Origin of the article

This guy has become very prominent as an expert on the Russian war in Ukraine, with his videos attracting up to half a million views a day. My original version is largely based on the article in Russian Wikipedia. I invite wikipedians to expand and improve the article. Thank you! BorisG (talk) 01:10, 5 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. Why the edit history of this article is about unrelated people? Should be fixed somehow. --Triggerhippie4 (talk) 20:26, 8 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. Can you explain?BorisG (talk) 11:08, 9 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Got it. It is because the draft was initially developed in my sandbox, which was previously used for other articles. I do not know how to fix it now. Any advice? BorisG (talk) 11:12, 9 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

All I found is this: WP:HISTSPLIT. Triggerhippie4 (talk) 18:29, 9 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This is all over my head and in any case requires admin rights (for good reason). Actually, I don't see a huge amount of harm from the current situation. Do you think we need to ask an admin to delete older history? - BorisG (talk) 14:45, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
