Opanas Fedenko → Panas Fedenko – I don't know how this article ended up using "Opanas Fedenko", but "Panas Fedenko" is clearly the common name for this person. All of the cited sources in the article use "Panas Fedenko" and none of them use "Opanas". The only source I can find that even uses "Opanas" is the Encyclopedia of History of Ukraine, which puts in in brackets, with "Panas" as the main use of the name. "Opanas Fedenko" doesn't even register on Google Ngrams.[1] Nor does the Ukrainian Wikipedia article uk:Феденко Панас Васильович use "Opanas". As "Panas Fedenko" is clearly the common name across sources, I request this article be moved to reflect that. Grnrchst (talk) 10:20, 16 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

support' unclear where the 'o' came from—blindlynx 16:43, 16 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
If you're really asking, it's because the alternative rendering of Панас is Опана́с, Panas and Opanas, and Fedenko presumably used both at some point. Sisuvia (talk) 14:23, 17 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

I support the proposed move. Definitely more appropriate for the article to be named Panas Fedenko than what it currently is. Sisuvia (talk) 14:14, 17 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Support. Google Books returns zero results for Ukrainian "Опанас Феденко",[2] and only one for "Феденко Опанас".[3] —Michael Z. 20:48, 17 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
