The early part of the biography smells a bit like BS. Typical propaganda jargon from the period. Can we please remove that? After all Gagarin can't talk back any longer. 105.4.6.55 (talk) 10:54, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, wikipedia is an encyclopedia that anyone can edit. That's both a blessing and a curse. To avoid having an edit like the one you suggest reverted, justifying it here with e.g. WP:NPOV would be a good approach. (— 𝐬𝐝𝐒𝐝𝐬 — - talk) 11:13, 15 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
