[edit] The title

is right now rather awkward, but I don't know how to name this. "Chechen insurgency" is broadly used, but it would be misleading (if compared to complexity of Iraqi insurgency article), and also it's a very limited list as assassinations, aircraft crashes, terrorism, war crimes, etc. are elsewhere.. "Post-March 2000 guerilla warfare in Chechnya"? "Fighting in Chechnya since April 2000"?

Also, I guess a Dagestan insurgency article would be good, as it predates the official Caucasian Front for a long time. --HanzoHattori 22:33, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] I seriously can't understand you, KK

What is the evil "press language"? Where is the rule to "rmv [it] altogether"? Do you have allergy on the word "rebels" or something? It's used more than all the others altogether, so I guess you have learn to live with it somehow. Oh, and btw - the Chechens never even called themselves "rebels" (boeviki, mujahideen if radicals), this is how the West christened them (incidentally, this is English-language website). --HanzoHattori 20:43, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

It is not a website, but an ENCYCLOPEDIA! And an international one, not only English. IMO the people that are fighting against Russia are nothing but terrorists and nationalists, but that would not be neutral now would it? I don't like the term rebel, and I do not thing you will be comfortable with "terrorist" either. Why push an opinion when you can avoid it? Lastly press language is exactly how all of the events were written, cut and pastes from newspapers, the article needs a clean up and it needs one urgently. --Kuban Cossack 22:40, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] References

What sense is with a references stating "22" or "[23]"? --HanzoHattori 22:17, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
