Guys, does this page without the list of members still have any use? Maybe we should scrap it?! Matthias Lüfkens
- It's an independent legal entity separate from the World Economic Forum now, so I think it does merit its own article! Esperto di vino (talk) 13:12, 16 October 2014 (UTC)
list of Young Leaders faulty edit
1. the source (Japantimes) does not correspond with the names on the list! T. i. the source isn't a source.
2. f. e. Sebastian Kurz is not a YGL. He may have held speeches in Davos, like many other members of governments, but he is not a YGL.
The article should get a check in total!

The reference for Tulsi Gabbard being in the list of alumna is to a search page (for "gabbard") on the Young Global Leaders site, but it returns no hits. The list needs to be checked and fixed. 200.60.135.218 (talk) 00:25, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
Further to the above: it appears her entry at the YGL site has been removed. Here's an archived copy of the search results from February 8, 2022: https://web.archive.org/web/20220208110739/https://www.younggloballeaders.org/community?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=gabbard 200.60.135.218 (talk) 00:46, 15 April 2022 (UTC)

Controversy edit
I inserted the words "misspoken, saying that" into the paragraph below, to prevent it from being misleading.
The original was:
In a 2017 interview, Klaus Schwab stated that Russian President Vladimir Putin had been recognized as a Young Global Leader, and also mentioned Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau: "When I mention names like Ms Merkel, even Vladimir Putin and so on, they have all been Young Global Leaders of the World Economic Forum. But what we are really proud of now is the young generation, like Prime Minister Trudeau, President of Argentina and so on."
and it is now:
In a 2017 interview, Klaus Schwab had misspoken, saying that Russian President Vladimir Putin had been recognized as a Young Global Leader, and also mentioned Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau: "When I mention names like Ms Merkel, even Vladimir Putin and so on, they have all been Young Global Leaders of the World Economic Forum. But what we are really proud of now is the young generation, like Prime Minister Trudeau, President of Argentina and so on."
Actually, the paragraph and the one following it should be removed.
There is no controversy given that Schwab had misspoken. So why then attempt to disprove it in the next paragraph?
This looks to me like an attempt at trying to character assassinate?
If there are no objections, I will remove the two paragraphs shortly. Businessgeekinternational (talk) 08:20, 10 March 2022 (UTC)
