Wikipedia:Romanization of Russian

The Wikipedia romanization of Russian is a modification of the BGN/PCGN romanization of Russian. It is used in the English Wikipedia per Naming conventions (Russia) as suitable for Anglophones.

Abbreviations are romanized with capitalization as indicated, e.g., ДШК = DShK, unless there is a common English rendering.
