Anthony Albanese was nominated as a Social sciences and society good article, but it did not meet the good article criteria at the time (May 7, 2024, reviewed version). There are suggestions on the review page for improving the article. If you can improve it, please do; it may then be renominated.

This article is written in Australian English, which has its own spelling conventions (colour, realise, program, labour (but Labor Party)) and some terms that are used in it may be different or absent from other varieties of English. According to the relevant style guide, this should not be changed without broad consensus.

This article must adhere to the biographies of living persons (BLP) policy, even if it is not a biography, because it contains material about living persons. Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced must be removed immediately from the article and its talk page, especially if potentially libellous. If such material is repeatedly inserted, or if you have other concerns, please report the issue to this noticeboard.

This page is about a politician who is running for office or has recently run for office, is in office and campaigning for re-election, or is involved in some current political conflict or controversy. For that reason, this article is at increased risk of biased editing, talk-page trolling, and simple vandalism.

If you are a subject of this article, or acting on behalf of one, and you need help, please see this help page.

Under "Personal life" in the second paragraph, I suggest changing

"Albanese describes himself as "half-Italian and half-Irish"[331] and a "non-practising Catholic".[332]"

to

"Albanese describes himself as "half-Italian and half-Irish"[331] and a "flawed Catholic".[xxx]"

Minor spelling error in the article:

Fixed. Thanks for pointing out the problem. HiLo48 (talk) 01:47, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request: sentence structure

Under the international affairs subheading (in the PM of Australia section) this sentence could be better: The relationship between Australia and China started to improve since Albanese became prime minister.

I suggest changing it to either: The relationship between Australia and China started to improve once Albanese became prime minister.

or: The relationship between Australia and China has started to improve since Albanese became prime minister. Rinzenn (talk) 09:31, 28 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
