[edit] Development of Moscow

His role in the development of Moscow is not hilighted.--Nixer 12:09, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sentence makes no sense

"E.g. he pressed the Northern Caucasian leadership to completely deport the entire populations of three Kuban stanitsas: Poltavskaya, Medvedkovskaya, and Urupskaya (45 thousand people in total)."

Huh? What does the N.C. leadership have to do with deportations our of the Ukraine? - crz crztalk 22:55, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
That is strange. Is it referenced? If not, maybe it should be amended or someone should research it more thoroughly. TheQuandry 23:40, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mikhail's suicide

"On June 1, 1941 after a phone call from Lazar, Mikhail committed suicide."

What is implied here? That Lazar is somehow responsible? This should either be clarified or amended to remove the phone call - crz crztalk 22:59, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
Done. TheQuandry 23:40, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

Agreed. According to Montefiore's well-researched book, Mikhail actually committed suicide during a meeting with some of Stalin's henchmen when his fate became clear. Lazar was a degenerate but didn't want his brother to perish. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.108.14.151 (talk) 09:58, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
