Revising Russian ORBAT in Ukraine
[edit]Hope you do not mind me adjusting the headers. I don't think any of the data above the 'Combined force grouping' section matters any more. Do you think there's much of a difference between the Cold War 'Groups of Forces' and the группировки войск there are now in Ukraine? Is it better translated as Grouping of Forces or can it be translated as 'Group of Forces?' Buckshot06 (talk) 09:07, 11 June 2023 (UTC) FwdObserver (talk) 17:37, 11 June 2023 (UTC)
- Buckshot06 I have posted your message above to a newly-created 'Talk' page adjoining my 'Sandbox'.
- In answer to your questions:-
- · Remember that this Russian ORBAT has to fit against the Ukrainian in the main article; we don't want subsections of the Russian ORBAT at that level.
- · Sub-sections *Organisational Structure* & *Initial force groupings* maintain continuity with the current article. When the Russian ORBAT is revised in that article they can be deleted then if other contributors agree.
- · Группировка = grouping, so I have put it that way for now. If you and other contributors prefer a term less clumsy in the article it can be changed. FwdObserver (talk) 18:27, 11 June 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you for not getting angry at my playing in your sandbox!!
- (1 and 2) So I will start clearing out the main article's initial sections. It's a year old now; needs to change.
- 3 Do you have any insight over the *doctrine* regarding any specific difference between Группировка = grouping and the term used to describe the Groups of Forces 1945-93 or so, eg Southern Group of Forces, ie группа войск? That was what I was getting at. Kges1901 B.Velikov opinions most welcome. Buckshot06 (talk) 19:26, 11 June 2023 (UTC)
- On the Википедия site, Группировка войск is a redirection page leading to the article Формирование (военное дело), whereas Группа войск is a specific article.
- To me группирировка implies temporary or transitory while группа is more established or permanent. FwdObserver (talk) 20:11, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
