Thanks for your contributions on Wkikipedia. But I noticed [ that in your edit here] you did not use the common English names of Ukrainian cities that should be used throughout English Wikipedia for consistency within articles, for consistency with others Wikipedia articles and for consistency with the Wikipedia article on the cities themselves. You seemed to have used the names of the cities how you prefer them. That is fine in your private live, but that is not how it works on an encyclopedia as Wikipedia that should have the same names throughout its pages. I don't know if you ever came across a church that distributed literature in which "Jesus" was sometimes spelled as "Gezus" and then in another pamphlet as "Jesush". Please stick to well tested Wikipedia conventions that work.

"the Ukraine"
edit"the Ukraine" isn't the (English) common name of Ukraine since December 1991 (& for consistency within this article + others about Ukraine)
"Great patriotic war"
editChanged non-English term into common English name (also for consistency within Wikipedia) + due to decommunization in Ukraine the term "Great Patriotic War" is outlawed
"the Crimea"
editRemoved political motivated description of city and people (when the club still existed (it does not since 2013...) there was no 2014 Crimean crisis
Removed political motivated description of Crimea
Symon Petliura
editSymon Petliura was not a warlord like Nykyfor Hryhoriv and Anton Denikin but Petliura was one of the leading figures of the Ukrainian People's Republic. In Soviet propaganda Petliura keeps being portrayed as a warlord to give people the idea that the wish for an independent Ukraine did not exist. This particular frame was then parroted by Western authors who until recently did not have a clue what went on in Ukraine and probably did not really care if they got their information about Ukraine right (but were more interested in "cool stories").
Pavlo Skoropadskyi
editPavlo Skoropadskyi was not a warlord like Nykyfor Hryhoriv and Anton Denikin but Skoropadskyi was the head of state of the Ukrainian State. In Soviet propaganda Skoropadskyi keeps being portrayed as a warlord to give people the idea that the wish for an independent Ukraine did not exist. This particular frame was then parroted by Western authors who until recently did not have a clue what went on in Ukraine and probably did not really care if they got their information about Ukraine right (but were more interested in "cool stories").
Biographical
editmoved page per WP:COMMONNAME, "Viktorovych" is his patronymic. Patronymics are not part of common names, see the article names of other Eastern Europeans like Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy
Per official transcription used by (=http://www.naftogaz.com) Ukrainian Government website and per Romanization of Ukrainian. As both forms are widely used, they are both common names. Therefore I think we should follow the form used officially
No more Communist names
editIn order to comply with decommunization laws the city was renamed on by the Ukrainian parliament to.[2]
On 15 May 2015 President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko signed a bill into law that started a six months period for the removal of communist monuments (excluding World War II monuments) and the mandatory renaming of settlements with a name related to Communism.[3]
Rename city request on talkpage
edit{₩{subst:Requested move|NewName|reason=Kirovohrad was was officially renamed effective on 14 July 2016 to Kropyvnytskyi, thus the respective article should be renamed per WP:MODERNPLACENAME. The place had no established English name (and never had) and has no English language footprint. Article is currently called after former local name that is not in use since 16 July, thus I propose to rename it to its new official local name according to WP:P-NUK and WP:UKR.}₩}
Thank you Borscht
