Changed names to reflect common English usage & for consistency in Wikipedia|Ukrainian names used for places in Ukraine by English world media/scholars today

In common English usage Ukrainian names are used for places in Ukraine by English language media and scholars these days

Thanks for your contributions on Wkikipedia. But I noticed [ that in your edit here] you did not use the common English names of Ukrainian cities that should be used throughout English Wikipedia for consistency within articles, for consistency with others Wikipedia articles and for consistency with the Wikipedia article on the cities themselves. You seemed to have used the names of the cities how you prefer them. That is fine in your private live, but that is not how it works on an encyclopedia as Wikipedia that should have the same names throughout its pages. I don't know if you ever came across a church that distributed literature in which "Jesus" was sometimes spelled as "Gezus" and then in another pamphlet as "Jesush". Please stick to well tested Wikipedia conventions that work.

Common English names (to reflect common English usage & for consistency within this article + others.

"the Ukraine"
"the Ukraine" isn't the (English) common name of Ukraine since December 1991 (& for consistency within this article + others about Ukraine)

"Great patriotic war"
Changed non-English term into common English name (also for consistency within Wikipedia) + due to decommunization in Ukraine the term "Great Patriotic War" is outlawed

"the Crimea"
Removed political motivated description of city and people (when the club still existed (it does not since 2013...) there was no 2014 Crimean crisis

Removed political motivated description of Crimea

Symon Petliura
Symon Petliura was not a warlord like Nykyfor Hryhoriv and Anton Denikin but Petliura was one of the leading figures of the Ukrainian People's Republic. In Soviet propaganda Petliura keeps being portrayed as a warlord to give people the idea that the wish for an independent Ukraine did not exist. This particular frame was then parroted by Western authors who until recently did not have a clue what went on in Ukraine and probably did not really care if they got their information about Ukraine right (but were more interested in "cool stories").

Pavlo Skoropadskyi
Pavlo Skoropadskyi was not a warlord like Nykyfor Hryhoriv and Anton Denikin but Skoropadskyi was the head of state of the Ukrainian State. In Soviet propaganda Skoropadskyi keeps being portrayed as a warlord to give people the idea that the wish for an independent Ukraine did not exist. This particular frame was then parroted by Western authors who until recently did not have a clue what went on in Ukraine and probably did not really care if they got their information about Ukraine right (but were more interested in "cool stories").

Biographical
moved page per WP:COMMONNAME, "Viktorovych" is his patronymic. Patronymics are not part of common names, see the article names of other Eastern Europeans like Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy

Per official transcription used by (=http://www.naftogaz.com) Ukrainian Government website and per Romanization of Ukrainian. As both forms are widely used, they are both common names. Therefore I think we should follow the form used officially

No more Communist names
In order to comply with decommunization laws the city was renamed on by the Ukrainian parliament to.

On 15 May 2015 President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko signed a bill into law that started a six months period for the removal of communist monuments (excluding World War II monuments) and the mandatory renaming of settlements with a name related to Communism.

Rename city request on talkpage
{₩{subst:Requested move|NewName|reason=Kirovohrad was was officially renamed effective on 14 July 2016 to Kropyvnytskyi, thus the respective article should be renamed per WP:MODERNPLACENAME. The place had no established English name (and never had) and has no English language footprint. Article is currently called after former local name that is not in use since 16 July, thus I propose to rename it to its new official local name according to WP:P-NUK and WP:UKR.}₩}

Argument(s) for WP Talkpages
Good argument here: "some editors to set aside what is in the sources about him. Ten points for guessing what weight we should give to your own opinions"

[//en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Ihor_Kolomoyskyi&diff=641791330&oldid=641611558 Not everything belongs in a Wikipedia article]

Russian press "leaving out information to create "facts""
A Ukrainian fighter aircraft delivered an airstrike said ITAR-TASS, Rebels said the blast was caused by an airstrike, but Ukrainian security officials said the separatists had fired a heat-seeking missile at a jet and inadvertently struck their own headquarters said The Washington Post. By leaving out the information by the Ukrainian security officials ITAR-TASS made a piece of propaganda, by including the information by the Ukrainian security officials The Washington Post made a genuine piece of journalism. Again here ITAR-TASS says People’s militia in the conflict-hit south-eastern Ukrainian city of Sloviansk downed a Su-25 fighter and "again forgets" to include Ukrainian authorities side of the story, The Washington Post does do that and the we find out: Rebels in the town said they had brought down a Su-25 attack aircraft, but this was denied by Ukrainian authorities. See this CNN article on how journalist should report about Ukraine (and how to report about any armed conflict).

Requested move (how to make)
Random example 1 → Random exampley 1 – Per official transcription used by the Ukrainian Government website and per Romanization of Ukrainian. As both forms (current and proposed) are widely used, they are both common names. Therefore I think we should follow the form used officially and according to the Ukrainian names Romanization rules.

these where → these were ("these will be" correct if the event hadn't happened yet: then write "these were" (when writing about the past))
This website is right about when to use "where" and when to use "were" but not completely relevant, since it is about the distinction between using where and when, not the distinction between where and were. Perhaps a way to avoid these where errors is to imagine that you are writing about a future event. If these will be would be correct if the event hadn't happened yet, then these were is correct when writing about the past.
