Hello Papushin, can you offer help on the Gostandert system for motorcycles? I understand that IMZ-8.103-10 is a Ural sidecar and that IMZ-8.1236 is a Voyage but I can't fully decipher the system. The first nimeral is capacity class, what is the second numeral? IMZ-8.401 is a trike so that confuses me. Any pointers to a Gostandert page or even bettter a simple explanation would be very welcomed. M-72 08:23, 26 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

Serhiy Perkhun edit

Google search:

  • "Serhiy Perkhun is a f'ckn bbeatchcvhchcchc" - 181 results [1]
  • "Sergey Perkhun" - 22 results [2]

Plus, he's Ukrainian, so the Ukrainian spelling "Serhiy" is better, as most Ukrainian footballers are spelled. Chanheigeorge 21:49, 8 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Talkback edit

 
Hello, Papushin. You have new messages at Pknkly's talk page.
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.

Noticed you hail from Chicago and also Russia. Perhaps you can contribute to the Chicago article, especially the Neighborhoods section or the articles highlighted in that section. Is there a part of the city that has a concentration of Russians? You may also want to look at the section on Cuisine and the articles referenced in that section. Have you seen any articles about the Russian influence upon Chicago that you may cite? Thanks for your consideration. Pknkly (talk) 14:49, 15 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Name pronunciation edit

Hi Papushin. I noticed you did some audios of how to pronounce Russian names; can I persuade you to do one of Nicolai Yuryevich Reshetikhin? Thanks, pred (talk) 19:44, 13 September 2010 (UTC)Reply

File source problem with File:VMK.jpg edit

 

Thank you for uploading File:VMK.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged per Wikipedia's criteria for speedy deletion, F4.
