I think this should be combined with the Jawad Maliki thread? the are about the same person. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Cyaxeres ( talk • contribs) 14:14, April 22, 2006 (UTC)
I can't find a reference to a 1946 birth date online, so I removed it. His birth year appears to be uncertain to journalists; it looks like "c. 1950" is good enough for now.

Article currently states he returned to Iraq after the fall of Saddam Hussein. Hussein was pushed out at great expense by powerful forces. What motivated and/or funded Malikis' return? Did he make a deal with the same forces who deposed Hussein or did he rise as a natural leader? Who paid his travel expenses coming home? Outofthebox ( talk) 04:22, 22 July 2009 (UTC)

This is copy of a recently found secret letter from Maliki to Muqtada Sadr and Iranian embassy in Baghdad, in which he suggests that heads of Sadr Militias take refuge in Iran for a temporarily period in order to not be arrested or killed by Americans (in their new campaign agaist terrotists), and not lose current positions they already got. http://www.peyamner.com/filesbank/img/200207035424.JPG

He is a bad man. Even worse than Saddam. He supports shiite terrorists who kill americans and hes been arresting those who oppose him or even said anything. He kills civilians. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 162.84.137.60 ( talk) 01:20, 12 October 2007 (UTC)

On Maliki calling Iran a dear friend--"it illustrates that the regimes deriving legitimacy from different versions of democracy in the Middle East can be warm friends."
Does it really illustrate that? Really? Me thinks this needs a citation. Framed0000 ( talk) 23:03, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
This article needs to be expanded to include the operations that Maliki ordered the ISF to carry out in Spring 2008, particularly in Basra, Mosul, Sadr City and Maysan province. The section about "stability of the coalition depends on an alliance between Sadr and Hakim" seems dubious given the large-scale fighting between the Mahdi Army and the Iraqi Security Forces recently.

A statement about al-Maliki as a puppet of the Iranian government was removed in the first paragraph of the page. This page should be watched for POV statements. fussbalspieler7 ( talk) 14:15, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
The last sentences of the opening paragraph currently read "In June 2014, the United States has asked for Maliki to give up his premiership in favor of someone who could better represent the Iraqi people. The problems that have arisen are all political, and the terrorists are now Sunnis. Nouri has been the premier of a democratic Iraq for 8 years, so it would seem sensible to transition him out." The first sentence needs a citation or it should be removed. As far as I can tell, the last two sentences have been in that paragraph for quite some time, but they seem to lack a neutral point of view. Xijjix ( talk) 23:42, 2 August 2014 (UTC)
Could we please make up our minds about whether or not his surname should be rendered as "Maliki" or "al-Maliki" in the article body? What is stylistically correct? Colipon+( Talk) 22:29, 12 November 2014 (UTC)
After searching a lot around, I came to the conclusion that al-Maliki is still Vice President. I changed the infobox to "Incumbent" as the apparent official Vice President website still features him here: [2]. Also press agency AFP refers to him as Vice President, and today Turkish Foreign Minister mentioned him with that title. I'll introduce a short paragraph now to add these facts and sources.

Election results are completely missing in the whole article. They're missing for 2005, 2010 and 2014. They would explain why al-Maliki did not want to leave office, as he had clearly won the 2014 elections with the by far strongest political alliance. Actually, it is indeed not the best democratic fashion for a ceremonial President to nominate anyone else then the person, who had contestest the elections as the top candidate of his alliance. I understand that he would not have been able to reach a majority in parliament, but one can imagine that in a western country this would have been a scandal, to name a successor, while the predecessor did not even announce his resignation. -- SamWinchester000 ( talk) 02:39, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
