Talk:2017 Ukraine ransomware attacks

Why not on main page?
Hi all, given the severity of the ongoing cyberattack thus article should be notable enough for appearing on Main Page's "In the News" section. What's the process to follow to achieve this? Thanks, DPdH (talk) 11:04, 29 June 2017 (UTC)
 * Just seen it in Main Page. DPdH (talk) 00:55, 1 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Next time please nominate it at In the news/Candidates. --BorgQueen (talk) 01:28, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

Quit adding nations
Quit adding United States, Russia, China, India. etc as the perpetrators. It's all hearsay at the moment.--2601:3C5:8200:B79:4DD5:21BF:4586:3B0 (talk) 11:40, 1 July 2017 (UTC)
 * I agree with this statement. The user reverts all edits claiming 'vandalism' based on absolutely unreliable sources. There is no consensus on this issue from experts. Ukrainian officials should not be considered authorities on cyber matters. Moreover, with their current conflict with Russia, they are obviously biased and prone to point fingers in that direction with no evidence. Moreover, the very same 'source' of this claim says: "Oleksandr Turchynov claimed there were signs of Russian involvement in the June 27 cyberattack, although he did not give any direct evidence". I strongly believe the 'suspect' should be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.73.233.51 (talk) 18:30, 3 July 2017 (UTC)


 * 1. The removal of information with the source is vandalism
 * 2. The difference between the suspect and the accused is a big one...
 * 3. Ukraine suffered the most from attacks and the attacks were first directed namely on Ukraine. Official authorities of Ukraine have every right to suspect and links to state websites are reliable sources.
 * 4. It is very interesting to observe when one ip from the Russian Federation supports another ip also from Russian Federation Flavius1 (talk) 18:47, 3 July 2017 (UTC)


 * The article is clearly biased given current political situation. I don't believe Wikipedia should reflect that. How you can claim my IP is from Russia is simply beyond me. It shows nothing but your own bias in this matter. But whatever, do what you want. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.73.233.51 (talk) 19:06, 3 July 2017 (UTC)
 * IP is easily checked. The article was not written by me. I just created it. And all the participants who wrote it are biased are not then? No. But when appear anonymous IP from Russia and delete information - this is bias, to my mind! Flavius1 (talk) 19:13, 3 July 2017 (UTC)
 * I'm tracing the previous user's IP to London, UK, so I don't know what Flavius1 is talking about. He clearly seems to have an axe to grind in this Ukraine/Russia debate. This has no place on wikipedia. Is it too much to ask to stick to established facts? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.127.221.45 (talk) 23:20, 3 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Not everyone who disagrees with you is from Russia. They just might disagree with you because the have a legit reason too. Also you seem like the only person who keeps adding it back and others have already expressed why it should not be here.--75.66.124.118 (talk) 02:08, 4 July 2017 (UTC)

The other users who read the article or wrote it - do not agree with you and do not delete information. Now only dubious anonyms write here one by one and change an IP address with anonymizer made easier. And only they are very interested in it. Flavius1 (talk) 08:57, 4 July 2017 (UTC)

 * Ukrainian authorities? The ones that claim that either Russia drops nukes on Donbass or sacrifices thousands of troops daily? Yeah, that is a very reliable source alright. 93.159.236.12 (talk) 15:52, 5 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Read the title of the article "Attacks on Ukraine." Accordingly, if the Ukrainian authorities suspect someone - then this is a reliable source and this should be in the article. If suspected some other country - then it would also beFlavius1 (talk) 16:31, 5 July 2017 (UTC)

The entry involving this event is proposed at Talk:2017, where I invite you to comment. --George Ho (talk) 15:20, 1 July 2017 (UTC)

Related to "Ukrainian crisis"?
I saw Template:Ukrainian crisis transcluded to the bottom of the article. However, why has the article not mentioned the connection between the Ukrainian crisis and the recent cyber attacks? --George Ho (talk) 06:01, 4 July 2017 (UTC)
