86.166.98.190 (talk) 04:29, 1 February 2013 (UTC)this whole thing reads like an advertisement. The USSR is weirdly whitewashed from the narrative. Also, there is a narrative. It's well sourced and all but I feel like a lot this needs a rewrite- doesn't feel objective86.166.98.190 (talk) 04:29, 1 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I agree - neither are the contents of this article neutral nor does the style fit an encyclopedia well. The text reads like an advertising pamphlet. --Michał Kosmulski (talk) 21:54, 15 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, it seems to be a copy paste from a wartime Soviet propaganda pamphlet. Particulary bewildering is the statement that in 1971, the factory and the workers received the award from Vladimir Lenin. Vladimir Lenin in 1971? I'm not a native speaker of English to correct the style, but I agree that the article requires a thorough clean up. 80.82.19.198 (talk) 10:58, 12 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

History[edit]

The History jumps from WW2 to 1991. A section entitled "Chronology", which covered this period, was removed in 2013. Undoubtably, it was badly written, but it probably should be fixed up and re-added.--Jack Upland (talk) 20:27, 24 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
