Ukraine Project‑class

This page is within the scope of WikiProject Ukraine, a collaborative effort to improve the coverage of Ukraine on Misplaced Pages. If you would like to participate, please visit the project page, where you can join the discussion and see a list of open tasks.UkraineWikipedia:WikiProject UkraineTemplate:WikiProject UkraineUkraine Project This page does not require a rating on Misplaced Pages's content assessment scale.

This WikiProject has been mentioned by a media organization: Annie Rauwerda (21 October 2022). "Russian Oligarchs Keep Dying in Suspicious Ways. Misplaced Pages Is Keeping a List". Slate (magazine). English-language Misplaced Pages is documenting the crisis, too: Fifty-eight editors have joined the English-language WikiProject Ukraine group, and thousands of others are contributing to their projects. They've tallied the journalists killed in Russia, built a thorough daily timeline, and debated whether the mass graves in the Ukrainian city of Izium should be called a "massacre." (After a few days and 8,000 words, they reached no consensus.)

The role of Belarus in the Russo-Ukrainian War since 24 February 2022

Hello, I invite you, Ukrainians, to express your opinion in a recently started WP:RFC (see it directly here: Talk:Russo-Ukrainian War#RFC on Listing of Belarus) about the role of Belarus in the Russo-Ukrainian War since 24 February 2022 and how it should be described in this article. By knowing how devastating and painful this war is for you, Ukrainians, I simply had to inform WikiProject Ukraine because your opinions are crucial in topics related with this war.

Art critic, poet, writer

Igor Bondar, (Ігор Бондар-Терещенко). There is an article about him at Ukrainian wiki. (And an article (stub) that I translated to English, is now at Simple-English wikipedia (https://simple.wikipedia.org/Igor_Bondar), and being discussed at Articles for Deletion, there.)--Does the information in the Ukrainian article, state wiki-notability in a way that could seem relevant for an English-wiki article? Regards! 2001:2020:345:BB19:4066:C097:7078:B2FA (talk) 16:30, 27 March 2024 (UTC)

Mykhailo Hrushevsky

An IP seems to have slanted, if not vandalized, the Mykhailo Hrushevsky article with a very strong anti-ukrainian POV a few weeks ago without it being noticed it seems (adding "fictional" to descriptions of his historical writing for instance). As there have been other seemingly useful revisions since then I haven't reverted, haven't edited on en.wiki in a long while so not sure what to do, hope someone here can help. Thanks!

Reverted it along with other questionable edits they had made, put the article on your watch list if you care, since evidently there is not much attention if fairly obvious POV pushing gets through. TylerBurden (talk) 19:24, 5 April 2024 (UTC)

Good article reassessment for Mezhyhirya Monastery

New settlement type

So I've initially raised this concern in the Krasna Hora talk page, but I guess this is a more appropriate place to ask about it as it potentially impacts hundreds of articles. I've just checked a similar discussion from 30 November 2023 and the classification changes still seemed inconclusive back then (no change in practice). Therefore, I'll quote my original concern:

@Ykvach: Do you have proof/evidence that Krasna Hora would now be considered a "rural settlement" and not a "village"? Because from what I understood from the new, late 2023, law is that a settlement with less than 5k people would become a village. By the way, did any specific change even become official? Because it's one thing to approve a new principle, it's another to implement it in reality. We should at least have a total number of villages and rural settlements under this new classification. Otherwise this would seem like WP:OR, sadly.

Alternativelly, is it too early to make such massive changes throughout Misplaced Pages? Alexis Coutinho (talk) 21:21, 28 April 2024 (UTC)

Nomination of List of Americans killed during the Russian invasion of Ukraine for deletion

The article will be discussed at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/List of Americans killed during the Russian invasion of Ukraine until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
