Just noting, I like the recent revision to "American and naturalized-Polish journalist and historian". "Polish-American" really isn't right, as that term almost always refers to a US citizen of Polish ethnicity and is exceedingly rare as an indicator of dual citizenship.

This topic has appeared numerous times over the years, but I would liek to state it conclusively, that whatever Applebaum may have written once about the Iraq war, it is not sufficient to list on this page. It goes against the guidelines, and so I am removing it. Sniper247 (talk) 19:05, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Just noting my agreement. I've been reading Applebaum for 20+ years, and the Middle East / Israel / Iraq is just not a significant focus. Unless there is a shift in her writing in coming years, a section on this would be UNDUE. CAVincent (talk) 17:08, 3 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
b) Her position as a journalist and commentator justifies having a large views section.
c) Her more recent books and articles focus more heavily on the state of the world today, as opposed to European history.
d) While most of the citations are of her own work, many also link in other papers and articles, and thus constitute 3rd sources. Sniper247 (talk) 17:24, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I agree, so please restore this section. Per BRD, until such a major change gets consensus on the talk page, the original state of the article should continue. I agree the section could use improvement, however. HouseOfChange (talk) 05:48, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Much of Applebaum's most well-knonw work is about the Soviet Union, not Russia per se. I am going to re-name that section accordingly. HouseOfChange (talk) 20:26, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
