[edit] Grigorenko or Hryhorenko
I reverted the move of Grigorenko to Hryhorenko as per follows. Yes, he IS an ethnic Ukrainian and be him a modern politician of Ukraine or smth like this, he would have certainly be called Hryhorenko in English, like we are using Ukrainian spellings for Volodymyr Lytvyn, Petro Poroshenko, Oleksandr Moroz, etc.
Hryhorenko, however, entered the world news long time ago and, justly or not, he is called Grigorenko by the world media. You can conduct a google test and see the difference in usage. Our job, at encyclopedia, is not to "promote" the "correct" usage but to reflect the prevailing usage and the prevailing usage is determined by the English language media. Before moving the articles, please propose the move first and wait a little bit for responses in the future? Thanks! --Irpen 17:37, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Errors
Moscow Helsinki Group was created in 1976 - so the words "in 1960s Grigorenko became a member of the Moscow Helsinki Watch Group" are wrong —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nr10232 (talk • contribs) 20:57, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
