[edit] Birth & death dates

Does anyone know whether these dates are Gregorian or Old Style? I suspect the latter. -- Jmabel | Talk 23:23, Apr 23, 2005 (UTC)

It's Gregorian, as it needs to be. The Russian text I translated it from also had the Old Style date, but I took the Gregorian dates. Solver 19:29, 24 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Copyright status probably OK

Comment moved from Wikipedia:Pages needing translation into English:

  • Translation done. Note that although the text is rewritten from a book, it does NOT constitute a copyvio because there was no copyright law at that time in the USSR, and the text is available as public domain. I've removed the Russian text from the Talk page as well. Solver 15:13, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)
