The Bolsheviks
The article says Lenin chose it as his residence from the October revolution on. This is patently wrong, it had been the HQ of the Bolshevik party since the spring of 1917 (not sure exactly who handed it over to them, but they were stationed there already by the time Lenin arrived in Petrograd in April or shortly after). 83.254.138.29 (talk) 14:45, 22 April 2019 (UTC)
