Birthday Cake

This article implies that she died of poisoning from a birthday cake Stalin sent her, but there is no source for this claim. I say the claim should be removed unless sourced.--FDR (talk) 09:02, 28 December 2008 (UTC)

Lenin (Ulyanov) is described as "a devout Marxist." I understand the intent, but in most usages, devout means "devoted to religion or to religious duties or exercises ... expressing devotion or piety" (Merriam-Webster online). How about "convinced" or even "fanatical"? Sca (talk) 15:21, 23 February 2009 (UTC) POOP & cHeEz
