- Hi Mellk, could you please explain to me which of my contributions have been deemed "not constructive"? I'm correcting spelling errors and common misconceptions about these Ukrainian artists Recentcontribution2000 (talk) 01:46, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
- The article title is Vladimir Orlovsky. The consensus is not to change those spellings. Please also see WP:RS and WP:POV. A random blog is not a reliable source. Mellk (talk) 01:49, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
- according to whom? this is not consistent among Wikipedia pages and i can provide multiple examples of this not edited by me. all of my edits are cited with necessary information. Recentcontribution2000 (talk) 01:50, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
- See WP:KIEV. The consensus is not to change this in historical contexts. We also have MOS:ETHNICITY. That is, the ethnicity should not be used unless it is relevant to their notability. If you wish to change the nationality then you need to demonstrate that most sources refer to the artist a certain way, due to WP:NPOV. Mellk (talk) 01:53, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
- KEIV is the Russian spelling of the Ukrainian city "KYIV" Recentcontribution2000 (talk) 02:23, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
