Edits to the article by Ukrained2012

[edit]

I originally wrote this article, and while I don't claim to own it and I welcome helpful edits, I would like some kind of protection for my version. I don't find that Ukrained2012's rewrites improve the quality of the article for the following reasons:

1) Bad English

2) The rewrite is biased, with the author using weasel words and passing off his opinion as fact (e.g "powerful message on human rights in a totalitarian law enforcement environment")

3) The proposed version has too much unnecessary detail for what I believe to be the article's target audience: non-Russian speakers with interest in Soviet cinema and television.

Sorry, but you need to list and/or tag every each of your grievances before editing - since I raise this issue. First of all, those "unnecessary details". After which you gonna want to find and specify exact every each WP rule and guideline that you see as a ground for your position.
Until then, I'm going to restore all my edits that I still find relevant) As a courtesy, I will tag my edits as needing citations. As you may or may not notice, I specified Leonid Parfyonov's documentary as the principal source for my edits. Why don't you, as a "creator" of the article, dig the Web for such a central and indispensable source for "your" article with me? Instead of initiating a manhood size competition?
As for my "bad English", I humbly accept all your copy-editing contributions as long as they don't affect the sense. Now and forever, everywhere in Wikipedia)
Oh, and I'm not yet tired to use my poor English for enlightening you on the facts that I'm not here to "help YOU" and that you won't get any "kind of protection for your version", never, from anyone, under any circumstances.
Looking forward to establishing a fruitful cooperation with you. Happy edits, Ukrained2012 (talk) 23:45, 13 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

My unreferenced edits, deleted by a hyperambitious user, will imminently be reinstalled as soon as I find citations for a full version Parfyonov doc and other RS film critic pieces. As they were merely references to the latter, NOT my OR. Ukrained2012 (talk) 12:36, 18 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Recent edits to the article

[edit]

I am the creator and maintainer of the above article, and I respectfully disagree with several recent edits made by other users. 1) In "Other Information", bullet 2, I don't see the purpose of deleting an interesting piece of trivia that the majority of the cast earlier appeared together in another popular film. After the edit, the paragraph is just a listing of several actors whose names mean nothing to Western audience. 2) I am sorry, but criticized is spelled with a "z", not an "s". 3) In "In Popular Culture", last bullet, the edits have resulted in nothing but bad grammar and awkward wording.

I have restored to article to the way I had originally written it. Some of the other formatting and punctuation edits are well taken and appreciated. Thank you.

As I already mentioned on your talk page, your rights for this article are exactly equal to mine: there is nothing that you can do here but I can't. Too bad you fail to comprehend this. Making a similar mistake would engage me in round-the-clock edit wars over thousands of articles that I "created", and eventually destroy me, the Wikipedia, or both) Ukrained2012 (talk) 23:21, 13 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Parfyonov's documentary a major source

[edit]

Ladies and gentlemen, much of my recent changes to the article are based on that Parfyonov's documentary which I (like millions of post-Soviet TV viewers) saw several times. It is not yet referenced inline, which is everyone encouraged to do) Thank you, Ukrained2012 (talk) 23:01, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Trailer

[edit]

Here on YouTube is the official Soviet TV trailer for the series. Perhaps someone would find time and skills to embed it (the trailer that is, not necessarily that particular Youtube post) into the article. Wishes, Ukrained2012 (talk) 23:05, 23 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
