Unsourced changes - April 2025
edit2600:1700:22F4:7A00:68C2:7692:874B:7285, it's getting close to violating WP:3RR for me, can you please find a reliable source to claim he is Herzegovinan and not Bosnian? You've claimed it was by your personal knowledge, however, we don't use personal knowledge on Wikipedia unless cited by a reliable source. Thanks. PEPSI697 💬 | 📝 07:01, 26 April 2025 (UTC)
About the Kentucky Colonelship...
editSo, yes, Marko is a Kentucky Colonel now. Mainly because I actually nominated him as a joke. It was me. Kentucky sent me his cert. It's now on it's way to him. Here's the reddit posts to prove it: https://www.reddit.com/r/eurovision/comments/1lbqzno/so_as_a_joke_i_nominated_marko_bo%C5%A1njak_for_the/ https://www.reddit.com/r/eurovision/comments/1lc51e2/marko_bo%C5%A1njak_acknowledges_that_hes_been_given/ OrlandoApollosFan69 (talk) 03:18, 17 June 2025 (UTC)
Do you think "The Honorable" is a good title for him? Or would changing it to "Colonel" or "Admiral" be better? Breadispain (talk) 20:23, 17 June 2025 (UTC)
- I feel like if Colonel Sanders has "Colonel" above his infobox, I think we can do the same for Marko as well. OrlandoApollosFan69 (talk) 03:08, 18 June 2025 (UTC)
- @Venama: I do think a reddit post might not be a good enough source for it to stay on the page, but since it's both true and Colonel Sanders' page has the same prefix on his page for the same title I wouldn't call it vandalism. Breadispain (talk) 20:34, 24 June 2025 (UTC)
"Controversy"
editI've cut out the section about the Charlie Kirk Instagram posts because I believe it's far beyond what WP:BLP allows for. Most Croatian online news sites are run chiefly as tabloids nowadays, pretty much like The Sun (UK), copying each other's articles (often verbatim with no changes or additions), with proper journalism mostly restricted to paid subscribers and government-owned news sites. With that in mind, although the event got plenty of coverage, it was clearly exacerbated and farmed with titles such as "Marko Bošnjak shocked the public..." (as was the title of the source in the article), "Marko Bošnjak's disgusting comments...", "See Marko Bošnjak's shocking posts...", "Marko Bošnjak infuriated people..." and so on.
Instagram drama isn't exactly encyclopedic content per se. It might be more appropriate to find or create a summary of his unsavory public statements as a way to have a fuller picture of his public image, since that may have had an effect on his work in general (e.g. the hiatus). ☀ Rȕnolīst | þⰁč 09:11, 12 September 2025 (UTC)
