Just as a side note, I thought I should warn you that I might be in hospital for part of the coming week and I'm not sure what Internet access I'll have. So if I disappear for a week, please be patient--I'll be back! -- Khazar2 (talk) 15:01, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Extremism trial

• anti-extremism? Link?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 06:13, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
  • No Wikipedia article appears to exist for "anti-extremism"; I'm fine with your adding a red link if you like, though. -- Khazar2 (talk) 18:15, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
    • Wikilink to Federal List of Extremist Materials should cover it. This is a particularly Russian use of the term "extremist" so not sure if linking to the more generic English wiki article on extremism is relevant. MaxBrowne (talk) 23:46, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
      • That would be a good link.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 15:36, 24 December 2012 (UTC)

N What is going on with this link?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 03:21, 27 December 2012 (UTC)

Max added it to the section. -- Khazar2 (talk) 03:50, 27 December 2012 (UTC)

I'll make it clearer in the text what is being wikilinked to. MaxBrowne (talk) 09:57, 27 December 2012 (UTC)

• Is "interested party" a legal term? Does it have a link?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 06:13, 23 December 2012 (UTC)

It's not a legal term that I'm aware of. The original phrasings of the sources are "Earlier, Pazukhina told RAPSI that the court has rejected freed Pussy Riot member Yekaterina Samutsevich's request to be involved in this claim. The reason was that no claim by the prosecutor's office to have the video declared extremist had yet reached the court" and "Samutsevich requested to be involved as a stakeholder to the case, saying that if the video were found extremist, it would be more difficult for the punk group's members to defend themselves at the supervisory instance and in the consideration of their appeal at the European Court of Human Rights." -- Khazar2 (talk) 18:35, 23 December 2012 (UTC)

Does this have something to do with legal standing?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 15:36, 24 December 2012 (UTC)

It seems to be similar, but not quite the same. In the US, I think legal standing only refers to your right to initially file a lawsuit; this seems to be her right to participate in the case. There probably is specific Russian legal language to cover this, but I'm not sure how to find it. -- Khazar2 (talk) 14:38, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

• "Materials declared extremist are blacklisted, making it a criminal offense to disseminate them."
  • Extremist? link?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 06:13, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
    • Added link. -- Khazar2 (talk) 18:35, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
      • See above. MaxBrowne (talk) 23:49, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
  • Blacklisted by who?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 06:13, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
    • Russian justice ministry. Added. -- Khazar2 (talk) 18:35, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
  • Criminal offense in what jurisdiction?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 06:13, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
    • This is not absolutely clear in the source, but strongly implied to be Russia as a whole; it's a national ministry doing the blacklisting, and compared to Chinese Internet censorship. -- Khazar2 (talk) 18:35, 23 December 2012 (UTC)

Public opinion in Russia

• A series of Levada Center polls: clarify when this poll occured in relation to the events (following the trial, following the arrest, after all appeals or whatever).--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 19:08, 23 December 2012 (UTC)

Done. -- Khazar2 (talk) 14:55, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

International support

• Does "British MP" have a link?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 19:16, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
  • Linked. -- Khazar2 (talk) 14:55, 26 December 2012 (UTC)
• Can you merge or expand some of the short paragraphs.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 19:16, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
  • Done. -- Khazar2 (talk) 14:55, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Protests and peripheral events

• The subject of "supported the women's imprisonment" is unclear.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 01:07, 24 December 2012 (UTC)
  • Clarified. -- Khazar2 (talk) 14:55, 26 December 2012 (UTC)
• Merge or expand the "In August, at the Embassy of Russia in Washington, D.C. there was a protest and concert by punk bands." paragraph.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 01:07, 24 December 2012 (UTC)
  • Done. -- Khazar2 (talk) 14:55, 26 December 2012 (UTC)
• is "Tbilisi"? link?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 01:07, 24 December 2012 (UTC)
  • Spelling fixed, linked, country added. -- Khazar2 (talk) 14:55, 26 December 2012 (UTC)
    • Restored "Tbilisi" spelling (Georgian:თბილისი). Clearly the letter "ი" (i) occurs three times in the Georgian spelling. It is also the spelling used in the wiki article and agrees with the unofficial, official and ISO 9984 systems of Romanization of Georgian. It's also used in both of the refs provided, and gets more google hits than "Tblisi". So the evidence looks overwhelming. MaxBrowne (talk) 01:38, 27 December 2012 (UTC)
      • Thanks, Max--my eyes must be going. -- Khazar2 (talk) 02:12, 27 December 2012 (UTC)
