Makhnovshchina (disambiguation)

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

This appears to be an unnecessary disambiguation. "Makhnovshchina", referring to the Makhnovist movement, has its own article. The Revolutionary Insurgent Army of Ukraine were known as the "Makhnovtsi" or "Makhnovists", rather than "Makhnovshchina", which referred to the wider movement. The article for "Makhnovism" doesn't even exist, nor are there any substantial sources that refer to a tendency known as "Makhnovism".

As such, I propose this disambiguation page be deleted, as there's no real ambiguity to clarify. Grnrchst (talk) 14:13, 25 July 2022 (UTC)

 * Delete  The army article is linked in the first paragraph of the actual article on Makhnovshchina anyway. The third title, Makhnovism, is a redirect, and doesn’t belong in the list anyway, and I have moved it to a new “See also” section. (It’s linked in the lead line anyway.) —Michael Z. 17:07, 26 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Delete There seems to be no need for the page as the term is very specific.  The tangents are covered as noted above by Michael Z. Nestor Makhno is also clearly identified in the article's lead.  --16:26, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
