Pages needing the most work
I thought that we should make a list of pages that need more work than others. What does anyone else think? Eurohistbuff 16:04, 8 March 2007
Categories
The existing categories used to tag Russian history content are a bit of a mess. I (MP) suggest we begin our work by simply collecting what's out there in Wikispace and tagging it with the "History of Russia" category. See task one below. That will give us a good impression of what sorts of category hierarchies (temporal, geographic, national) are currently being employed. Once we are done with that, we can rationalize existing categories, e.g.,
- History of the East Slavs
- History of Russia
- East Slavic Migrations to Rus'
- (etc.)
- Kievan Rus'
- Foundation of Rus'
- East Slavic Migrations to Rus'
- History of Russia
History of the Soviet Union
Yikes! What the heck happened to History of the Soviet Union? Wikipedia does not have such a thing as "a single article consisting of four pages". I have eliminated the misleading and broken fake TOC on that article. I strongly suggest that someone move this one to History of the Soviet Union up to 1927 and rebuild an actual summary article about the entire history of the Soviet Union (covering at least the years 1922 to 1981). —Michael Z. 2007-07-21 19:16 Z
"Anglo-Russian" or "Russo-British"
I'm about to stub up the Convention of 1839, the Stikine dispute settlement and Alaska Panhandle lease by the HBC, and I'm uncertain as to whether there's a convention on British-Russian combination/hyphenized form; I tend to go with Russo-British but I've seen Anglo-Russian also; is there a preference? I've sween the Adams-Onis Treaty as the "Russo-American Treaty" also....
- No answer, so I'm going to go with "Anglo-Russian" which is used in most sources I've seen so far.Skookum1 (talk) 15:52, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
Governors of Russian America, bios needed
There is a listing of Governors of the Russian-American Company on the company page, with half a dozen or so in need of bio articles; my intention is to write more of a paragraph on the governors and migrate the list to its own list-page, and also to create a Category:Governors of Russian America category, but it would help to have the missing bios made, if someone here would care to indulge; also some of the existing articles, like Furuhjelm's, need references; even Russian-language ones would do.
