Tips
  • Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
  • It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
  • If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
  • Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
  • When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
  • If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
  • Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Happy editing! Cheers, Timothytyy (talk) 12:30, 6 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I see you've added {{Unreferenced section}} tags throughout. Even if technically correct, it strikes me that this really isn't necessary: the existing {{more footnotes}} tag already covers the entire article, while making the additional point that there are sources included, just not footnoted. To reduce clutter in what is quite a short article I'm therefore inclined to remove the section tags again, but wanted first to explain why I was doing so.

No worries, that makes sense. Thanks for letting me know. BarleyButt (talk) 17:58, 14 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Please be aware of the following consensus: WP:KIEV/WP:KYIV. Thanks. Mellk (talk) 22:17, 17 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. I do not see how my edits are against consensus: this is not unambiguously historical in the same way that the Kiev Offensive or Kievan Rus' are, but I don't feel strongly enough to discuss this at length on the article page. BarleyButt (talk) 22:23, 17 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Please check the following rule of thumb for determining what is current or historical which is 1991/95. Mellk (talk) 22:28, 17 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
