Hmmm, so the entire article is about the opera, but the poem is mentioned in the head matter. This should really be moved to "(opera)".

I agree, this should be "Ruslan and Lyudmila (opera)". I think this article may have originally been about the poem as I found several links that seemed to indicate that. I just created a separate article for the (poem) but am something of a newbie at this and not certain how to go about renaming this to (opera) and making sure the existing links don't break.

OK, I moved the page to (opera), changed all the redirect pages to avoid double redirects, and changed all the links I could find that referred to the poem to link to the (poem) article. Gr8white 06:47, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Consistency in naming?

Someone changed my Ruslan and Lyudmila (poem) article to "Ludmila" - which is OK but I originally chose Lyudmila to be consistent with this article. I notice it still uses Lyudmila. Seems to me one or the other should be changed to be consistent. Gr8white 16:23, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
