If you are interested in Ukraine-related themes, you may want to check out the Ukraine Portal, particularly the Portal:Ukraine/New article announcements and Portal:Ukraine/Ukraine-related Wikipedia notice board. The New article announcements board is probably the most important and the most attended one. Please don't forget to anounce there the new articles you create. Adding both boards to your watchlist is probably a good idea.

Finally, in case you are interested, similar boards exist at Russia portal as many editors contribute to topics related to both countries. The respective boards there are: Portal:Russia/New article announcements and Portal:Russia/Russia-related Wikipedia notice board. Of course there are also many other portals at Wikipedia or you may just get right into editing.

Again, welcome!

On a side note, please do not jump into quick deletions and name corrections. The names at which articles arrived are there probably for a reason. Some corrections may be in order. But making this as your primary activity is rather counterproductive. Please help us improve the coverage of Ukraine by writing more content for the existing articles and adding to the new ones. --Irpen 18:49, 13 September 2006 (UTC)


 * Pryvit! Thanks for contributing to the wikipedia. Please add summaries to your edits. Thanks, KPbIC 22:15, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

I was wrong to revert your edit in toto. Your replacing of Russia by the SU in the text was entirely correct. Apologies.

In addition to the good advise above to ALWAYS use summaries, also please make sure that you are always logged in when you make an edit. There are many reasons to avoid edits under IP addresses. Sometimes people get logged ofg my accident, so checking for that is useful. Thanks, --Irpen 22:35, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
