This article is totally different from the Romanian one and it is not a biography but mostly an enumeration of claims made by her political adversaries. Sad to see something like this on Wikipedia, this site should not be used for political battles!
Whatever one thinks of her merits, there is no denying that Udrea is one of the more controversial figures in Romanian politics of the past decade, and it would be a disservice to conceal that from readers. However, if you have specific issues with specific wording or incidents, do let me know and I will address those. - BiruitorulTalk 00:01, 9 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
In support of the comment above, I'd like to draw your attention to item 2 in the list of general considerations in Wikipedia:Edit requests:
Is the request specific?
While I understand your concern about the article, implementing such a change is a fair amount of work. You can make it easier to implement by suggesting specific edits. For example, you hint that the Romanian version is in better shape. Many of us do not speak Romanian - is it possible than a translation some sections would be appropriate here? If so, you could do the translation, and then, if an independent editor feels the material is suitable, and complies with the guidelines in Wikipedia:Translation#How_to_translate, then the material could be added. If you are proposing that some material should be removed, you should identify what should be removed, as well as the policies supporting the removal.--S Philbrick(Talk) 16:44, 9 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
