Source-derived summary

Péter Csizi (born 24 August 1982) is a Hungarian politician, member of the National Assembly (MP) from Baranya County Regional List between 2010 and 2014. He represented Pécs (Baranya County Constituency I) from 2014 to 2018. He was a member of the Committee on Youth, Social, Family, and Housing affairs from 14 May 2010 until 5 May 2014, the Legislative Committee from 6 May 2014 to 16 February 2015, and the National Security Committee from 16 February 2015 to 7 May 2018.

Csizi was appointed chairman of that governing council, which was formed in September 2017 to help the work of Zsolt Páva, the mayor of Pécs. As the city suffers from heavy debts and Páva lost confidence in the Fidesz, the opposition portal Magyar Nemzet considered, Páva was "placed under guardianship" and Csizi became the de facto manager of Pécs.

Csizi was defeated by the independent candidate Tamás Mellár in the 2018 parliamentary election. For a week it seemed, Csizi obtained a mandate from the joint list of Fidesz–KDNP (being the last one), but the governing coalition lost a single seat against Jobbik after processing the votes received from abroad.

Personal life

He is married. His wife is Mária Csiziné Ratár. They have a daughter, Csenge.

Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Péter Csizi” as hungarian politician. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

Editorial reviewA useful biographical orientation record, particularly for establishing names, roles and a first chronology. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1982, 2010, 2014, 2018—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1982-08-24. The account is most persuasive where Péter, Csizi and Hungarian can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the people & ideas register because the source frames it as hungarian politician. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

Chronology provides the most reliable spine for this subject; interpretation should follow only after identities and dates are secure. The source revision retrieved here is dated Apr 16, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q7264689. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1982, 2010, 2014 and 2018.

Critical limits

Later biographies can compress uncertainty and repeat inherited reputations, so apparently settled claims may still require comparison. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Read biographical claims against dates, named institutions and the cited references. Distinguish a subject’s later reputation from evidence produced during their lifetime.
