If you are interested in Ukraine-related themes, you may want to check out the Ukraine Portal, particularly the Portal:Ukraine/New article announcements and Portal:Ukraine/Ukraine-related Wikipedia notice board. The New article announcements board is probably the most important and the most attended one. Please don't forget to announce there the new articles you create. Adding both boards to your watchlist is probably a good idea.

Finally, in case you are interested, similar boards exist at Russia portal as many editors contribute to topics related to both countries. The respective boards there are: Portal:Russia/New article announcements and Portal:Russia/Russia-related Wikipedia notice board. Of course there are also many other portals at Wikipedia or you may just get right into editing.

Again, welcome!

P.S. Good job on the Executions of Cossacks in Lebedin article. Keep it up! --ddima.talk 05:36, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Executions of Cossacks in Lebedin

The article Executions of Cossacks in Lebedin has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Machine translation of an article on ru-wiki; incomprehensible in large parts, too low quality to be worth keeping around expecting other users to fix it. Likely POV issues.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Fut.Perf. ☼ 07:46, 6 February 2010 (UTC)

Move Cossack Research Center to Hetman Mazepa Cossack Research Center?

Hi, I've started a discussion at Talk:Cossack Research Center as to wheather the article should be moved to Hetman Mazepa Cossack Research Center, as that is how the article talks about the center in the lead. I'm contacting you because I identified you as a major contributor to the article through a script. Thanks, RainCity471^{report my errors}_{list of failures} 21:38, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
