Old talk

Should Roman Tsepov and Anatoly Sobchak be in the list? How about Anatoly Chubais, he worked in SPb Majoral office as well (not for very long though) Alex Bakharev 02:13, 25 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Neither Sobchak nor Tsepov or Chubais have enjoyed promotion under Vladimir Putin, unlike those listed. Frankly, whether Kudrin is appropriate here is also not clear. Colchicum 02:25, 25 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Reorganization and expansion

edit

I've made the following changes:

  • Minimize the lead by moving opionated statements, etc. to the article body (to the "Overview" and "Opinions" chapters.) I think the lead should be as general and neutral as possible (larger discussions should not take place there)
  • Added a background chapter
  • Moved "history" to further below (I think it's not as important as describing the (then) current situation under Putin's presidency.)
  • Added a graphic about the groups based on page 34 of the book "Developments in Russian Politics Vol 6."
  • Added more information about the various groups using John P. Willerton's article from the book as a source Offliner (talk) 14:14, 17 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Questions

edit
  1. Can we remove the confusing and pov tags now? I think the article has got better after the recent edits.
  2. Should we use present or past tense consistently? Some of this information is still current under Medvedev's presidency, but I think all our sources describe the situation under Putin, which is now in the past. My opinion is that we maybe should use past tense everywhere. Offliner (talk) 14:18, 17 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Diagram Needs Corrections

In the article's diagram St Petersburg is misspelled twice (as "St Peterburg") and Igor Sechin is incorrectly called "Ivan Sechin". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.171.54.116 (talk) 05:14, 21 March 2014 (UTC)Reply
