Organizer?

I have removed text that seemed to imply Mirzoyan was one of the organizers of the famine, given that he succeeded Goloshschyokin in 1933, and sources that do not even mention him. It doesn’t make sense to include a death toll from before Mirzoyan even had leadership in the lead. I also included that Cameron credited Mirzoyan with recovery, which the article failed to mention. - Kevo³²⁷ (talk) 10:44, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Additional Information from Cameron

As the Wikipedia:General sanctions/Armenia and Azerbaijan have now been revised to explicitly sanction "Politics, ethnic relations, and conflicts involving Armenia, Azerbaijan, or both—broadly construed and explicitly including the Armenian genocide—are placed under an extended confirmed restriction", and no longer "all pages with content related to Armenia, Azerbaijan"~ I am re-including relevant information regarding Soviet Kazakhstan from historian Sarah Cameron, who credited Mirzoyan's reign with recovery "ultimately, from good luck" due to the weather, and more about his policies during this time. Sources that mention the country he ran during the time he was in charge are relevant~ especially the effects of his aid denial, though I am primarily sourcing from Cameron's direct analysis of him. Everything added is historical record of his policies and their effects. Dsrlisan85 (talk) 00:49, 26 September 2023 (UTC)
