I think this should be a list of them but am going to do some research Secretlondon 18:19, Nov 7, 2003 (UTC)
There's way too little on how Stalin used the few powers the office gave him initially to turn it into so much more. One might think the powers of this position came from nowhere. VolatileChemical 02:37, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

But it's important to realize too that Stalin was given those positions by Lenin, who knew their worth, as a means of using Stalin to counterbalance Trotsky. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.70.69.148 ( talk) 07:06, 17 May 2010 (UTC)
Isn't the current title a mistranslation? It seems to me that the correct translation is "Secretary General of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union" (rather than "General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union"), similar to "Secretary General of the United Nations", "Attorney General", etc. 130.126.108.129 ( talk) 13:17, 12 March 2012 (UTC)
Was Malenkov ever elected/appointed as the Fist Secretary of CPSU? My understand is that the position of First Secretary was instituted in Sept 1953 and that Khruschev was the first person to hold it. Does anyone have any references for the supposed March 1953 service by Malenkov as First Secretary? Nsk92 ( talk) 18:19, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
Malenkov was neither General nor First Secretary. Turning a list of General Secretaries into a "List of Secretaries" is not feasible as then we would have to include all the other secretaries of the CC, making the list much larger and also missing what the list actually tried to inform us about.

Most sources mention that Malenkov was General/First Secretary as well as Premier from shortly after Stalin's death until September 1953 (when the Politburo forced him to choose between party and ministerial posts, and he chose to retain the premiership), but he doesn't feature in the list here at all.-- 109.152.242.28 ( talk) 01:07, 25 July 2012 (UTC)
Floquenbeam: Ridiculous is to write what's contradictory to scientific historical and other quite reliable sources? Well, then I should consider that the Earth revolves around the Sun, all the Jews should be killed since they "killed" Jesus, and the Earth is flat, so on. I'm not a bigot, I base my edits on concrete sources. I like uncyclopedia, and when I can, I edit there, but I think this is not Uncyclopedia, though you think it is.

At the 17th Party Congress in 1934, Stalin was not formally re-elected as General Secretary and the office was rarely mentioned after that but Stalin retained his positions and all of his power.
There is no citation for this last bit: Stalin retained his positions
. What positions are we talking about?--

This article refers to the position of General Secretary of the Communist Party and its equivalent positions and its officeholders. It does not necessarily refer to paramount leaders of the Soviet Union. This is why I do not believe it is accurate to place Stalin's tenure as General Secretary to end up on his death, rather than when he actually abolished and relinquished the position in 1952. He still retained power over the party, but not through the position of General Secretary, and hence that is why I changed the end of Stalin's tenure from 5 March 1953 to 16 October 1952. The Joseph Stalin article also follows this. Kalivyah ( talk) 21:15, 25 March 2024 (UTC)
