were convicted unfairly? Mellk (talk) 19:58, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
- There is a lot of people with criminal status in here. It's factual information, he is incarcerated and he is in custody in a colony. So don't get the Npov part. People may not agree on the fairness but it doesn't change the fact. 79.116.122.153 (talk) 06:19, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
- I was thinking of adding a status: Incarcerated to the infobox. It makes sense, and the information is quicker to find. What are the reasons this isn't in the infobox? Opok2021 (talk) 20:13, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
Nationalist
The introduction should read "Alexey Navalny is a Russian nationalist, opposition politician..." and the rest of the article should stay the same for now. 2A02:3030:809:18F2:1:0:F5D1:5C30 (talk) 22:04, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
- He is not notable for being a nationalist, so no. Mellk (talk) 22:07, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
- According to who? Brusquedandelion (talk) 05:19, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
Parenthetical in the lead
Why is the statement "(who avoids referring directly to Navalny by name)" in the first paragraph of the lead? It breaks the flow of the paragraph and doesn't seem relevant in the first paragraph in the place where it's mentioned. Imzadi23 (talk) 11:55, 11 December 2023 (UTC)
- Where would you move it to? Alaexis¿question? 14:48, 11 December 2023 (UTC)

- And now here: FKU IK-3, Kharp. Yadsalohcin (talk) 09:23, 26 December 2023 (UTC)
Should add "Political Prisoner" to the lede
you can say "Alleged Political Prisoner" instead if neutral POV is relevant here. Stuffmaster1000 (talk) 05:01, 26 December 2023 (UTC)
Please correct the obviously wrong date?
> On 27 January 2021, Navalny was again arrested as he was returning to Russia
It was 17 January 2021, exactly 3 years ago, as even indirectly mentioned elsewhere in the page. How do such obvious typos make it through? 185.147.238.3 (talk) 12:34, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
- Done. FPTI (talk) 14:53, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

Change “navalny is” to “Navalny was”, Russian state penetentiary announced his death. 2601:98A:D82:BE0:3125:D7D0:F57B:85B8 (talk) 11:34, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
- Done seemingly. There may be a few stray "is"es, but the one in the lead is changed. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 12:13, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
New article created Death of Alexei Navalny
A new article created recently may be of interest, and has been linked to in the "Death" section - Death of Alexei Navalny. - Fuzheado | Talk 13:58, 16 February 2024 (UTC)
"Opposition Leader"
Where do people get this nonsense from?
He was a notable politician, but he was never the opposition leader. His parties have never been that big. 71.173.16.179 (talk) 00:10, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
- Agree with this. The largest opposition party, as such, in Russia, is the Russian Communist Party, which Navalny is not exactly a friend of. Brusquedandelion (talk) 05:18, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
Censorship on immigration
Why is there censorship over the fact that Navalny had made videos where he compared Muslim immigrants in North Caucasus as “cockroaches” and also dresses up as a dentist and compares immigrants with cavities that need to be removed? It's not like he ever denounced those sick videos and later still refused to denounce them when asked about it. It's disappointing to see the important finer details be censored, and seems more political and not impartial to hide such vital historical info in Wikipedia. This article shouldn't become a biased PR article that hides those actions in the past. Is it some white privilege where one can call immigrants as cavities and cockroaches and yet not have this mentioned at all on his page?
a 2007 video in which Navalny rails against “cockroaches” while images of apparently Muslim men were flashed on screen. He then goes on to “shoot” an actor playing an attacker who seemed to be wearing traditional Muslim clothing. Jung said: “Let’s be very clear, he advocated shooting dead Muslims.” In another video, Navalny dressed as a dentist, appearing to compare immigrants to rotten teeth.
[1]49.186.84.166 (talk) 09:24, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
- The evolution of his views on immigration is covered in the relevant section. There is no need to describe one 17-years old video in such detail. Alaexis¿question? 13:04, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
2 Death Sections
One of them should be removed but i am not sure which one should be the one. Multiverse Union (talk) 16:45, 17 February 2024 (UTC)
