Constitutes
Maria Zakharova is listed as "official spokesperson, propagandist". I don't think we yet have any policy on this, but isn't an "official spokesperson" always a propagandist, more or less by definition? If so, then this makes the second const, propagandist, redundant. The place to add "propagandist" would be as a const on the page of "official spokesperson". Actually, now I think about it, I think there is a policy about trying to make const expressions as specific as possible.
A different but related point is the question of whether we are ever going to have lists of spokespeople who are unofficial? If not then "official spokesperson" would be better as just "spokesperson". The common theme to both these points is trimming redundancy. -- Robin (talk) 04:22, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
- It would be more direct language if all "constitutes=spokesperson" etc, were changed to propagandist. Spelling it out.
