Name
[edit]I haved moved this page back to Frank-Walter Steinmeier, since that is how the name appears on official websites. See also the discussion of the corresponding move (in German) at de:Diskussion:Frank-Walter Steinmeier. --Kusma (talk) 04:35, 23 November 2005 (UTC)
Now known as Frank Steinmeier
[edit]Mr. Steinmeier does not use his second given name as a public person anymore, see [1]. He's also stated that he's actually only called Frank. In the upcoming campaign, where Steinmeier is candidate for Chancellor, the SPD will consistently refer to him as Frank Steinmeier. This change was reflected recently, when the US Department of State and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton referred to the German Foreign Minister as Frank Steinmeier.

- Both official websites given in the article call him Frank-Walter Steinmeier. Including his official campaign homepage. Therefore I would definitely recommend to undo this move. We had the same discussion in the German Wikipedia and came to a rather univocal consent that the lemma should stay with "Frank-Walter Steinmeier" as long as another form of the name is neither common usage nor has obviously been accepted by the person himself. In interviews he has clearly stated that friend call him Frank only but officially he is Frank-Walter and there is no campaign strategy to change this and claims otherwise come purely from the media.

- As nobody else commented, I moved the page back to where it belongs. -- Cymothoa exigua (talk) 18:32, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
Tendentious edit
[edit]The edit by User:Gazpr, which obviously tried to portray Mr. Steinmeier as a minion of the Kremlin, was in breach of WP:NPOV and WP:UNDUE (the added material made up almost 50% of the article), so I have reverted it. Offliner (talk) 21:33, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

Religion
[edit]Mr. Steinmeier is presbyterian (http://www.domradio.de/nachrichten/2010-05-13/das-ehepaar-steinmeier-ueber-das-oekumenische-zusammenleben). Could somebody change this and add the link? Thanks! Kanonaut (talk) 09:14, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
Trump comment(s)
[edit]I removed these as non notable. --Malerooster (talk) 21:41, 14 November 2016 (UTC)
Germanised English
[edit]Please can someone correct such unidiomatic (Germanised) "English" sentences as "In the case of the 2002 innocently imprisoned and tortured by the US Murat Kurnaz, who was first sold as terror suspect..."? And please will people whose first language isn't English stop publishing Wikipedia articles without having them checked by a native speaker first? There's quite enough bad English on Wikipedia as it is, and it's getting worse by the day.213.127.210.95 (talk) 18:23, 16 November 2016 (UTC)
Error
[edit]I found an error in the end of the article. Can someone fix it? It would be nice. The error is: "Lua error in mw.wikibase.entity.lua at line 37: data.schemaVersion must be a number, got nil instead." Thank you. - Flix11 (talk) 00:31, 26 July 2017 (UTC)
