== Has the classification "Rural Settlements" been abolished along with "Urban-type Settlements"? ==

I just learned that Ukraine has recently overhauled their settlement classification scheme, but I can't seem to figure out whether they abolished the classification of "Rural-type Settlement". I've translated a few settlement articles and would like to update them if the classification no longer exists. Also, if they have abolished it, do rural settlements immediately become villages (selos) in January when the law takes effect? <span style="font-family:Copperplate Gothic, Ebrima;background-color:OrangeRed;border-radius:7px;text-shadow:2px 2px 4px#000000;padding:3px 3px;">]</span><sup>]</sup> 05:48, 30 November 2023 (UTC)

:You would naturally assume that, but it seems that the new law simply ignored the existence of rural-type settlements, since there are very few of them. Legally, they were never called "rural-type", they were called simply "settlements" and generally were smaller than "villages". Only "urban-type settlements" always used an adjective in the name. So it seems that the new law did not affect the rural-type settlements and they would stay as "settlements" even though we basically have a corrupted hierarchy now: city > settlement > village > settlement. Maybe, it will get fixed eventually, or maybe not. ] (]) 06:18, 30 November 2023 (UTC)
:The most sure way to check the status of any settlement would be to check with which is a huge excel file listing all administrative units and their types.

== Titles of articles on Ukrainian povits/uezds ==

I intend to clean up the titles of articles and categories on historical ]s (a.k.a. ]s or ]) in Ukraine. This system of subdividing the gubernia (a.k.a. ''huberniia'') was established in the Russian empire (]), and then inherited by the Ukrainian People’s Republic and Soviet Ukraine (]).

The spellings and names are not consistent. There’s no advice in ] and I can’t find any corresponding guideline for Russian-empire or Soviet place names. A number of these have been moved without discussion to a different pattern (e.g., Bakhmutsky Uyezd was moved to ]).

I intend to rename all of these to use consistent spelling with the main article ], for example ]&nbsp;→ ]. This is not controversial and I will proceed without waiting for comments (but feel free).

I am also considering the following questions:

# Do we keep the prevailing capitalization ''Konotopsky Uezd'', or switch to lowercased ''Konotopsky uezd''?
# Do we keep the prevailing native adjectival proper name, like ''Konotopsky Uezd'', or switch to an anglicized version like ''Konotop Uezd'' (after the city of ])?
# Were any of these established in Ukraine after 1917 and should therefore be renamed, e.g., ]&nbsp;→ ]/]?

Any other concerns? Please comment.&nbsp;—'']&nbsp;].'' 16:55, 15 December 2023 (UTC)

