Talk:Siberian Ingrian Finnish

Copy edit
I have done some basic grammar fixes for the article, please change anything I have got wrong. Also I have added a sources section, which was required by the sfn references. TSventon (talk) 23:46, 17 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Thank you @TSventon ! Super! I would also highlight “swamps” and “Yenisey River” with links so that the distance of this migration can be seen: ".. that several dozen families deported to Siberia spread across two thousand kilometers (1,200 mi) from the swamps of Western Siberia to the Yenisey River in Eastern Siberia and created a new language?"

 * , I have updated the hook, you could do that yourself as no one has replied at the nomination yet.Uhave three suggestions
 * Could you check that all the facts from the hook are in the article followed by citations? Per WP:DYKG, (The hook fact should be cited in the article, no later than the end of the sentence it appears in.) I can't see "two thousand kilometers" or "swamps" for example.
 * Could you explain where Ingria was (for clarity, not DYK rules)?
 * Also if you include an image in the nomination, it should be mentioned in the nomination as "(pictured)". The map in the nomination is not mentioned as "(pictured)" and probably doesn't work well as a small image.

 * Thanks @TSventon for the help and suggestions!
 * About "two thousand kilometers" or "swamps", I added phrases containing "migrated to a distance of two thousand kilometers to the village of Verkhny Suetuk [ ru; et] beyond the river Yenisey" and "Here on the Bugen River, among forests and swamps, they founded a settlement named Bugene." to the text of the article. There are really a lot of swamps in Western Siberia (in particular in the Omsk region). I thought that "the swamps of Western Siberia" is a stable expression and a well-known fact. There were swamps around many villages (Ryzhkovo, Finy, Matveevka, Orikovo, Larionovka) where native speakers of Siberian Ingrian Finnish lived in Western Siberia.
 * About picture. The picture with the map is not beautiful, it is not suitable for display in DYK, also this picture does not show Verkhniy Suetuk village (it did not fit in the picture) which is beyond the Yenisey. @TSventon can I remove the "...main page image/DYK|image=Siberian Ingrian Finnish settlements.png| ..." tags for delete this picture in Did_you_know page myself? There is a warning message below: "Please do not edit above this line unless you are a DYK volunteer who is closing the discussion".
 * Ingria is a historical region that roughly coincides with the current Leningrad Oblast in Russia.

 * Thank you for the additions, I know very little about Siberian geography and DYK reviewers and the main page audience probably know equally little.
 * I have removed the code for the picture, I think that won't be a problem as no-one has started a review yet.
 * Mentioning Ingria isn't vital, but could help people who have never heard of it. TSventon (talk) 21:49, 19 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Ingria - ok, Thank you @TSventon for help! Ubaleht (talk) 08:21, 20 September 2023 (UTC)
