User:Kaganer splited Stasov article into Vladimir Vasilievich Stasov, Vasily Petrovich Stasov and a dab Stasov page.

  - Moved into Pyotr Rachkovsky. The cat Category:Russian spies could be [mis]taken for modern Russia. How about Category:Okhranka or Category:Imperial Russia's secret service? ←Humus sapiens←ну? 23:34, 30 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    - Maybe name the category Category:Secret services of Imperial Russia? Okhranka is to narrow, and an apostrophe in the title is a bad style for wikipedia. abakharev 00:47, 1 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

User:LevKamensky created Category:Russian intelligentsia in which he placed his dad Aleksander Kamensky and every other Russian Jew he could think of, from Alexander Blok to Marc Chagall, but ignoring such quintessential intelligentsia families as Stasov and Struve. --Ghirlandajo 23:43, 15 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- This guy also added to the category in question a rather anti-Semitic Lev Gumilyov. I guess, if this category is useful, it will survive, Jews or not. --Barbatus 00:59, 16 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  - I would suggest to delete this category: it is way too broad and POV. Generally those who declared themselves "progressive" placed themselves into "intelligentsia" while depriving "reactionaries" from this right. A category to make sense must be well-defined, or we shall have edit wars here. Every writer, artist, actor, priest, engineer, politician, clerk, could declare himself "inteligent": rephrasing a polish say: "Kompania ne wielka, ale bardzo porządna". mikka (t) 01:23, 16 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    - Agree. Otherwise I'll have to include myself, hee-hee. --Barbatus 01:34, 16 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    - Delete. Too loaded a term, there's never been any agreement on what/who it covers. There is an article on Intelligentsia (though it sadly lacks any Russian angle) but this can't be a category. Trapolator 03:35, 16 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
      - Ha, User:LevKamensky also created An intelligent and vandalized the vfd page. I think he should be banned.Trapolator 03:43, 16 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
        He's been blocked for a week. See here. --Ghirlandajo
    - Let's cfd this category as arbitrary and not too informative. Otherwise, we should list all of Russian journalists, philosophers, etc. Where is Mark Aldanov? Where is Anton Chekhov?

- Should we start a separate category for Decembrists? The existing cats like Pre-Soviet executions and Russian revolutionaries are not particularly relevant. --Ghirlandajo 19:17, 12 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
  - There are only a handful of them. I'd suggest something like category:Russian insurgencies, with revolutionaries as a subcat. Also, I don't think decembrists were particularly notable; their silly feat was blown up out of proportion by Soviet propaganda. mikka (t) 21:23, 12 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    - I disagree here. Their feat could have been silly, but there was noble challenge in it. Think of the fact that they voluntarily exchanged their high station for the life in Siberia. Their fame benefited from Pushkin's poems, Tolstoy's novel, and Herzen's journal more than from writings of Lenin and his followers. --Ghirlandajo 22:03, 12 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    - Agree with Ghirlandajo. Trapolator 00:46, 13 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
    - This is not a place for discussion, of course, but I must note that the 'Decembrists' did not voluntarily changed their nothing (but wives of some of them did), for they went to the Senate Square to win, not to loose; that their, however noble, attempt of a coup was ill-conceived and went largely unnoticed (see, for example, the famous short poem by Tutchev); and, finally, that their importance had undoubtedly been overblown by the Soviets. ... All that, however, does not meen that a separate (sub?)category could not be useful. --Barbatus 14:28, 13 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

To use 'yo' for 'ё' means to kill the very idea of compatilibity, since no foreigner knows how to produce 'e' in each particular case. There's no rule to transform 'ё' in 'yo' in any of Russian transliteration standards. Arseni 15:45, 3 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

This is not a new issue. "Yo" is recommended for "ё" as per Transliteration of Russian into English article, which is so far the only standard more or less commonly used across the English WP (having one (any) standard is always better than having none, and just because no single accepted system exists does not mean we should abandon enforcing consistency when it is possible and logical—see extensive discussions on the corresponding talk page). Since"ё" and "е" are different letters, they are transliterated differently. As for "compatibility" (I assume by that you mean always using "ye/e")—this is what redirects are for. For names with a "yo", a redirect spelled with "ye/e" is, of course, a must, but accuracy should not be sacrificed just because people cannot produce correct spelling.—Ëzhiki (erinaceus amurensis) 15:39, September 9, 2005 (UTC)
