As someone who has been working in the Ukrainian cultural and political sphere since the late 1980s I will tell you that what I place in here is not based on some person like or dislike.

Currently, I am the president of the Ukrainian Canadian Professional and Business Association of Montreal, the number of matters that I am seeing as a professional bibliographer, librarian and information professional being posted primarily on the conflicts in east Ukraine make me and many other professionals sick.

I spent nearly ten years working in Ukraine with many different artists and professionals. My experience with them during that period helped me better understand what really happened in Ukraine during a period from the county's independence after its referendum on December 1, 1991.

Globalization is a fact, and if others don't know about individuals in different countries, how will they benefit from the so called benefit of 'globalization'? This is an individual I have been following since the early 1990s. I had the opportunity to work with him for nearly two and a half years, and while our business venture did not go well I have maintained contact with him as a person who has similar values in terms of Ukrainian culture. In following him I can see a and understand why people left the former Soviet Union. The mentality of Ukraine has only now started to change.

Rostyslav Shtyn and I knew of one another in the early 1990s as community leaders in two different countries.

This page should not be speedily deleted because... (Rostyslav Shtyn is not known in the English speaking world, however, he was one of the first persons in a contemporary Ukraine to understand music and entertainment as a business. He composed Ukraine's first "Rock Opera'". He backed a number of Ukrainian singers and groups which are still around today, musicians I know personally and who have always spoken well about what it was working in one of the first independent studios in Ukraine setup by Rostyslav Shtyn. If the world is to become more of a global village, then maybe the judgement of people who have studied a particular part of the world and lived in that part of the world for a decade, should be considered as enough validity to include this individual. In one of his projects in 1992, I know from personal musician friends and journalists that he worked directly with Michael Andre Lewis, aka Mandré. I am still scouring three different digital graphic archives to be able to include that in that section. For Ukraine Rostyslav Shtyn was a pioneer, just because you don't know that doesn't mean that wasn't a fact and should not be included for non-Ukrainians to know something about contemporary Ukraine. I worked and lived in Ukraine for over ten years as a print and broadcast journalist, I have personally followed the music business in Ukraine since one of Ukraine's first independent music festivals in 1989. I believe that you pass judgement much too quickly, and in fact that your judgement is based on a world that is only English speaking and therefore doesn't care about individuals who contributed to the popular culture of a country that speaks a language that is other than English. I will be in the very near future be contributing to other pages related to this article as well as how it relates to Ukrainian Rock Music.) --Wpawlowsky (talk) 16:56, 24 July 2015 (UTC)
