Which Uragan system is being talked about?

[edit]

The Uragan BM-27 MLRS is in use by both the Ukrainian Army and the Novorossian forces. It is a Soviet designed and manufactured. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BM-27

The article talks about an Uragan missile system and leads to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buk_missile_system#3S90_.22Uragan.22 I sincerely doubt that a Russian NAVAL missile was used in the attack. 220.235.193.198 (talk) 14:35, 21 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

 Done Thanks very much. It has been fixed. RGloucester 16:09, 21 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

You should also remove the "Russian made" claim as if the Novorossians captured Ukrainian Army Uragans, they could be either Soviet or Ukrainian made.220.235.193.198 (talk) 00:57, 22 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done I removed this for a moment. On more careful reading, the source does say "Russian-made" and the content in the article clearly qualifies that the information is on behalf of the Ukrainian position. Speculation on our behalves contravenes Wikipedia policy (WP:OR). Nevertheless, thanks for your input, 220.235.193.198. --Iryna Harpy (talk) 06:10, 24 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Category:Mass murder

[edit]

The article starts with the definition of the event as an accident in which people were killed. The word "murder" does not occur in the article. No source call this murder. The categories are not appropriate.They will be removed unless strong arguments can be made why they should be in the article.--Ymblanter (talk) 14:50, 13 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
