Appears to be a non-namespaced, less comprehensive duplicate of Ukraine with only one wick (to Useful Notes Pages In Main). Seems like a straight forward cut to me.

Yes, simple cut. No need to be fancy with all the TRS stuff.

I was unsure what the proper procedure was. Originally I was just going to throw it on the cutlist but I wanted to play it safe.

Agreeing with a cut, by the way, for the reasons cited.

Anything in there that isn't included in the real article?

Other than that, cut.

Well the first bit in in both but it looks like these tid bits are only on the non-namespaced one:

  • The reason the debate between the spelling of the capital is Kiev/Kyiv mainly has to do with the languages used. During Soviet times, the official language was Russian. English translated the capital from the Russian spelling, which is Киев (pronounced "KEY-ehv"). After the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991, the capital reverted back to its original Ukrainian spelling, which is Київ (pronounced "KEY-eve"). Because of the Western stereotype that everyone in Eastern Europe speaks Russian, the Russian-translated spelling is still generally used, but that is changing.
  • The popular "Carol of the Bells" originated in Ukraine. As a New Year's Carol. In fact, Christmas is a very strict religious holiday in Ukraine, and all merriment happens on Saint Nicholas Day, which falls on either December 6 or 19 (depending on which calendar you use), and on New Year's, which is celebrated on January 14th thanks to the Ukrainian Orthodox Calendar being chronically behind.
    • Also, the translation is horribly, horribly wrong. It's not about bells at all. It's about a swallow flying into people's homes to signal the coming of Spring.

OK, I did not mean to start this up and let it sit and take up space so sorry about that. I am not sure if I can integrate the additional information into the page very well. Should I try or is someone else willing to do it? And after that do I start a crowner to vote to cut the page? I check the instructions about Trope Repair Shop and it did not really make it clear to me...

Bumping this to the top.

In such a clear duplicate case, I would just cutlist the article and add the bullet points here somewhere on the Ukraine.

OK, how many people need to approve that before I just do it?

Tagged, transferred and cutlisted. The only thing missing after the cut would be the removal from Useful Notes Pages In Main.

No, you need to accept the cut request first. I've taken care of everything else.

You aren't going to let me get away with letting the cutlist back up for a week or more, are you?wink

It's cut. Locking the thread.
