[edit]

The Russian Wikipedia has little material on the Volga Finns that is worth translating. --Ghirla-трёп- 14:48, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Russian sources are welcome, to combine to that information already in hands. But a lot is still missing and every piece of not yet published information in English Wikipedia is worth of transliteration to English. I have collected summary of the information which was published of Volga Finns up to 1939 from Finnish sources and some interesting details was found.

Youtube video as source

[edit]

Hi everyone, I have recently expanded the section on Muromas, as it was quite limited, and I found a youtube presentation that gives some interesting information about them, but I don't know if it fits to put a youtube video as a source. The video is a lecture by Estonian archaeologist and university professor Ain Mäesalu, so it's not just a random person talking, but an expert in the field. However I don't see any source option like this. Do you think I can use it as "news"? CriticKende (talk) 09:38, 27 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@CriticKende Yes, just don't cite the video itself cite the lecture. 🪐Kepler-1229b | talk | contribs🪐 00:04, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
