Family Influences section is problematical

The Family Influences section is problematical and also very unusual content for an encylopedia (being quite subjective). It should be cut down into a much shorter section (with new title) that just details his family background. For example, it need only contain one or two sentences recording who his maternal grandfather was, not whole paragraphs much more devoted to this grandfather's life than the subject itself.

Agree. Ivar the Boneful (talk) 23:28, 26 February 2021 (UTC)

I went ahead and removed a substantial amount of unneeded material from that section. Should anyone wish to restore tales of limping grandfathers, droughts, youth in romantic terms and a good dog, please feel obliged. CalDoesIt (talk) 15:31, 27 February 2021 (UTC)

Neutrality and OR tags

I was a bit surprised by the state this article is in. The article makes some pretty extravagant claims, notably that Taylor was the "creator" of Fonterra, which (a) isn't backed up by the sources provided and (b) makes little sense - Fonterra was a merger of two existing conglomerates, lobbying for a merger is not the same as creating a company. A statement that Taylor recommended the creation of Fonterra is sourced to an article which does not even mention Taylor. There are further issues with sources not backing up statements in the article, which presumably have been introduced by the same editor. The section on "Farm Partnerships Australia" is cited to a source which is about an entirely different entity. ITBF (talk) 14:58, 4 October 2023 (UTC)

I have removed the offending information and removed the tags.--Jack Upland (talk) 04:00, 14 February 2026 (UTC)

• Angus Taylor (politician) → Angus Taylor
• Angus Taylor → Angus Taylor (disambiguation)

– Don't see how the differences of Angus Ellis Taylor and Angus Taylor could be confused. Politician Angus Taylor is likely primarily topic anyways. Seperate article titles Servite et contribuere (talk) 07:48, 21 March 2025 (UTC)

• Support, the politician is the primary topic. I T B F 📢 14:29, 25 March 2025 (UTC)

Photos

Unsure if the 51 photos of Taylor in this Flickr album are suitable for Wikimedia Commons. They've all been uploaded as public domain, and the Flickr user seems to have other photos they've taken of Australian political figures. But some of them mention in the description that they were taken by Taylor's office with permission provided, with no evidence of that permission, while others are photos taken in Parliament or Government House that the uploader may not have had the right to release as public domain in the first place. Noting the current infobox photo is not ideal, a crop of one of the photos in that album could be better, if allowed. Thoughts? Neegzistuoja (talk) 02:15, 13 February 2026 (UTC)
