How does one pronounce that?—Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.195.142.56 (talk) 18:01, 9 June 2005 (UTC)Reply

Prodrazvyorstka or Prodrazverstka? It says the latter in my history book! It probably doesn't matter too much, but I'll put a redirect to Prodrazvyorstka from Prodrazverstka anyway (try saying that sentence!)TDE 20:29, 3 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

We pronounce it "prod-ruz-vyór-stkah". (sorry, I don't know how to write it correctly in English).
In russian there is letter Ё (yo), but in this case it's pronounced like that vowel in "girl". That's why it should be transcripted this way. The second variant would have been used if there were "Е" (pronounced like yeah). Ъыь 18:11, 1 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

Towards the end of the article, it is stated "Moreover, it did much damage to the agricultural sector and caused peasant's growing discontent. As the government switched to NEP, prodrazvyorstka was exchanged for prodnalog (food tax) by the decree of the 10th Congress of the Russian Communist Party (Bolsheviks) in March 1921." yet gives no details as to how and why this happened and provides no citations for this information. Also, it should be "peasants'", not "peasant's", unless it's referring to a single, un-named peasant. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.245.234.249 (talk) 18:16, 28 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

Merge discussion edit

I suggest to merge Lenin's hangin order here for better background. Historical documents such as this are to be considered in context of historical realities at that time to avoid misinterpretations. (Igny (talk) 02:33, 24 July 2010 (UTC))Reply

Terminology edit

I'll be honest, I really don't know how to edit anything on Wikipedia. But if someone does, could they include a re-direct from the term Razverstka, as that seems to be a more common English term for the Russian translation? Maybe even re-naming the article, since it seems that most modern English scholarship on the subject uses that term? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.97.120.33 (talk) 03:03, 29 March 2011 (UTC)Reply
