Military rank

The illustration shows Morozov in uniform but no mention of his rank is made. WikiParker (talk) 11:52, 7 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

There is a lot of broken English in this article

Some examples of broken English: "In the early days of World War II, the Soviet government has set task for designers-tank-builders" "in the second half of the 50s of the creative life of Morozov it was associated with laying the foundations" "In the life A.A. Morozov was very modest and simple, loved the friendly joke, often met with young people and spoke at Komsomol meetings, his office door was nearly always open, it constantly can be seen bent over drawings and calculations. Creativity and hard work – that's a measure that Morozov valued the work of their employees. All work activity Alexander Alexandrovich is an example of selfless service and impeccable chosen cause. For the sake of the progress of the domestic tank building he lived and worked outstanding designer tanks Alexander Morozov."

The sources for the article are all in Russian, so presumably a Russian person with less-than-perfect English skills wrote this article. It really needs to be rewritten because large parts of it are basically gibberish. 92.41.112.223 (talk) 19:27, 22 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Petition for name change

Since this man was of Ukrainian origin, should we change his name from "Alexander Alexandrovich Morozov" to "Oleksandr Oleksandrovich Morozov?" — Preceding unsigned comment added by WikipolicePolizei (talk • contribs) 14:41, 3 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I would argue against this move. The Russian name Александр Александрович Морозов and the equivalent Ukrainian name Олександр Олександрович Морозов are both generally rendered in English as Alexander Alexandrovich Morozov. I am no expert in either language, but I have never seen an English rendering as Olexandr. When no clear English language sources exist to provide any other guidance, we generally go with the most common English rendering of the name for the article title.
