[edit] Russian name?

What is his name in Russian? --Jtir 13:48, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Иссак Моисеевич Яглом [1] --Jtir 17:26, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] name of the article

I started the article as Isaak M. Yaglom and created a redirect from Isaak Yaglom. --Jtir 17:35, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

There is no "middle initial" in names from Russian language. Also there is no another Isaak Yaglom in wikipedia. So I am renaming the article, per naming traditions here. `'юзырь:mikka 17:44, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for pointing this out. I will reverse the edits where I inserted the middle initial. --Jtir 17:49, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Done. --Jtir 18:13, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] developing the article

I believe there is enough material to develop the article further, but I don't have access to the English obit, and am not qualified to translate the Russian obit. --Jtir 18:25, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

[Copied from User talk:Jtir] --Jtir 21:44, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

All the biographical information I used is from the Russian Mathematical Surveys v.44 obituary listed in the references. Rgdboer 22:27, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. I have added <ref> tags citing Boltyanskii, et al. I added an introductory sentence to the Institutes and titles section to have a place to hang the <ref> tag there. --Jtir 22:07, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
