This article was nominated for deletion on 7 April 2014 (UTC). The result of the discussion was keep.
Novorossia ruble was nominated for deletion. The discussion was closed on 9 August 2015 with a consensus to merge. Its contents were merged into Donetsk People's Republic. The original page is now a redirect to this page. For the contribution history and old versions of the redirected article, please see its history; for its talk page, see here.
Panam2014, that something is not forbidden doesn't mean that it is advisable. There was a delete discussion that led to merging the article "Head of the Donetsk People's Republic" into this one. One of the arguments was that the subject's notability is dubious. And that's one of the reasons why I think presenting the "Heads" with photographs is WP:UNDUE: It gives too much prominence to those "Heads". The other reason is that while the template looks fine at the end of an article like Head of the Republic of Ingushetia, it looks unesthetic here (at least to my eyes). Returning to status quo, since we didn't reach consensus yet. Rsk6400 (talk) 17:55, 24 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
The result was to merge to this article, and it used a table. Mellk (talk) 17:57, 24 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
The current version has been stable since April 10, that's nearly two and a half months. Rsk6400 (talk) 18:27, 24 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
Yes, but you do not have a veto. Mellk (talk) 18:28, 24 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
Of course not, we have to find a consensus, and for finding a consensus every editor should give their reasons. I didn't see your reasons yet. Rsk6400 (talk) 18:31, 24 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
The table is used to organize the data. Adding a table for undisputed information is useful. Mellk (talk) 18:37, 24 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
I just took a look at both versions: Apart from what I said above, I also think that the table is confusing for the reader (because of the different colours, because of the empty space between the lines that is caused by the pictures). Rsk6400 (talk) 19:42, 24 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
I think it looks just fine. There is a consensus regarding their notability - otherwise article about them would not have existed on Wikipedia. Alaexis¿question? 20:16, 24 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Alaexis: As I pointed out before, the current version has been stable for nearly two and a half months, it has been restored by two editors (myself and another one), so I don't see a reason why you didn't follow WP:NOCONSENSUS. Moreover, your edit summary was wrong: I explained why the table is not WP:DUE here on the talk page. I didn't say they are not notable, but that their notability is dubious, and the fact that their article was merged into this one is a not very convincing demonstration of their notability. Finally, the table is partly unsourced, i.e. the numbering scheme excludes an "Acting Head" and we don't have any reference for the way RS assign numbers to those "Heads". I never read "Pushilin, the 2nd Head of the DPR" in any source. Rsk6400 (talk) 06:59, 26 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
My point is that the heads themselves are notable. The articles about them have existed for years and no one has challenged it. If the problem is with the numbering we can remove it. Alaexis¿question? 08:37, 26 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
Well, but their office is not notable enough to be given the visual prominence that comes with the table and the pictures. Panam2014, the problem is not that they lack democratic legitimacy, but that their office is not given much prominence by RS. Rsk6400 (talk) 09:23, 26 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

Just a random geography fan, I've reverted your edits since the BBC country profile you added doesn't contain the area of DPR. Please feel free to add the area back with proper sourcing. Alaexis¿question? 08:23, 4 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
