On 27 December 2022, it was proposed that this article be moved from Obtshak to Obshchak. The result of the discussion was moved.

Untitled[edit]

The article should be rewritten. As the notion of common criminal fund is not Estonian specific, it is widespread on all the ex USSR territory. And the Estonian specific data would be included in the separate section if it is relevant to the topic at all.Artur Zinatullin (talk) 10:14, 29 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

correction[edit]

The error in diff from 26 February 2017, more than 5 years.

There are no RS about nationality of Tarankov, only "родом из Могилева" (borned in Mogilev). Correct. — Yuri V. (t•c) 07:18, 25 October 2022 (UTC).[reply]

Obtshak → Obshchak – WP:COMMONNAME: the most common form in English-language reliable sources[1] (corresponds to romanization by the modified Library of Congress system widely used in academic and popular-academic literature). —Michael Z. 22:59, 27 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

In the last 35 years, the proposed spelling has represented 70% to 100% of the top two spellings.[2] (The current spelling appears in an all-time total of about three books.) —Michael Z. 04:36, 28 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom. I see that you've proposed a lot of transliteration changes, maybe it makes sense to do it in a centralised place. Alaexis_¿question? 09:14, 28 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I think the bigger picture might warrant a reevaluation of WP:RUS. But this handful of article titles each depends on the clear usage in sources of one particular name, so I don’t see the need for a combined vote. —Michael Z. 14:43, 28 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support per well-researched nomination. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 03:15, 29 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
