[edit] merge?

How about a merge of Battle of Moon Sound into Operation Albion? --Yuriy Lapitskiy 21:20, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

Probably, "No". Moon Sound battle is important enough because of "Slava" sinking. --Yuriy Lapitskiy 21:17, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Tsesarevich vs. Grazhdanin in the Battle of Moon Sound

About "Tsesarevich was not Grazhdanin yet that time" I can say that AFAIK it was renamed AFTER October Revolution. --Yuriy Lapitskiy 20:48, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Moon Sound or Moonsund?

I think that Moonsund is used more frequently. Even Wilkipedia's geography section refers to Saarema and adjacent islands as Moonsund archipelago. It's also known in German and Russian military histories as the battle of Moonsund. Vitoldus44 05:06, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

It's really unimportant. "Sound" is easier for English-speaking reader. In Russian it will be "zoond". Just create redirect and add an alternative spelling to the top of the article. --Yuriy Lapitskiy 05:34, 12 March 2007 (UTC)
