 * Double headed eagle, stumbled upon it while reading the Ivan III article. It's not new, but I haven't seen it here. KNewman 17:14, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Started Category:Rurikids, which I find very informative. --Ghirlandajo 13:44, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Many families have more or less questionable claims to be Rurikids? So what are the criteria for inclusions? Ever claimed to be a rurikid? Ever was officially recognized as such? Unquestionable claims? abakharev 13:58, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
 * I don't see any controversy there. The classical circle of Rurikids have been defined for centuries by the Gosudarev Rodoslovets, Velvet Book, and the Russian Genealogical Book. I took the liberty to add the Ostrogski to the list, as their Turovian descent has been well demonstrated in the 20th century. Me and Dima Kudinov once listed the key sources on the subject at http://rurik.genealogia.ru/istoch.htm. I kind of specialize in Gediminids, however, but any wikicontribution on this subject is impossible due to uncooperative nature of Polish and Belarusian editors, who already turned the Troubetzkoy into complete mess. --Ghirlandajo 15:14, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
 * On the side note, Ostrogski's do need work. --Irpen
 * Can the Category:Rurikids include subcategory Category:Rulers of Kievan Rus etc? Otherwise the interwiki with ru:Категория:Рюриковичи and uk:Категорія:Рюриковичі becomes extremly tricky abakharev 13:01, 27 October 2005 (UTC)

 * D. S. Mirsky is better known in the English-speaking world than here in Russia. This is English Wiki, after all, so we should stick to the name used in the West. The articles on Chekhov, Tsvetayeva &c link to D.S. Mirsky and not to Dmitry Mirsky. The current spelling conforms to the wiki usage, cf. articles on D. H. Lawrence, E. M. Forster, H. G.

Anyone else does not know the difference betseen Russia and Soviet Union? wikipedian no reader, wikipedian are writer ... And by the way there was Russian Empire who had reations with Japan, too. mikka (t) 07:45, 20 October 2005 (UTC)
 * I would not move it back, but IMHO the distinction between Russian and Soviet is counter-productive. It was the same country with different names - Muscovy-Russian Empire-RSFSR-Soviet Union-Russian Federation. If the Soviet Union was a different country from Russia, then what was the name of its inhabitants? Sovki? If the Lybia has the official name of People's Socialist Jamaheria the relations are still Russian-Lybian, not the Soviet-Jamaherian abakharev 13:34, 20 October 2005 (UTC)
 * It was not (and is not) the same country. And the name of the inhabitants, yes, they were called "Soviet people" or "sovki" or "Soviets", if you wish. mikka (t) 18:14, 20 October 2005 (UTC)

 * T-72MP and Tupolev Tu-119 (wow, Nuclear powered aircraft!) by User:TNW consists mainly of a large infobox by now. BTW is it Russian or Ukrainian tank? abakharev 05:33, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

 * Grigory Samuilovich Frid by anon for some reason is written completly in German. Needs translation and wikifying. The German of the article is very easy, even I understand most of it. Maybe just dump the article into German wiki and leave a stub here? abakharev 08:01, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Check to see if the Germans have it. Not if, then go right ahead. Zach (Sound Off) 13:49, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Done abakharev 00:05, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Is the original article not worthy? I very much appreciate your opinion because I'm no good in German. Just in case anyone would be interested to translate -- the copyvio question came up and someone is currently trying to verify that through the German wikipedia embassy. You can check the status on the page with the list for required translation. Regards -   Introvert   talk  03:26, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
 * I think the subject is notable and desrves a normal article. I probably will not do it myself (have more interesting projects for me projects in preparation), but certainly I somebody would do the article it would be great. abakharev 05:16, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

 * My suggestion is to go with the most common name and make the other spellings redirects. Zach (Sound Off) 17:46, 2 October 2005 (UTC)

 * I have moved quite a few articles of the Moscow Metro project by User:Camerafiend to the apostroph-less names. Obviously it is created a loss of inconsistensies - the titles are without apostrophes, but in the bodies of the articles and his nice infoboxes the names are with apostrophes. Can somebody help User:Camerafiend to sort it out? Now we have a few remaining days of school holydays in Australia and I want to spend them with my son in Great Dividing Range abakharev 01:00, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
