For an article about a potential foreign head of state, the amount of grammar mistakes, and inconsistency is large. Was the station closed on the 13th or the 17th? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.201.165.196 ( talk) 23:22, 16 March 2009 (UTC)
Also, nothing about the Clash with the president is cited. Well it is, but the article cited does not have any dates, nor mention of Reporters without Boarders. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.201.165.196 ( talk) 23:24, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

The article written is totally biased and one sided. Andry Rajoelina is being painted black. Ravalomanana made the mistake of stepping on his toes.. by closing his TV and radio stations. Andry himself did not expect the public support which he used to his benefit. Opputunity knocks onces.. which he did not miss out on. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 196.20.160.163 ( talk) 06:05, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
Which is the correct birthdate? The article says May 30, but the sidebar states March 30. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dehagido ( talk • contribs) 22:55, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
Can someone put IPA or even non-IPA on how to pronounce his name. I have heard media pronounce it as An-drezzle-oh, but that sounds very incorrect. 74.232.43.248 ( talk) 02:48, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
It's close to (i)Ahndj(y) Rah-dzo'EL. Let me see if I can figure out how to put the IPA in. Malagasy is tricky because pronunciation varies widely (even for the same speaker). There are kind of "optional" sounds for most words. Lemurbaby ( talk) 00:05, 17 November 2010 (UTC)

I suggest to add this. This is not bullshit, this is real. And time will make it clear , the kind of criminal this man is. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.8.7.189 ( talk) 08:38, 18 November 2010 (UTC)
SHUT...DOWN...EVERYTHING! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.196.190.160 ( talk) 18:36, 21 November 2010 (UTC)
The photo in the infobox does not comply with Wikipedia's standards of neutrality ( NPOV). Obviously, the page has been the target of Rajoelina's detractors, and the photo perfectly illustrates this situation. I understand that this photo is convenient because it's in the public domain since its owner is the:
"work of a United States Department of State employee, taken or made during the course of an employee's official duties. As a work of the U.S. federal government, the image is in the public domain per 17 U.S.C. § 101 and § 105 and the Department Copyright Information" [1].
Since this photo is of very low quality, the person is not facing the camera, and his face expressions are NOT his day-to-day facial expressions, I found a far better picture of him, exactly where the first one is located, with the same public domain rights. The photo was found on
this document
[1], which is a press release of some sort from the Madagascar US Ambassy. This official and public press release, which content was created by the US Embassy of Madagascar, contains another photo of Rajoelina, which is much better than the existing one. Comparison:
As you can tell on this before/after demonstration, I think we can all agree that the second picture is by far the most neutral picture of him. I agree that this is not the best pic ever, but it's much better than the first one, and they hold the exact same public domain rights. Replacement.

Hi,
Since 2009, a lot of things have changed, and I think it is about time to update this page with fresher info, and maybe less anti-Rajoelina spirit. I am going through a series of changes on this page, and would appreciate your feedbacks about the new elements I bring on the table. Here they are:
Pfff, that's a lot of biased, distorted, or simply false content thrown out the window. I think we can safely say that this page was once assaulted by Rajoelina's detractors, but as the smoke clears, the POV values of Wikipedia re-rises from the dead !

This article (in French) can add provide support for many details, including the fact that Rajoelina's father is a retired military leader. Lemurbaby ( talk) 03:56, 17 June 2012 (UTC)

This article is now outdated and needs work. Since 2014, there have been very few updates, and those that do lack detail. The 2018 election and some developments during 2020 COVID do not encompass his now almost three years of Presidency. Older sections are also outdated and are inconsistent with information in 2009 Malagasy political crisis. I am no Madagascar expert so am not well placed to improve much of this myself.

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
Another GAR nomination. This article was made a GA in 2013. However, this needs to be reassessed because it fails the broadness required for a GA. Andry is now president of Madagascar and has been for 4 years now. But, the article has rarely covered much of it in the presidency section. In order for this to remain a GA it must have Its presidency section updated and expanded. Onegreatjoke ( talk) 18:21, 6 January 2023 (UTC)
