| ==Metro stations== | |||
| As far as I remember, I promised to never touch spelling of metro stations until ] comes through, unless vandalism is involved. I still stand by that (even though WP:CYR is stagnant), but thought I'd ask you this. As you might have probably noticed, I am currently putting Russian geographic names in order, creating redirects and dab pages when necessary. So far my scope was limited to names of inhabited localities, districts, and federal subjects (which, mind you, is quite a handful already), with an occasional river or mountain thrown in. I am wondering if you'd mind me incorporating names of Russian metro stations into the mix. Many of them have quite generic names, shared by other geographic entities. Adding them to dab pages would make them a tad easier to find, which is a definite plus. The downside for you, I assume, is that I rely on WP:RUS heavily, because spelling consistency in such an enormous project is an absolute must, and there is nothing better that WP:RUS available at this point of time. So, if that's going to be a problem, then just ignore my offer—I'm planning to resume working on WP:CYR ''eventually'' (even if that means ''after the hell freezes over''), and there is no urgency in this for me. On the other side, if you agree, I'd appreciate a list (or a link to a list) of all Russian metro stations by city, as well as a blank check (or an ] :)) for moving/renaming articles to make them fit into existing scheme. Let me know what you think. Best,—] • (]); 20:00, 5 January 2007 (UTC) | |||

| ::Thanks, I much appreciate it. The question I have is whether the station lists in Misplaced Pages are complete as to be sufficient for this project. I guess Moscow is, but what about other cities? If anything is missing, can you help me locate full lists? I also think that former names of renamed stations could be included as well—would you have that information? I don't think I'll need help with boring routine stuff (you seem to be one of very few people who could write actual content in that area, so your time would be better spent there), but I might bug you every now and then if I encounter problematic cases.

| ::Good, that'll be useful, although my intention is to not only disambiguate between the stations with the same name, but also between the stations and other entities with the same name. As for "-skaya", I was under impression that's how all stations are already done. Are there ones which are done differently? I wouldn't add disambiguators to the names unless it's necessary, because that's what most naming conventions (with the notable exception of US cities) recommend.—] • (]); 20:50, 5 January 2007 (UTC) | |||

| ::::An abundance of identical names doesn't really scare me; see ] to see what I mean :) Anyway, just wanted to clarify that I intend to limit my activities with Russian stations only. It's kind of hard to do them together with Ukrainian/etc. because it is difficult to organize the workflow efficiently due to different romanization standards of other Slavic languages.

| Thanks everyone! I am contemplating on doing so, but then again it took an arbcom to get me off this ''narcotic''! In fact the reason I did not really participate and allowed myself to be banned, was partly because wiki was consuming so much time, that it left little for family life. Since then some very good things happened, my fourth born is now running around, and its been confirmed by beloved Olga is expecting yet another pair, to hatch sometime in summer (and it will be quits after six!!!). Business has been good, a small car restoration workshop that was originally but a family business, has now blossomed into a proper dealership, selling polished re-built Volgas, Mokvitches, Chaikas..., employing more than three dozen fellow stanichniki. Service has been alright, though I have now largely retracted into teaching Ju-jitsu (earned my 5th Dan last year!) to both Cossacks and anyone wishing to master this amazing martial arts. So don't expect a tempered Cossack! That said I will have to teach myself not to react to things like , and instead focus on creating an ] for our cars. Dima what do you think?

I hardly know anything about metro, except that it exists in some cities and that I have some limited experience riding it :) My interest in this is merely in paving the road for others by fixing the system of Russian names/disambiguation pages/redirects so that one entity may easily be distinguished from another entity of the same name, and that entities of similar (but not identical) names are properly interlinked and cross-referenced.

| This doesn't seem good to me. Even the PA for each station in the Minsk metro is officially bi-lingual, Belarusian on departure, Russian on arrival (or is it other way round?).

