  • 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.)

Viktor Kobzystyi - famous baseball player?

Recently some news sources claimed that "A famous Ukrainian basketball player, Viktor Kobzystyi, has been killed in a Russian missile attack on Lviv on 29 December." (CNN and others). Is he the same person as Oleksandr Viktorovich Kobzystyi (no uk wiki interwiki)? If not, does he have a uk wiki article that we could translate?

basketball and baseball are two different sports. But the CNN article says the basketball player played twice in the Euros and has become a leading coach... The article is about a 20 year old player in the junior leagues... doubtful it is the same person. The father, who doesnt seem to have an english article .. is likely the person mentioned.

Extra Eyes Please

A new user has been rapidly creating a number of articles with w/o inline citations and performing some odd looking edits like blanking a page they had just created. They are also using random letters for edit summaries. I'm assuming good faith for now, but there is enough that I think a quick look by experienced who are knowledgeable on Ukranian history would be a good idea. Please ping me if any red or yellow flags turn up. Assistance much appreciated. -Ad Orientem (talk) 17:42, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

That users articles are a translation from Ukrainian wikipedia mostly. I linked the other languages pages to those created by him. Ceriy (talk) 19:51, 31 January 2024 (UTC)
@Ceriy Thanks. Much appreciated. -Ad Orientem (talk) 20:07, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

Union of Donbass Volunteers

The Union of Donbass Volunteers article relies largely on cites from InformNapalm which describes itself as a volunteer organization. Is InformNapalm a reliable source regarding Union of Donbass Volunteers? Conversation is underway on the article talk page. Chris Troutman (talk) 22:04, 14 February 2024 (UTC)