:It makes sense to use "uezd" for consistency with the main article name. Regarding the questions:
:1. This probably should be governed by some general English rule. I see that American counties always use the capitalized versions: "]", "]" (also "]"). Is it the same in other English-speaking countries?
:2. I would prefer Konotopsky Uezd because it's closer to the original name. Otherwise, you actually need to do some original research to identify the center and to transform the name accordingly. And what to do when it's not named after the center, like ]? (Also, ] is named after part of the name "Novaya Ushitsa".) Similar examples for other units, like ] and ] frankly sound a bit unnatural to me as a Ukrainian/Russian speaker, and require some extra-thinking to understand what the topic is about.
:3. During Russian Empire times the divisions were very stable, but a lot of changes (incl. creations of new units and deletions of old ones) were happening after 1917. I guess most of uezds listed below were created in Russian Empire times, so probably the Russian name "uezd" can be used for the following reasons:
:: 1) for consistency with all other imperial units existing back then;
:: 2) because in all official documents of that time it would be written in Russian (since Ukrainian language was either prohibited or suppressed during that time);
:: 3) since it would be hard to distinguish Ukrainian from non-Ukrainian units, since Ukraine did not have well-defined boundaries back then.
: However, if some unit was created in ] or one of Ukrainian states (after 1917), then probably the term "povit" might be a better fit, since that's how it would appear in many documents (including most of modern historical research focused on post-1917 Ukraine) and it would be clear that the unit indeed belonged to Ukraine. For older Russian Empire units which continued existence in ], the redirection from povit to uezd can be also used. ] should not however be renamed into Povit, since it was created long before 1917, so most of its existence was in Russian Empire.
: --] (]) 04:36, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
::3. Muscovy and Russian empire reorganized gubernias a number of times.
::1) It’s not all consistent, as there are articles about former imperial counties with Estonian, Latvian, and a Lithuanian names, and I think Polish too. Would have to check Georgia, Armenia, Central Asia, &c. Consistency is the lowest-priority naming ].
::2) See ]. There is no reason to automatically privilege colonial names and deprecate native local names.
::3) Ukrainian ethnolinguistic territory had well defined boundaries, and history books tell us which gubernias or which of their parts were in it. Russia recognized specific Ukrainian boundaries in the 1918 Treaty of Brest-Litovsk. There were specific borders of Soviet Ukraine established soon after, and of course we know what the boundaries of modern Ukraine are.
::There is also the assumption that “most of its existence” is true and significant, but “its most recent name” is not, with no rationale for this. In fact, most examples like ], ], ], ], and ] indicate the opposite. ] privileges most recent names, and local names, unless “a substantial majority of reliable modern sources” do otherwise.
::(Ushitsa county was called ''Ushitskyi/Novoushitskyi povit'' or ''Ushitskii/Novoushitskii uezd''.) &nbsp;—'']&nbsp;].'' 16:16, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
:::My main concern is that some of the articles, like ], cite only a Russian-language source. In such case, it would be probably an OR to translate the name into English ''through Ukrainian'', especially since Ukrainian spelling 100 years ago and now might slightly differ. Such articles should have at least one Ukrainian-language source to justify the Ukrainian name, for example, you could probably use establishing new okruhas and raions to get the correct Ukrainian spellings for the abolished povits. ] (]) 20:57, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
:::If consistency is not an issue, then you can probably decide on a case by case basis depending on the cited sources. ] (]) 20:58, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
::::Of course, but I’d like to do a mass cleanup first. This conversation is just to see what is acceptable. &nbsp;—'']&nbsp;].'' 21:05, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
:::By the way, uezd was sometimes translated into Ukrainian as "уїзд" (uizd). In any case, all uezds/povits can be considered as colonial units, since they were established either by the Russian imperial, or by the Soviet, or by the Polish administration. The only truly native units pre-1991 were "zemlias" that the ] tried to establish in 1918, or polks and sotnias in the ] times. ] (]) 21:04, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
::For modern place names in Ukraine, per ] we use the anglicized form for oblasts (]), raions (]), and hromadas (]), but we transliterate names of urban districts (]). This example shows that the lesser-known uezds don’t necessarily have to be named the same way as the larger gubernias. We do seem to capitalize all of the subdivision types when they appear in names, although many academic sources do not.
::(By the way, the ''official'' Ukrainian Latin-alphabet place names are always transliterated according to the toponymic guidelines: Donetska oblast, Zolochivskyi raion, Avhustynivska rural council, Zavodskyi raion.) &nbsp;—'']&nbsp;].'' 18:48, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