| :I did not mind you moving stations into disambigs, but what you are doing is changing the whole naming format. For example if some have (Nizhny Novgorod Metro), then why not let others have that for consistency? Same with all of the others. Like I said, my ultimate achival is to have all Moscow Metro stations retitled to -skaya (Moscow Metro). <!--Also check my contribs and read the AN/I statement. И пожалуста на сей раз по смелее прошу вести.-->--] 13:40, 5 February 2007 (UTC) | |||
| ::Because this is not how naming conventions in Misplaced Pages work. We do not pre-disambiguate names. Hence, "Burnakskaya" is sufficient, because there is nothing else by this name; "Burevestnik (Metro)" is sufficient, because there is no other metro station by this name (but there is something else); and "Akademicheskaya (Saint Petersburg Metro)" is necessary because there is a station by this name in Moscow as well. Plus, speaking of consistency, if you pre-disambiguate NN, but not Moscow/St. Petersburg/etc., then where is that said consistency? We don't even have articles for NN/Kazan/etc., so fixing the names early is not only easy, but will ultimately save time later. In case you haven't noticed, I don't just "move the stations to disambigs"; I make a very good effort to make sure all the backlinks point where they should, all redirects work as intended, all disambiguation pages are properly formatted. Not to mention some disambiguation-unrelated cleanup I just can't resist not to take care of. Then come you and with one sweep of a revert undo most of the work, wreaking havoc in all the dependencies. | |||
| ::Anyway, like I said, if you don't want my help, just let me know. I have plenty of other things to do besides metro.—] • (]); 14:17, 5 February 2007 (UTC) | |||
| :::Which is why I want to move all of the articles in the Moscow and Piter Metros to this standard. I agree there is yet to be consistency, but with redirects and disambigs it will work (see my hidden comment in the first respose)!--] 14:22, 5 February 2007 (UTC) | |||
| ::::One thing is I still don't understand is why would you want to move a vast number of articles which perfectly comply with Misplaced Pages naming conventions to a naming scheme that is both redundant and non-standard. If you are worried about things to be difficult to find, that's the very reason why I volunteered to help and interlink everything properly. It does take a while, but if you just be patient, all metro stations will fit the grand scheme of things flawlessly. | |||
| ::::The only other major area of Misplaced Pages that is currently using pre-disambiguation is the U.S. cities, but even that is a) because the articles were originally uploaded by a bot; b) it was long ago when naming conventions did not yet develop; c) it is traditional for the U.S. cities to be called with the state disambiguator attached; d) even with all that in mind the necessity of the pre-disambiguation naming scheme is constantly being a subject of hot debates. FSU Metros, on the other hand a) are, for the most part, already named properly; b) do comply with the naming conventions; and c) have stations which are not usually called "a station of Fooysk Metro", but just "a station". Just look at the two sides: doesn't it seem to you that if you proceed with your Moscow (and other metros) moving plan, it'd just be nothing more than "мартышкин труд". I offered to help you because I know how to fix existing (not very numerous) inconsistencies with the stations' names, have vast experience in this kind of work, and believe that it would free your time to actually write content (great job with the Kazan Metro, by the way). From your statements above, however, you seem more interested in wasting time on moving stations around istead of doing something that few other people can do (i.e., write about them). | |||
| ::::Either way, have it your way. Just don't count on my help if you are going to do something that is completely useless, non-compliant with the guidelines, and cannot be interlinked well with other areas of Misplaced Pages.

| Hello! As there is already '''an only proposed Misplaced Pages guideline''' on naming conventions (Cyrillic). The proposal is still in development, under discussion and needs of gathering consensus for adoption. Since I am well experienced on this subject, I would like to criticize the official transliteration of Bulgarian as it gives too many errors, which also causes some losses of sounds “ǎ (a hacek”), decentralise itself from other slavic languages (“c” and “š” voices), which is also conflicting in itself (see street signs and ).

