It has now been speedy deleted, but the fact that the article had been tweaked to make it look considerably more plausible suggests that we may be dealing with a dedicated and sneaky troll/vandal here.

• Gagarin redirect turned into Gagarin-family stub by newbie user:Gagarin1. I think it should be moved to Gagarin (family) or similar and a redirect to Yuri Gagarin should be restored. --Irpen 05:08, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
  • Yes, I believe admins should move the new article to Gagarin Family and restore Gagarin as a disambiguation page. --Ghirla ^-трёп- 08:43, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

• Alexander Guchkov stubbed, to be expanded shortly. Ahasuerus 07:05, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
• Pyotr Valuev created, a glorified stub. The succession box should be probably replaced with two separate templates; Ignatyev's data needs to be corrected (he was an ambassador, not Chairman of the Committee of Ministers). Ahasuerus 07:05, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

• Moskovskyy Pyasatel and related articles Aleksandr Kulishov, Aleksei Anfinagenov, Vasily Golyshkin, Ninel Gromyko, Kim Kulishov, Ivan Voronkov, Vladimir Shchegolev by User:Abc85. What's a village in a village and how come they have a prime minister? Conscious 15:04, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

  Please post this bunch of nonsense for deletion. --Ghirla ^-трёп- 08:43, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

  I think all of these articles should be merged into the article of the village that it's part of (this is assuming that such a place exists, and that there's some real information in there). If it's all a joke, then yes, delete it. Esn 10:27, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

  Nonsense it is not, but it is definitely not encyclopedia-worthy. The article on Alyokhnovo is the only one that should be retained. "Московский писатель" (not "пясатель"!) is actually a horticulture club (садоводство) in the village [1] [2], and the folks listed as "prime-ministers" (I really got a kick out of that one) were most likely heading the club at one time or another. As to not waste anybody's time, I'll speedy this valuable information.—Ëzhiki (ërinacëus amurënsis) • (yo?); 14:32, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

  Thanks. --Ghirla ^-трёп- 14:48, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

  Sometimes listing an article here is more efficient than prod/afd ;) Conscious 09:13, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

  It's not something to be encouraged, though. The correct procedure would still be AfD; but it just hurts me to think what a waste of time it would have been for everybody.—Ëzhiki (ërinacëus amurënsis) • (yo?); 14:56, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

• Battle of the Lower Dnieper created. Grafikm_fr 13:44, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
• Soltsy and Pestovo stubs have completed the list of cities and towns in Novgorod Oblast. Goudzovski 13:01, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

  What about starting templates along the lines of Template:Settlements of Crimea or Template:Cities in Chernihiv Oblast? --Ghirla ^-трёп- 08:41, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

  Where would they go? Main articles have a link to "Administrative divisions of whatever"; adding a template seems somewhat redundant.—Ëzhiki (ërinacëus amurënsis) • (yo?); 14:14, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

• Treaties of Tilsit expanded. --Ghirla ^-трёп- 09:31, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
• Tsentral'ny Stadium (Pyatigorsk) by Patken4. Should it be moved to Central Stadium (Pyatigorsk)? Conscious 09:05, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

  I moved it to Central Stadium (amazingly, the title was vacant) per "use English" policy. It can be moved further when need arises.—Ëzhiki (ërinacëus amurënsis) • (yo?); 17:17, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

  There's already such need, see Category:Football venues in Russia. Conscious 18:39, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

  Hmm. Well, I'll leave this to sports fans to sort out.—Ëzhiki (ërinacëus amurënsis) • (yo?); 18:54, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

• Meer Akselrod created. Ahasuerus 03:50, 22 April 2006 (UTC)
• I created {{geo-Alexander}} to tackle the horrors of the Russian word-formation as applied to Wikipedia navigation. Do you, fine ladies and gentlemen, think it is a good idea or not-so-much? See Alexandrovsk for an example of the template placing.—Ëzhiki (ërinacëus amurënsis) • (yo?); 18:44, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

  I think it's a good idea, for one. Perhaps there are some other names that need something like this as well. Esn 10:25, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

  There are definitely tons of other names that could use a template such as this one. I just didn't want to create a bunch of templates before hearing others' opinions. Others, it looks like, could care less (so at least I know the idea is viable), so I'll most likely make more templates in the future. Thanks for your comment.—Ëzhiki (ërinacëus amurënsis) • (yo?); 14:14, 24 April 2006 (UTC)

• Alexandrovsk, Russia, a geo-stub, created by me for sake of plugging holes in the disambiguation universe.—Ëzhiki (ërinacëus amurënsis) • (yo?); 16:48, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

  • Before you start populating it, I would suggest to rename it into category:Russian computer scientists and engineers or something like this. "programmer" with respect to, e.g., Sergei Alekseyevich Lebedev is way too low. `'mikka (t) 05:59, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
    • Well if it is not to low for Bill Gates to be in Category:American computer programmers, what is wrong with Lebedev? There is Category:Programmers by nationality bu not Category:Computer scientists and engineers by nationality abakharev 07:32, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
      • On the second thought there is such thing as Category:Computer scientists by nationality so maybe Category:Russian computer scientists and engineers make sense.

• It looks like articles on Russian cities/towns have recently been targeted as a part of a school project or something like that. Articles on Arti, Irbit, Magnitogorsk, Nizhny Tagil, Ozyorsk, Chelyabinsk Oblast, Polevskoy, Shadrinsk, Yugorsk, and Zlatoust (I may have missed some) have recently been edited by new users with similarly-constructed user names and same IP range. The edit pattern is very similar—they all have only very basic knowledge of wiki-markup and style conventions, they all [ignore the "Show preview" button, often making a dozen very minor edits in a row, they upload copyrighted images, ignore messages posted on their talk pages, and, while parts of the information they contribute are quite useful and extensive (which is why I'm listing this as an announcement), their contributions require extensive post-copyediting and dePOVing. I have so far copyedited the articles on Arti, Irbit, and Magnitogorsk and am now working on Nizhny Tagil. Any assistance with copyediting the rest of the affected articles would, however, be much appreciated.—Ëzhiki (ërinacëus amurënsis) 16:56, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
