Ivanov Salad by User:Marktheprices. Can somebody verify that this Salad is indeed a traditional food? Alex Bakharev 00:46, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Either spoof or unnotable. Google produces one link to google cash (nothing at the site) and the pic in the article shows tomatoes that are neither in the recipe described by the article nor existed in Ivan IV's time. I think, delete. --Irpen 01:32, 27 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Battle of the Kerch Peninsula (1942) - Just a stub to get this article rolling. Balcer 05:18, 21 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
The Overcoat (animated film) - the legendary animated feature being worked on by Yuriy Norshteyn since 1981. The handling of references may be a touch unorthodox, but I wanted to make sure that I could link to the same reference more than once for different facts. I had to sift through tons of different sources. Anyone who has some knowledge that I missed - please help (especially the exact details of Norshteyn's exit from Soyuzmultfilm in the 1980s). Oh, and this would be a good article to translate into Russian. I'd do it, but lack a cyrillic keyboard... Esn 04:27, 21 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I changed the references into the standard referencing system using the MediaWiki software. Apparently Esn is not happy with that. So much for trying to help. Errabee 13:07, 21 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Please see your talk page... I simply thought that there was more than one acceptable referencing system and that another would've been more usefull to readers of the article. I may be wrong about the first part, and I'm sorry about posting the article here - I should have tried to look carefully through WP:Reference myself first. Esn 01:15, 22 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

User:DVD R W/Скала Парус I have started translating this from ru:Скала Парус but need some help if anyone is interested. The author ru:Участник:Serguei S. Dukachev asked me to wait a week, while he adds some things, so I am keeping it in my userspace for now. I am also unsure of the name in English, Skala Parus, Parus Rock, or Sail Rock? Feel free to edit it in my userspace, as I will move it properly, retaining the GFDL history of revisions. I also need help finding a paper source or two. DVD+ R/W 01:36, 20 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
This is one of those cases when there is no established English name—whatever name you use is going to be virtually unknown in the West. I would recommend "Sail Rock", because, all else being equal, it's English and other variants are not. Of course, all other variants are to be mentioned in the article and appropriate redirects are to be created.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 14:19, 20 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I moved it from my userspace to Skala Parus, uncertain over the minor difference of whether <<Скала>> is "rock" or "cliff". DVD+ R/W 18:34, 25 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Ingria disease is spreading. User:Vladyslav Savelo started Category:Kuban, Category:History of Kuban, Category:Archaeological sites in Kuban. It would be good to know what is Kuban and how his categories relate to Category:Krasnodar Krai. --Ghirla ^-трёп- 17:39, 7 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  - Category:Kuban can actually be quite useful (see what is Kuban, although having references there would be helpful), but the contents of the rest of the cats are definitely redundant and belong elsewhere.

Georgia-Russia spying dispute is currently edited by Georgian wikipedians only. Very one-sided, needless to say. --Ghirla ^-трёп- 17:21, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The article is not edited by Georgian wikipedian(s) only. It is quite evenhanded and properly referenced using Georgian, Russian and Western sources.--Kober 17:53, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Not so. The civil war was "tacitly fueled by Russia", without references backing this up, it is not NPOV. And there are more like this one. I'll mark them as unsourced. Errabee 23:35, 2 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I removed that passage about the civil war added by an anon user. I don't see any other POV problems in the text.--Kober 04:25, 3 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Someone moved a number of articles about Russian battles from different periods into a single Category:Naval battles of the Russo-Turkish War. Which one, I'd like to ask. Previously, the categorization was more nuanced: Battle of Athos was part of Category:Battles of the Napoleonic Wars, for instance.
