This guy also happens to be Satan himself, and as responsible as anyone for the misery and poverty of millions of Russians. Palefire 02:52, Jan 16, 2005 (UTC)
Gaidar's economic policies were controversial to say the least. It is puzzling that this article makes no mention of them but makes a point of enumerating his many "publications". —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 138.251.97.97 (talk • contribs) 05:49, 29 November 2005 (UTC)
There does need to be something about the economic transition in here, but better nothing than something trying to blame him for everything bad that happened during the transition. He did not cause the inflation that wiped out so many savings. The central bank was in charge of that, the head of which was against the reformers. After he resigned, more inflation was caused when the government eased its tight policies to placate the opposition, who was against reforms. Yes, there were issues with the privitization, but to blame Gaidar personally for all the faults is incorrect. And if privitization is mentioned, it would be necessary to mention the success in privitizing the thousands and thousands of firms privitized, as well as homes and apartments. And anyways, one should remember that the planned economy was going to hell even before Gaidar started. --Sconnie 01:36, 1 May 2006 (UTC) I agree. Biophys 21:37, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
I did not read the entire book; only some portions. I tried to translate the title correctly, but someone should check. This is a very good book (although it seemed a little boring to me). It should be translated to English as soon as possible. Biophys 21:37, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
I have read it, I agree the quality of work is admirable.
Sorry if this has been previously discussed, but why is the article at Yegor Gaydar when throughout the article itself he is referred to as Gaidar? --Grahamdubya (talk) 17:39, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
Seriously? He was one of the most controversial politicians that arose after the collapse. Many people blame him for many things. So he died. People die. That doesn't excuse them from criticism. POV tag until that's taken care of. LokiiT (talk) 06:12, 17 December 2009 (UTC)
Tarzan, when you do reverts can you please respond and explain your reasoning? It shows a lack of respect when you just ignore what someone says and revert their edit with no explanation. I too don't understand why Khodorkovsky is being mentioned here. He's not an official representative of a state or organization, making what he said irrelevant in such a context. LokiiT (talk) 08:45, 20 December 2009 (UTC)
English language sources say he died of thrombosis / a blood clot, yet the article says pulmonary edema and has a Russian language article as its ref. What does the Russian article state was the cause? Lkjhgfdsa 0 (talk) 14:48, 19 December 2009 (UTC)
I've removed an old neutrality tag from this page that appears to have no active discussion per the instructions at Template:POV:
Since there's no evidence of ongoing discussion, I'm removing the tag for now. If discussion is continuing and I've failed to see it, however, please feel free to restore the template and continue to address the issues. Thanks to everybody working on this one! -- Khazar2 (talk) 00:51, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
"Gaidar married the daughter of writer Arkady Strugatsky during his time at the university in Alaska."
Nowhere else is any time in Alaska mentioned, and it does not appear in the Russian language article. The citation on the statement is not online and easily checked. Is this for real or lingering vandalism? Where did Gaidar and his second wife Maria Strugatsky meet and wed? --Kbh3rdtalk 19:00, 12 January 2016 (UTC)
