Russian politician?
editWhy is he described as Russian politician? He is in fact Ukrainian collaborationist politician and should be described as such.--Ymblanter (talk) 13:35, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
- Because he obtained Russian citizenship and was an official of the Russian administration in Kherson. 93.187.185.84 (talk) 16:15, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
- Also because his ethnicity was Russian. Elserbio00 (talk) 22:25, 23 November 2022 (UTC)
- It doesn’t say that about his ethnicity in the article, as far as I can tell. I think it would make most sense to just call him a Ukrainian collaborationist politician, or something along those lines. HappyWithWhatYouHaveToBeHappyWith (talk) 03:48, 18 December 2022 (UTC)
- I’ve removed "Russian" for now. I can’t find specific guidelines on what to do in this situation, but I don’t think him receiving a Russian passport and living in Russian-claimed territory as a collaborator for a month before dying justifies calling him "Russian and Ukrainian" in the lead.

Car accident?
editCar accident? Considering all of the bullet holes in said vehicle. I doubt that it was a fender bender that did him in. Just more Russian lies in a fruitless effort to save face. 142.165.189.80 (talk) 00:18, 5 December 2022 (UTC)
- Do you have a source for this? If so, I'll see if I can add it in. HappyWithWhatYouHaveToBeHappyWith (talk) 17:58, 16 January 2023 (UTC)
Why did you delete the link that Kirienko, deputy head of staff to Putin, was present during the funeral of Stremousov? It is obligatory for the Wikipedia to dissiminate Ukrainian conspiracy theories about the death of Stremousov or is it optional? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.32.67.10 (talk) 20:54, 29 April 2023 (UTC)
Clarity in "Conspiracy theories and political career in Ukraine" section
editIt seems like a lot of the text in this section covering Stremousov's various antics and arrests was translated somewhat roughly from Ukrainian. While I think it's good that the material has been added at all and I thank the editor who translated the material regardless, it's a little hard to understand, especially for someone who isn't too familiar with 2010s Ukrainian politics. For example, the sentence about him being "involved in the attack on the SBU convoy" - what attack? Why did he do it, and what were the legal consequences, if any? It's hard to tell which parts are janky translations vs just vague descriptions.
I'm gonna try to tackle this issue myself in the coming days by Google Translating the source articles and finding reliable corroborating material where I can to work out exact, but it's gonna be a bit hard since I can't speak Ukrainian, and I'd happily accept help from others in the Wikipedia editor community, especially those who may be more familiar with the events being discussed.

Image
editAre there any better images of this guy? The current one is kinda bad and pixellated. Has he ever posted any of his various vlogs under free licenses or something, or maybe good-quality pictures of him created by the Russian government? HappyWith (talk) 05:06, 7 December 2023 (UTC)