::2. I agree that transliterating the native name is best. Although Dneprovskii/Dniprovskyi can also be reverse-engineered as Dnieper uezd or Dnipro povit, this would be ] (unless it were based on determining the COMMONNAME for each of these hundreds of little-mentioned places). &nbsp;—'']&nbsp;].'' 19:06, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
:I second @]'s point about borders not being clearly defined. Linguistically it's largely a continuum. There are places within the borders of modern Russia whose language is closer to Ukrainian (such as some parts of Voronezh oblast) and vice-versa there are places within the borders of modern Ukraine where Ukrainian has never been the dominant language (e.g, ]). ]<sub>]</sub> 20:16, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
::The ''Historical Dictionary of Ukraine'', 2nd ed., {{ISBN|978-0-8108-7845-7}}, gives a fairly detailed history of the “Administrative Divisions of Ukraine” (pp.&nbsp;11–17). Excerpts:
::* “At the beginning of the 19th century, there were nine gubernias in Ukraine: Kyiv, Poltava, Chernihiv, Kharkiv, Katerynoslav, Kherson, Tavriia, Podilia, and Volhynia.”
::* “The territory of the restored UNR was divided into a Western (Western Province of the UNR) and an Eastern oblast.) The latter consisted of the Kyiv, Kharkiv, Poltava, Chernihiv, Katerynoslav, Kherson, Zhytomyr, Kamianets, and Kholm gubernias.”
::* “In the 1920s, the Ukrainian Socialist Soviet Republic (renamed the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic in 1937) was divided into 12 gubernias (nine gubernias after October 1922): Volhynia, Donetsk, Zaporizhia, Katerynoslav, Kyiv, Kremenchuk, Mykolaiv, Odesa, Podilia, Poltava, Kharkiv, and Chernihiv. In the early 1920s, parts of the Chernihiv, Kursk, and Voronezh gubernias, where Ukrainians constituted an absolute majority, were annexed by Russia.”
::Please give sources about this “linguistic continuum” theory. Imperial demographers Ukrainian ethnolinguistic territory in good detail after the 1897 census. The Bolsheviks actually put some Ukrainian territory in the RSFSR, and not vice-versa. Please explain how this relates to ] or other relevant guidelines. &nbsp;—'']&nbsp;].'' 21:24, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
::] 1996, ''A History of Ukraine'' ({{ISBN|0-8020-0830-5}}):
::* 307: After 1802, “The largest concentration of Ukrainian inhabitants lived in nine provinces. These included, on the territory of the Hetmanate, the provinces of Chernihiv and Poltava. In former Sloboda Ukraine, an imperial province of the same name was established (although without certain territory in the north and northeast) and in 1835 it was renamed the province of Kharkiv. From the former Zaporizhia, which had become part of New Russia after 1775, the provinces of Katerynoslav and Kherson (including lands between the lower Dnieper and Dniester Rivers acquired between 1774 and 1791 from the Ottoman Empire) were created. Of the old Crimean Khanate, both ethnic peninsula and the lowland coastal region between the lower Dnieper River and the Sea of Azov became the province of Taurida. The lands acquired from Poland in 1793 and 1795 became the provinces of Kiev (including the city and surrounding area formerly within the Hetmanate), Volhynia, and Podolia. Together, Kiev, Volhynia, and Podolia provinces were frequently referred to as the Russian Empire’s Southwester Land (Iugo-zapadnyi krai) and will be referred to henceforth as the Right Bank. ¶&nbsp;Besides the nine ‘Ukrainian’ provinces, Ukrainians also inhabited areas in immediately adjacent provinces or regions of the Russian Empire. These included, in the east, parts of the Don Cossack and Black Sea Cossack Lands; in the west, parts of the province of Bessarabia (both the coastal region in the south and the region around Khotyn in the north); and in the northwest, the regions around Brest and Chełm.”
::* 331: “The Ukrainians, who represented nearly three-quarters of the total population, were by far the numerically largest group living in eight of the nine provinces that made up ].”
::* 332: “It was during the nineteenth century, however, that massive immigration of Russians to Dnieper Ukraine took place.”
::* 486–87: “The territory of the Ukrainian state recognized at Brest-Litovsk included not only the nine former imperial provinces previously claimed by the Central Rada (Volhynia, Podolia, Kiev, Chernihiv, Poltava, Kharkiv, Kherson, Katerynoslav, and northern Taurida), but also the former province of Kholm and the southern third of Minsk and Grodno provinces, including the city of Brest-Litovsk itself.”

::* 204: “The process of imposing imperial administrative structures on Ukrainian lands began as early as the 1770s, but it was not until the 1830s that it assumed its final form. At that time, Ukraine was divided into nine provinces (''gubernii''), which could be subdivided informally into three distinct regions: Left-Bank Ukraine, where Cossack and ''starshyna'' traditions were strongest, consisted of Chernihiv, Poltava, and Kharkiv provinces; the recently acquired Right Bank, where Polish nobles still exercised socioeconomic domination over the Ukrainian peasantry and where the towns were populated mainly by Jews, consisted of Kiev, Podilia, and Volhynia provinces; and the newly colonized south, once the domain of the Zaporozhians and the Crimean Khanate, was divided into the provinces of Katerynoslav, Kherson, and Tavria (Crimea). Each of these provinces was further subdivided into counties (''povit''/''uezd''), and these were broken down into townships and villages.”