Should I return?
Should I? Anyone care to bring me up to date on what I missed? --Kuban Cossack (По-балакаем?) 23:25, 19 February 2012 (UTC)
- Good to see you back in here!.. I've took a long break as well last year, but got bored of that and returned lol.. Nothing new, WP:SOVMETRO was closed down because no one was participating, but aside from that would be great to have some help in writing articles like we all used to. --ddima (talk) 04:33, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
- Btw, I re-wrote the Kharkiv Metro line articles some time ago and brought them up to a presentable state with lots of text. If you have anything to add it would be great. --ddima (talk) 04:39, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
- Of course you should return. We're all waiting for you impatiently:) Ukrained (talk) 14:33, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
- Same here—of course you should return. You know WP:RUSSIA can use all the help it can get, and so does WP:UKRAINE.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); February 20, 2012; 14:37 (UTC)
- Please return. Need your help with re-working and updating the Decossackization page. Some people keep removing all the references on the number of deaths there. It would be great to also create a new page on Holodomor in Cossack territories.ViktorC (talk) 03:43, 21 March 2012 (UTC)
- Vitya, Zdrastvuy! I wish to help you. I know I can help you. But I will not. Written below is a self-explanatory passage for the reason of my decision. In my userspace you are more than welcome to come to me for council and references, as well as opinions and recommendations. However I will not touch main article space on any topic that involves history and a potential political srach. For the foreseeable future, I will remain loyal to those terms. I've just cleaned my watchlist from any articles that are outside of my intended scope of work, which is to be purely technical transportation-related. --Kuban Cossack (По-балакаем?) 12:01, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
Thanks everyone! I am contemplating on doing so, but then again it took an arbcom to get me off this narcotic! In fact the reason I did not really participate and allowed myself to be banned, was partly because wiki was consuming so much time, that it left little for family life. Since then some very good things happened, my fourth born is now running around, and its been confirmed by beloved Olga is expecting yet another pair, to hatch sometime in summer (and it will be quits after six!!!). Business has been good, a small car restoration workshop that was originally but a family business, has now blossomed into a proper dealership, selling polished re-built Volgas, Mokvitches, Chaikas..., employing more than three dozen fellow stanichniki. Service has been alright, though I have now largely retracted into teaching Ju-jitsu (earned my 5th Dan last year!) to both Cossacks and anyone wishing to master this amazing martial arts. So don't expect a tempered Cossack! That said I will have to teach myself not to react to things like this, and instead focus on creating an equivalent for our cars. Dima what do you think? How familiar are you with this topic? --Kuban Cossack (По-балакаем?) 20:08, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
- That's good to hear! Not really familiar with that topic though... but truthfully speaking I wasn't familiar with any of the topics I write about when I came to Wiki... It's a good topic, I'm sure I have some pictures of my mom's Moskvitch 407 that I could add into the articles :) --ddima (talk) 23:48, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
- 407-y? Hope its still going! My Granddad has his Pobeda since 1954! That beast is still on the run, and he still drives it! --Kuban Cossack (По-балакаем?) 12:01, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
Decision
Ok gentlemen, I have decided to make a limited come-back. With a self-imposed topic ban on historical topic, particularly sensitive-topics where most of srach can occur. In fact see my reply to user User:ViktorC above. As for the rest, Ostorozhno Dveri Zakryvautsia. )) --Kuban Cossack (По-балакаем?) 12:01, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
- Does this mean we'll finally see the metro articles cleaned up, brought up to snuff, and made into FAs? :) —Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); March 30, 2012; 12:10 (UTC)

File:Name.ext listed for discussion
Invitation to discuss on Misplaced Pages:Naming conventions (Cyrillic)
Hello! As there is already an only proposed Misplaced Pages guideline on naming conventions (Cyrillic). The proposal is still in development, under discussion and needs of gathering consensus for adoption. Since I am well experienced on this subject, I would like to criticize the official transliteration of Bulgarian as it gives too many errors, which also causes some losses of sounds “ǎ (a hacek”), decentralise itself from other slavic languages (“c” and “š” voices), which is also conflicting in itself (see street signs 1 and 2). By this revision, it is away from being accurate and not able to satisfy the needs of an encyclopedia which claims to be scientifical. These are the reasons I invite you to read Scientific transliteration of Cyrillic and involve the discussion in order to contribute a possible concensus. Wish to see you here thanks Manaviko (talk) 13:20, 5 April 2016 (UTC)
