== Merging articles on governorates in Ukraine ==

Proposing a merge of the following governorate (huberniia) articles.

* ] (1913–1918)&nbsp;→ ] (1918–1920)
* ]&nbsp;→ ] (1802–1925)
* ]&nbsp;→ ]

Having these as separate articles is just confusing for the reader and inconsistent. Other Ukrainian governorate articles span long periods and several states (e.g., Russian Empire, Ukrainian People’s Republic, Ukrainian State, Ukrainian SSR, and Soviet Union), and ] (1764–1783, 1796–1802) covers a 13-year break in its existence. The latter two subjects are each treated under a single article in the Encyclopedia of Ukraine and its online version, for example (while Kholm gubernia is mentioned but has no article).

For comparison, other Ukrainian governorates under the Russian empire were ] (1802–1925), ] (1802–1925), ] (1835–1925), ] (1803–1920), ] (1802–1925), ] (1793–1925), ] (1802–1925), ] (1795–1925), as well as part of ] (1802–1921) existing from the late eighteenth or early nineteenth centuries, and later were added ] (1919–1925), ] (1920–1922), ] (1920–1925), and ] (1920–1922) governorates. &nbsp;—'']&nbsp;].'' 21:25, 6 August 2023 (UTC) <small>Added dates.&nbsp;—'']&nbsp;].'' 15:46, 7 August 2023 (UTC)</small>

If you mean states, then most those Ukrainian governorate articles belonged to five states and the implications are severe fragmentation of these subjects, some of which as yet have very little encyclopedic content. &nbsp;—'']&nbsp;].'' 16:24, 7 August 2023 (UTC)

There is an edit war and accompanying discussion at ] regarding whether Bortkiewicz should be described in the lead as Russian, Ukrainian, or possibly a compromise solution.

On ] there is an important discussion concerning the categorization of people living in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, as well as the shape of the category tree concerning people of Polish nationality.

Back in February, there was a consensus established to not include occupied status of Ukrainian settlements in the infobox. See ].


== ] ==
This decision was made after some editors had been adding things like “Country: Ukraine (de jure), Russia (de facto)” or otherwise messing with the infobox fields that are meant to show the country-province-district (specifically country-oblast-raion) hierarchy that contains a settlement.


Is anyone able to rescue this? ] (]) 00:01, 7 December 2024 (UTC)
The proposal by @] then was to make a decision and apply it to “clear cut cases,” and not to articles on settlements in Crimea, because they were “really administered by Russia.”


== Requested move at ] ==
But the Crimea distinction was not a real one, and if it weren’t so clear in the past, it is more obvious now. Russia has “annexed” not only Crimea, but also the four other regions where it occupies cities, towns, and villages: in the Donetsk, Kherson, Luhansk, and Zaporizhzhia oblasts. At the same time, the Crimean peninsula has become more clearly part of the war zone, as Russian military targets there are hit by Ukrainian artillery, missiles, and drones. More importantly, there’s no reason in any guidelines or consensus to treat Russian occupation in Crimea as special.

== ] ==
We should either A) apply this decision uniformly throughout the occupied territories of Ukraine, and remove occupied status from inboxes, while ensuring that it is properly covered in article text; or B) decide to hold another RFC to rescind the decision, figure out a scheme for representing occupied status throughout settlement infoboxes (in Ukraine and more broadly), and resolve to update it as localities are occupied and liberated in Ukraine. &nbsp;—'']&nbsp;].'' 03:28, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
