Merger
I don't see any reason why we should be keeping eastern Armenia separate (yes, it is the correct capitalization). DenizTC 23:07, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Different terms and used differently. Eastern Armenia and Western is used alot also. --Vonones 22:51, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Can you please eloborate. DenizTC 03:30, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

Anyone objecting anymore, with explanations? DenizTC 14:36, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Russian Armenia deserves its own article. It was a separate entity culturally and politically from all the previous Eastern Armenia's. Should DRA be merged with ROA? -  Ευπάτωρ   Talk!! 14:46, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
 * This should stay as "Russian Armenia" or be moved to Armenia within the Russian Empire on the model of the Georgia within the Russian Empire I created. The only problem I can see is that Armenians were spread throughout Russian Transcaucasia. A History of the Armenian People (edited R. Hovanissian, volume 2) has a chapter on "Eastern Armenians under Tsarist Rule". Whatever the title, this page needs expanding. --Folantin 10:16, 11 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Your article about Georgia was quite impressive. I think this article should eventually be transformed into something such as that and with a title that has a larger scope.--  Ευπάτωρ   Talk!! 15:21, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks. I'm reading up on the subject. It's difficult to find a concise title that fits. On the one hand, large numbers of Armenians lived elsewhere in the Russian Empire (in Tbilisi, Baku, Batumi, St. Petersburg, Moscow etc.) and many had been living there even before the Russian takeover of eastern Armenia (there were settlements like Nor Nakhichevan). On the other hand, geographical Russian Armenia is particularly important as it forms the basis of today's Republic of Armenia. --Folantin 15:36, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

Armenian Dream
Why is "Armenian Dream" capitalized? Is it a usually used term? --Damiens .rf 18:55, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

Name of the article
Russian Armenia is not proper name, otherwise we would have similar improper names such as British Pakistan, British Australia, Russian Uzbekistan, etc. I would suggest to change the name to Armenians within Russian rule or Armenians under Russian rule, because the article discusses the life and history of Armenian people during Russian Empire, Soviet period, etc. Best, Konullu (talk) 13:07, 9 February 2013 (UTC)
 * No it doesn't. It refers to a specific period in which Armenia was part of the Russian Empire (i.e. the early 19th century to about 1917). --Folantin (talk) 13:25, 9 February 2013 (UTC)
 * British India? Armenia within the Russian Empire or Armenia and Armenians within the Russian Empire would be OK, I suppose. This is about the Tsarist period, not afterwards. --Folantin (talk) 13:34, 9 February 2013 (UTC)
 * On the other hand, the term "Russian Armenia" is used by authors such as Richard Hovannisian (see contents page of Armenia on the Road to Independence, for instance).--Folantin (talk) 13:33, 10 February 2013 (UTC)

Sources?
You reinstated said IP's edit, likewise, without any refs to support it. I would like to see sources that support your assertion that it was a "loose governorate general of Russia like Russian Turkestan". - LouisAragon (talk) 22:01, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
