Pinging relevant users @Mdm.Bla, Howardcorn33, and Absolutiva:. Departure– (talk) 01:39, 3 May 2026 (UTC)
@Emiya1980: please see the above topic #RFC: Lead image (again). Departure– (talk) 01:41, 3 May 2026 (UTC)
@Departure–: The image currently uploaded was the one in use as the article's lead image prior to the deleted one. Hence it is appropriate that it should be the default image for the time being until a new image is chosen. Emiya1980 (talk) 01:44, 3 May 2026 (UTC)
Should we reopen an RfC again above, because it was changed. Absolutiva 10:13, 3 May 2026 (UTC)
The RFC's closing says to hold off for at least two months. Emiya1980 (talk) 10:29, 3 May 2026 (UTC)
Why was it deleted though (although I prefer this photo myself)? Bloody-pin (talk) 04:13, 9 May 2026 (UTC)
Per a discussion on Commons, invalid copyright information. It wasn't a free image. Departure– (talk) 16:08, 9 May 2026 (UTC)
Thanks! I wasn't aware. Bloody-pin (talk) 03:50, 10 May 2026 (UTC)

IPA transcription of the Russian name

Current IPA in the g. note is [ɪəsʲɪf vʲɪsərʲɪənəvʲɪd͡ʑ d͡ʐʐʊɡəʂvʲɪlʲɪ], only using the unstressed allophones, it should be [ɪosʲɪf vʲɪsərʲɪonəvʲɪd͡ʑ d͡ʐʐʊɡɐʂvʲilʲɪ], using the stressed allophones where the stressed syllables are and also using the [ɐ] or [ʌ] pre-tonic /a/ allophone. Can't change the article so writing this here. Qasseneve (talk) 23:37, 26 May 2026 (UTC)

Hey there. I took a look at the g note and don't see any IPA. Should I put your recommendation in regardless?
There is some IPA in the f note. Does that look good to you? Redvelvetvanilaaaaaaaaa (talk) 15:13, 4 June 2026 (UTC)
Yeah, the IPA in the g note got deleted on the 2nd of June. The IPA in the f note looks good. Qasseneve (talk) 10:52, 8 June 2026 (UTC)
Added! Let me know if you have any other IPA recommendations. Redvelvetvanilaaaaaaaaa (talk) 17:32, 8 June 2026 (UTC)

Lidia Pereprygina Article exists. Should we add a link here?

Lidia Pereprygina is mentioned a number of times in the relationships section, but no link is given to her article, which is more detailed: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lidiya_Pereprygina

Could we put a hyperlink here.

Also, the name spelling between the two articles is different (Lidia vs Lidiya). Presumably we should have a consistent spelling for this person's name? NineGardens (talk) 01:04, 31 May 2026 (UTC)

 Done. The hyperlink has been added, and the name spelling corrected to match the linked article. A. Randomdude0000 (talk) 02:46, 31 May 2026 (UTC)
Thank you! ~2026-32522-49 (talk) 00:17, 1 June 2026 (UTC)
