Requested move 14 March 2018

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: consensus to move the page, per the discussion below. Dekimasuよ! 20:36, 20 March 2018 (UTC)


Russian collaborationism with the Axis powers → Russian collaboration with Nazi Germany – There was no collaboration with Italy, and this article doesn't discuss Japan at all. Let's make it more precise, just like for example pages on Luxembourgish collaboration with Nazi Germany. (In either case, grammar change by removing -ism is needed too). Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:49, 14 March 2018 (UTC)

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

What is the subject?

Does the page describe Soviet collaboration or exclusively Russian?Xx236 (talk) 08:49, 12 April 2018 (UTC)

Russian collaboration with Nazi Germany → Collaboration in German-occupied Soviet Union – Only logical, since the first sentence of the article says "Soviet citizens", and titles need to reflect accurately the content of the article. 198.84.253.202 (talk) 01:06, 15 April 2018 (UTC)

Other SSRs have their own articles on this topic: see Ukrainian collaboration with Nazi Germany. To move this to "Soviet" would envelop those articles. Dekimasuよ! 01:21, 15 April 2018 (UTC)
Well, then this article needs to be rewritten (because it is confusing, making much more mention of collaboration in the Soviet Union - only the specific examples are purely "Russian"), and possibly, a proper overreaching article needs to be created (if we don't settle on moving this one and expanding it). 198.84.253.202 (talk) 01:39, 15 April 2018 (UTC)
Except that countries like Luxembourg, France, Poland, etc, were actually independent entities, and not geographic divisions of a larger country (in this case, the Soviet Union). Therefore, we should, like with other countries, have an article about collaboration in the whole of the Soviet Union. Anyway, the article in it's current state is more about Soviet collaboration than it is about collaboration within the Russian SSR. 198.84.253.202 (talk) 00:54, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic and its successor, Russian Federation, the world's largest nation, by territory, has been the home to a great variety of ethnic groups. If a single Misplaced Pages article attempted to present a relatively detailed account combining the experience of Russia's diverse populations with that of Ukraine, Belorussia, Moldavia and any other republic applicable to this subject, it would most likely need to be subdivided into article forks anyway, in the same manner as is done within the all-inclusive article, Collaboration with the Axis Powers.    Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 02:01, 16 April 2018 (UTC)
