Merge Proposal

It doesn't seem that the flag needs an entire article by itself. Merging that info into this article would probably suffice. Fightindaman 23:52, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

Flags of the States of the US get their own articles. Why not these places in Russia?--Fox Mccloud 01:31, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

I was unaware that Every US state flag had its own article. Frankly, it seems a bit unneccessary to me. Fightindaman 01:49, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

Do you propose to delete all the flag articles? Should we keep national flag articles, or should we get rid of them too?--Fox Mccloud 01:52, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

I am against this merge. That said, the flag article definitely needs to be expanded.—Ëzhiki (ërinacëus amurënsis) 01:55, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

I don't really think a brief explanation of a flag's significance merits an entire aricle, but seeing as it is pretty commonplace, even for state flags, then I guess this one should stay. Fightindaman 01:57, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

This is wikipedia. People who know more about this subject will add to it.--Fox Mccloud 01:58, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

Suwars (Suaslans) and Kuruk-Maris (Mountain / Hill Maris)

The Finnish history (without any later added Russian influence) of Marinmaa (Mariland), in addition to many locally made researchs in the area before 1915, gives a totally different picture of the history of the peoples, including also Tshuvassis, in the Volga bend. It has always been pointed out that the common relations between Suaslans and Kuruk-Maris have always been very close ones. The Kuruk-Maris call Suwars as Suaslan Maris. There is still a former centre of Kuruk-Maris in Tshuvassia, Mari-ola (Mari Town), now Russificated to Marinskij Posad. Many village and river names even today are of Mari origin like Riksa, Tshiga, Sholma, Shatma, Sorma, Sirma, and Sundir. The ancient Tatar name Su-war means "water people" not "mountain people". The Mari word "kuruk" means mountain or hill.

I cannot understand, if the Suwar tribe did not want to adopt Muslim faith, they must have been moved out from Itil Bolgharia after 922 to live with the pag-a-nak (pakana) Maris and Merdis, how they adopted Orthodox Christianity instead of Musulmanni (Russian Busurman) faith. The Russian become as conquers to Volga bend only to also stay there in 1551-1552. The only Muscovite fortress and trading place after conquering the Erzya Obran Osh in 1220, (see Ashli) which become next year Nizhnij Novgorod (Lower Newtown) was the conquering the ancient Kuruk Mari trading place Shurdeng (Mouth of Sura) on the confluence of Rava and Sura which was renamed to Vasilsursk. This general Russian claim, adopted only during the Stalin period after 1931, how the Russians bought civilization and culture for the other people is only big false created history. When one looks back the Russian education system up to 1917, (in 1923 43 per cent of men and 67 per cent of women could not read of write) which simply could not even offer eduacation for the Russians themselves, how it could have given education for the others? Also talks of the common friendly relations between Russian and the minority peoples can be forget. Why all joined the Stenka Razin and Emilyan Pugachev (Jemiljan Pugatshev) uprisings against to Russian rule, and later during the Russian Civil War Period to Idel Ural Movement, if the "eternal destiny relation" was so good?

This pharse "(eternal) destiny relation" has been only recently created in Moscow (after 1931) and many local historians, who have been educated during the Soviet era without access to other older sources, have unfortunately adopted it as a fact. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.112.94.81 (talk) 19:59, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

Move discussion in progress

There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:Republic of Adygea which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RM bot 11:00, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

Newspapers in the Chuvash Republic

I have redirected the above article here. I would have merged some of its contents but I found it very difficult to make heads or tails of it. I think a media section here covering the major news sources for the area would be useful. What was there is visible in that article's history if it's useful.

Article title

Shouldn't this article be moved to Chuvash Republic? The entire structure is under Category:Chuvash Republic. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 06:56, 18 February 2015 (UTC)

That's what I've been proposing for years (both names are correct, but the for the majority of the federal subjects of Russia fully qualified names are used, with (some of) the republics being the only exception, on dubious "common name" grounds). The current titele of the article is per this RM outcome (and whoever was in charge of closing it apparently didn't find time to align the category structures). If you think the "Chuvash Republic" schema is a better choice, you are welcome to file another RM. I'll certainly support it. Cheers,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); February 18, 2015; 13:20 (UTC)

Ok, I'm proposing the renaming the categories then at Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2015_February_22#Category:Republic_of_Adygea. -- Ricky81682 (talk) 05:40, 22 February 2015 (UTC)

I was suggesting the other way round :) That'd be more consistent with the oblasts and krai; note also the Republic of Karelia and the Sakha Republic.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); February 23, 2015; 13:15 (UTC)

Two thousand rivers??

That seems hard to believe ... what definition of river are we using here? —Soap— 18:07, 3 April 2018 (UTC)

This includes streams, of course, and the vast majority of the 2000+ count are short ones (under 10 kilometers (6.2 mi) in length).—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); April 12, 2018; 14:35 (UTC)
