Untitled
editThis page needs to be updated to cover his arrest this month in relation to the 2000 coup (Rabuka faces court for deadly mutiny in 2000 - http://origin.theaustralian.news.com.au/wireless/story/0,8262,4-19118606,00.html)
Moce.
Hi there! You (Xorkl000) said that Rabuka never represented the Cakaudrove East Fijian Communal constituency. Could you clarify what constituency he did represent? Thanks! David Cannon 08:49, 3 December 2005 (UTC)
Native of Nakobo?
editThe biography, Rabuka No Other Way (Eddie Dean and Stan Ritova) says: "Rabuka was born on September 13, 1948, in a typical 'bure' (thatched Fijian hut), overlooking Nakobo Village, on the south coast of the island of Vanua Levu. ... The infant Rabuka, like his contemporaries, was delivered in Nakobo Village ..." (page 20). The page goes on to say, however, that Drekeniwai is his home village.

The French
editRabuka recieved the French Medal of Honour also in his military career perhaps someone should add this to the article.
Nickname Rambuka
editDue to the seemingly Rambo style of his first coup, headlines referred to him as Rambo Rabuka and even Rambuka. This nickname became so popular that many mistakenly beleived that it was his real name. Be nice to see this information added to the article. 203.87.29.207 (talk) 22:06, 5 March 2010 (UTC)Barrie Wynn 06/Mar/2010
Assessment comment
editThe comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Sitiveni Rabuka/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.
I found that this page was innaccurate, in listing Rabuka's religion it said none. It is well known that Rabuka is a methodist. The site also indulged in an unsubstantiated personal attack on Rabuka allegeing some sort of vague, fantastical sexual deviancy with carpets and telephones.
Wikipedia I am no expert but you need to clean up this page.
