Talk:Russian National Standards

Proposed merger
This seems like it would be more useful (not to mention easier to patrol for spam) if it were to be merged into the main article on GOST. --Dynaflow  babble  13:19, 14 September 2009 (UTC)

Disagree. GOSTs are not Russian national standards! "Because GOST standards are adopted by Russia... it is a common misconception to think of GOST standards as the national standards of Russia. They are not... The national standards of Russia are the GOST R standards." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.147.121.251 (talk) 23:37, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

Disagree. I support the previous comment. GOST is a system of standards that was established in the Soviet Union and later served as a foundation of national standard systems of the post-Soviet republics. Direct association of GOST with the National standards system of Russia would be erroneous and pose several negative connotations from numerous perspectives.
