Talk:Streltsy uprising

Shouldn't a history entry have at least one reference? Cernansky (talk) 00:02, 6 August 2008 (UTC)
 * yes! I added a couple of notes, and one from streltsy (from a general work), but only the russian article seems to have good refs.  +sj +

Work by Paul
Paul's work "The Military Revolution in Russia, 1550-1682" is not a proper source for that which he is cited. Ccxvi (talk) 05:36, 10 December 2013 (UTC)

Agree, but the biographies of Peter by Henri Troyat and Robert Massie provide good coverage of the uprising and its background (Troyat's description is both precise, dramatic and evocative, and he was born in Russia and knew that age like his own back pocket). 83.254.151.33 (talk) 23:23, 18 March 2014 (UTC)

Lead ref to streltsy status
Weren't the streltsy all temporarily abolished as regiments when this took place? That's what streltsy currently says (abolished in '89, lifted a decade later). What was the status of the groups that were being given these orders, starved, etc? Was the title of streltsy something you kept after leaving your post? Did the uprising men include former regiment members (since there had been many more a generation before)? +sj + 04:08, 1 December 2009 (UTC)

Aftermath confusion
Peter is said to have initially tortured the rebels when he was not in Russia, then again when he returned. This is nonsensical. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:CF99:2080:B899:DAE4:C026:541B (talk) 15:26, 28 June 2015 (UTC)
