Talk:Reforms of Russian orthography

"Minor adjustments were made in 1956" What were the nature of these adjustments? Presumably this refers to the 1956 codification but I haven't been able to determine just what changes were made. Gr8white 19:02, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

OK, I tracked down the changes and added a footnote. Gr8white 02:24, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

Which inflectional endings were written as -его or -ого before 1918? I know that adjectives and participles were written as -аго or -яго in genitive and accusative case, but what about pronouns?80.146.90.31 (talk) 17:51, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

Sources

Anyone have any sources for any of the reforms in the last part of the article? I am curious to see them. Entbark (talk) 18:19, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

No sources. I'm deleting it. It's been here for a long time without any source and most of them seem very weird. --Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 18:29, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

Apostrophe

Yer#Peter the Great's reform says that “In pre-revolutionary Russia, the hard sign was marked by an apostrophe (') as first determined by Peter the Great and used throughout the Romanov Dynasty,” but unfortunately has no references. This should be mentioned here. —Michael Z. 2008-09-06 15:34 z

I'm quite sure that it's outright wrong. I'll be very surprised if it's correct. Thanks for bringing it up. --Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 21:26, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

"Attempted further reforms"

Somebody's question from Language Reference Desk:

"Attempted further simplifications in the early 1960s and late 1990s were met with public protest and were not implemented."

Which simplifications? I couldn't find anything using Google, and the sentence is unreferenced. The only thing I could find was a paper related with spelling of "нн" versus "н". No such user (talk) 08:41, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
