==Medical schools in 19th century [[Saint Petersburg]]== |
|||
While writing a new article ([[Józef Mianowski]]), I found two schools in Polish sources I am having trouble translating for Wikipedia: [[Medical-Chirurgical Academy in Saint Petersburg]] and [[II Hospital of Land Forces]]. Any better translations, Russian names and pipes to relevant articles would be appreciated.--<sub><span style="border:1px solid #228B22;padding:1px;">[[User:Piotrus| Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus ]]|[[User_talk:Piotrus|<font style="color:#7CFC00;background:#006400;"> talk </font>]]</span></sub> 22:54, 21 June 2007 (UTC) |

== Images up for deletion == |
|||
A couple of historical photos used in quite important articles are up for deletion due to violations of fair use rationales. The cited problem is that the photos themselves are not iconic enough. I have commented on one but have not looked at others. These are: [[:Image:Gorbachev-coup.jpg]], [[:Image:Gorbachev_Meeting.jpg]], [[:Image:Gorbachev_with_Yeltsin.jpg]], [[:Image:1991_coup_yeltsin.jpg]], [[:Image:Oct93 1.jpg]] and [[:Image:Gaidar_and_Yeltsin.JPG]]. --[[User:Konstable|Konstable]] 01:11, 7 July 2007 (UTC) |

=="Active measures" article== |
|||
I suspect that I will not be able to handle the "[[Active measures]]" article alone. This is a chaotic list of Cheka---KGB-FSB operations. IMO the first thing is to rename the article into something meaningful for English reader. Every intelligence service has [[covert operation]]s against the adversaries of their state and politics. No big deal. As a first step, at least various unproved allegations and other speculation must be removed: it is enough proved cases to serve as examples.

Please take a careful look at preomerzitelneysiy perl of [[:ru-sib:Россея]]. Is anyone going to finally do something with [[Portal:Russia/Russia-related_Wikipedia_notice_board/Archive05#Zolotaryovopedia|this heap of sick ooze]]? `'[[user:mikkalai|Míkka]] 19:08, 31 August 2007 (UTC) |
|||
Since meta over a year does nothing to close this incubator of ethnic hatred, I suggest to initiate the english wikipedia ban on wikilinks to ru-sib. This is an unprecedented case of wikimedia-sponsored exercise in outrageous bigotry carried out by a small group of devoted Russophobes. `'[[user:mikkalai|Míkka]] 19:18, 31 August 2007 (UTC) |

== User Israeli pics == |
|||
It looks to me user [http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Israeli Israeli] was uploading pics that all of them wasn't made by him. And he was targeting them as self-made with PD release. Two my pictures were deleted some time ago because of my request. Now I see also several pictures of other authors, that are not him definitely. I have feeling none of pictures he has uploaded are made by him. [[User:Elk Salmon|Elk Salmon]] 13:40, 7 September 2007 (UTC) |

== Help please == |
|||
Hello. I need someone who speaks Russian who is willing to take a look at [[Wikipedia:Bot owners' noticeboard#iw for Natalie Glebova|this thread]]. It seems that there is a naming issue with an article which may be causing some bots to make some edits which keep getting reverted. I would appreciate it is anyone could provide any assistance. --[[User:After Midnight|After Midnight]] <sup><small>[[User talk:After Midnight|0001]]</small></sup> 14:37, 15 September 2007 (UTC) |

==Russian wikiProjects== |
|||
Ive seen recently articles (talk pages) are tagged with both |
|||
{{tl|WikiProject Russia}} and {{tl|WikiProject Russian History}}. IMO it is an overkill and unnecessary clutter. |
|||
Please take a look at wikiProj Maths template, e.g., in[[Talk:Graph property]]. It has a parameter called "field". In our case the project is "Russia", with subproject/subfield "Russian history". |

Any comments? `'[[user:mikkalai|Míkka]] 20:10, 10 October 2007 (UTC) |

== Two articles that need a third (!) opinion. == |
|||
[[WP:OR]]. [[WP:SYN]]. [[WP:FRINGE]]. [[WP:UNDUE]]. I kid you not. |
|||
*[[Operation Sarindar]] coatrack for all sorts of allegations by [[Ion Mihai Pacepa]] - also a last stand of the "Iraq had WMD!" warriors. Should be merged with the article on the author of these allegations. |
|||
*[[Communist terrorism]] Another coatrack which both refers to actions by terrorist gangs claiming to be communist (somehow the IRA is missing in that funny list of usual suspects), and state terrorism as practised by communist states. Should be renamed to reflect this, or split up. |
|||
As of now, only two Western authors are trying to defend some sort of rationality at those two pages.--[[User:Paul Pieniezny|Pan Gerwazy]] 10:35, 11 October 2007 (UTC) |

==Russian martial arts== |

Could you please help with the Russian martial arts thing? |

I will tell you the problems: |
|||
1. [[Russian martial arts]] article needs referencing, and i couldn't find thise. |
|||
2. There are articles about martial arts in Russian that need to be translated to English. After translated to English, they also need to be referenced and expanded (the demends on the English Wikipedia are higher). Those articles are: [http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9A%D1%83%D0%BB%D0%B0%D1%87%D0%BD%D1%8B%D0%B9_%D0%B1%D0%BE%D0%B9], [http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A1%D0%BB%D0%B0%D0%B2%D1%8F%D0%BD%D0%BE-%D0%B3%D0%BE%D1%80%D0%B8%D1%86%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D0%B1%D0%BE%D1%80%D1%8C%D0%B1%D0%B0], [http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A0%D1%83%D1%81%D1%81%D0%BA%D0%B8%D0%B9_%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B8%D0%BB%D1%8C_%28%D0%B1%D0%BE%D0%B5%D0%B2%D0%BE%D0%B5_%D0%B8%D1%81%D0%BA%D1%83%D1%81%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B2%D0%BE%29]. |

::Well, we will see. In any case, he was still editing the Dutch article on Siberisch very recently, and trying to restore the volgota link I deleted [http://nl.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Overleg%3ASiberisch&diff=9940533&oldid=9071306]. I have posted the text where Zolotaryov conceded it was all a joke on the talk page of the Dutch Siberian article and informed the new but still small Wikiproject Russia there. (Also answering your later remark) I do not remember the volgota link in English, but it definitely was in the Dutch and Ukrainian version. By the way, since then, both languages have white-listed volgota (and therefore, wikislavia). In the Dutch wikipedia, Jan van Steenbergen was one of two people asking for the whitelisting ([http://nl.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Overleg_MediaWiki%3ASpam-whitelist&diff=9943106&oldid=6449275]) Why would they want a link to the main volgota page, which only lists "news" articles extending to June 2006? Jan van Steenbergen is also a journalist for Ablak, a Dutch magazine treating new developments in Eastern Europe.

Another one to watch out for:[[Siberian/North Russian language]] I've already had to delete nonsense about the language being spoken in China, Peru, Ecuador, ... Note that it is very difficult to edit all the articles about the language (even Dutch and Belarusian), because you first have to delete all references to volgota.com, which seems to be on a universal spam list in all languages. No surprise, but it is rather funny that it somehow protects those articles. --[[User:Paul Pieniezny|Paul Pieniezny]] 10:37, 26 October 2007 (UTC) |

==[[Looted art]]== |

The article has sections on looting of Afganistan and Cyprus, a gigantic section on 'looting of Germany' (primarily by Soviet Union) and no section on 'looting of Russia'.
