Talk:Andrey Dikiy

Untitled
Andrew Diky (Zankevich) was NOT anti semetic! He was a historian and a specialist in Who's Who in the Soviet Government.

Andrew Diky had close Jewish friends, where he also managed to improve his understanding of who was running the Soviet Union.

Lebed and Kladez Istiny
Dikiy is quite possibly an antiSemite and a pseudo-scientist but the sources: online emigre almanach Lebed and especially online "theological magazine" Kladez Istiny are hardly reliable enough to represent it as a fact. I have attributed those opinions until more reliable data are available Alex Bakharev (talk) 03:04, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
 * "Dmitry Talantsev" googles up a lot of mainstreal Christianan journalism, so I wouldn't discount him. And Reznik is a major figure, as far as the subject matter is concerned.-Galassi (talk) 11:06, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

Who are Дмитрий Верхотуров and Дмитрий Таланцев? --Borealis55 (talk) 20:45, 25 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Would you kindly restate that in English? -Galassi (talk) 12:20, 28 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Andrew Diky was NOT anti-Semitic! I have removed this, and replaced it withg "Anti-Communist", which he definitely was. Shokorus (talk) 11:06, 21 September 2012 (UTC)

Editing
Galassi: Thank you for atleast returning the photo up. (Спасибо). However, there are other things that I had, which are striclty keeping to content. what normally is written about people. Lived in Richmond Maine, wife's name, translated name of books, etc. all that is "CONTENT". where he died, where he is buried, is also all "CONTENT". The fact that Alexandre Solzhenitsyn spent alot of time with him, yes he did. thats where he used alot of his material for his books, (YOU CAN SEARCH FOR THIS INFO ONLINE). If you dont want my editing to interefer with his 'anti-semitism', ok, I wont touch it. but practically evrything else that was stated, was "CONTENT", all real info. based on facts, and found on the net. please edit, the death date is incorrect under the photo. please edit, Haivoron, is NOT where he was from, but from Gaivoron-Chernigov Obl. Why do you feel like God, and just wipe everything off, without inspecting first? you could easily have questioned me... thank you for some of your understanding. --Shokorus (talk) 19:56, 11 October 2012 (UTC)

User talk:Galassi, I don't understand, what is wrong with my contribution to the article about Andrey Dikiy? I have only written, that he was of noble Cossack origin, and he didn't recognized Ukrainian identity and the Historiography of Hrushevskyi. Am I not right? Ушкуйник (talk) 09:22, 13 May 2015 (UTC)

Two Hundred Years Together
Isn't this work too long to be described as a "tract"? I've never read it since it, unlike A.S.'s works, has never been translated fully into English. 72.105.72.132 (talk) 21:47, 26 July 2018 (UTC)

Dikiy as Source for Solzhenitsyn
This claim immediately stood out to me as probably incorrect, as I am in the process of reading Two Hundred Years Together in the authorized French translation. I am also referencing the original Russian, since I am not satisfied with how the French edition translates the footnotes. So I searched for Dikiy's name in Roman & Cyrillic characters throughout both editions, and I did not find any reference to/of this person. I checked out the (long list of) Russian-language citations provided for this claim and here is what I found:

Citation [15], the book Jews in the KGB by Vadim Abramov is the most relevant citation and the source of the claim that Solzhenitsyn was influences by Dikiy.

Citations [9] and [10] were to the same web page, so I consolidated them into one citation. This repeats the claim made by Abramov.

Citation [14] is another article repeating the claim made by Abramov.

Citations [11], [12], [13] all failed verification. None of them were relevant. None of these pages mentions Solzhenitsyn, let alone his book Two Hundred Years Together. I have no idea what the thinking was behind referencing them.

After getting rid of the irrelevant citations, I found the claim in Abramov's book re: Dikiy. It is unsupported. In fact, one claim made by Abramov and repeated by the online article writers who cite him, that Solzhenitsyn got the idea that a certain Boris Pozern was Jewish from Dikiy, is completely absurd. Pozern has an entry in the Russian Jewish Encyclopedia published by the Russian-Israeli Encyclopedic Center of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences from 1994-2011 and freely available online. Whether or not Dikiy ever wrote anything about Pozern, I don't know, but it is irrelevant to the veracity of Solzhenitsyn's statement in Two Hundred Years Together, which is cited to the above mentioned Russian Jewish Encyclopedia. Abramov, on the contrary, provides no proof/citations for his accusation of plagiarism, which is very serious.

Before I edited this article, that accusation, that Solzhenitsyn "used Dikiy extensively" was not in quotations nor in any was was it indicated that this was a statement of opinion--an entirely baseless one at that.

It was also confusing to see this is the "Biography" section of this article, so I created a new section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.37.107.29 (talk) 03:41, 30 March 2024 (UTC)
