I have a strong suspicion that the assassination section has copied text almost word for word from Orlando Figes' book on the Russian revolution "A People's Tragedy". I've read this book and recognise the phrasing. I no longer have a copy of it to check what parts are breaching wikipedia standards, but if anyone has a copy then could they change it? It would be a shame to have to rewrite the entire section. Blankfrackis ( talk) 17:14, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
"Leftist terrorist groups" should be changed to "leftist organizations." Whether they were actually committing terrorist acts is tenuous at best and under no circumstances is such a claim NPOV. - ?
In 1911 he ordered Rasputin out of St. Petersburg, and was obeyed. this was followed by an investigation by Lukyanov, minister of religion. The empress wasn't very fond of him after this point. And continued to support Rasputin.
Rasputin also prophesied his death the day previously.

Was Stolypin really interior minister "under Ivan Goremykin" (section: Governor and Interior Minister) and in office 1904-1905 (according to the succession box)? If the latter is correct, shouldn't be "under Sergei Witte" who was Chairman of the Committee of Ministers 1903-1905. But according to List of Ministers of Interior of Imperial Russia Stolypin was Ministers of Interior 1906-1911 and preceeded by Pyotr Nikolayevich Durnovo. About Durnovo you can read that he was Minister of interior 1905-1906 and succeeded by Stolypin. My conclusion is that Stolypin was both Prime minister and Minister of Interior 1906-1911, thus not "under Ivan Goremykin". Correct?-- 79.138.209.66 ( talk) 22:25, 5 December 2008 (UTC)
Was Stolypin really a keen taxidermist - can someone verify this?? - No reference in the article —Preceding unsigned comment added by Andrewbiden ( talk • contribs) 18:36, 27 February 2009 (UTC)
Some of this page reads like a cheerleader. "Maliciously misrepresented"? "grossly misleading"? I think maybe it should be cleaned up by someone with more of an interest in conveying the facts about Stolypin, rather than trying to rehabilitate his reputation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.130.39.203 ( talk) 02:01, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
The information box conflicts with what is said in the second-to-last section which claims he died on Sep. 14. According to the Encyclopedia Britannica, Stolypin died on the 18th. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Vopz ( talk • contribs) 01:38, 17 November 2010 (UTC)
I'm no expert on this period, but I found suspect the suggestion that Stolypin used castration to keep the peasantry in line. There is no mention of this in the only source provided for this part of the text. Anyone help here?
Separately, the allegations that his daughters pushed their brother off a bridge also raised questions? Nandt1 ( talk) 00:22, 26 November 2013 (UTC)
Reviewing the article's history, these unsourced claims (and a few more, such as his having allegedly trained with the ballet but withdrawn after injuries) were all inserted during a brief editing bout by an unregistered editor with no other history on Wikipedia. I feel justified in treating them as overwhelmingly likely to have been vandalism pure and simple. If any user wishes to provide reliable sources to back up any of these claims, please be my guest!

Stolypin seems to have been born in Dresden on 14 April 1862, and was later baptized on 24 May in the Russian Orthodox Church in the same city.
Stolypin was shot twice, once in the arm and once in the chest by Dmitry Bogrov, a leftist revolutionary, trying to rehabilitate himself.
I have added a new section on Screen portrayals, kicking off with Eric Porter's appearance as Stolypin in the British film Nicholas and Alexandra. I am allowing and encouraging the addition of any other portrayals that may have been in films produced by other countries and possibly by actors who may be better known.
Almost all of the third paragraph in the Legacy section (beginning "There remains doubt, however") is lifted from Michael Lynch's "Reaction and Revolution: Russia 1894-1924" (the section of the book is "Difficulties confronting Stolypin", which in my 4th edition book is pages 47-49). Minor phrasing and order have been changed, but is verbatim the same except for that. (Sentences the same or only one word from the text include: "The deep conservatism from the mass of peasants made them slow to respond" and "Most peasants were unwilling to leave the security of the commune for the uncertainty of individual farming"). I do not know exactly what rewrites would have to be done, hopefully this catches the eye of someone more versed in these things. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.237.247.169 ( talk) 20:07, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
