Recent events

Where the pro-Russia demonstrations in the aftermath are covered? It should be added that some of the recent protest are neither spontaneous, nor entirely local, and include Russian tourist/activist and organized busloads arriving from Russia itself.[1]

WHO RUNS THIS SHITTY SITE!!! NO MENTION OF VICTORIA NULAND AND PYATT. YOUR TRUE COLORS ARE SHOWING!!!

==I would suggest that the person who asked "who runs this [...] site" reflect on the possibility that Wikipedia is indeed user-run and user-written, but that a careful, patient, and unrelenting effort to influence the article to reflect a specific point of view (in this case that the overthrow of Yanukovitch can legitimately be referred to as a "revolution") can succeed over the long term in making that point of view prevail historiographically - as, for example, the Single Assassin Theory is being made to prevail (or was the last time I looked) in the article on the JFK assassination. An example of what I mean by "careful" is the inclusion of a mention of the US/NATO's documented role in the overthrow of Yanukovitch to avoid accusations of blatant ignorance of the facts while at the same time representing it as a mere accusation on the part of Russia.== — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lestrad (talk • contribs) 05:13, 9 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I have been watching it for about a week, hopeing that it will present a balanced picture. I have been disapointed. Some guys put up a little fight, trying to put some balance into it but there is a concerted effort to make sure that non-US sources are avoided like the plague. In particular Volunteer Markel HATES RT with vengence. About time someone zotted his privaleges on WP. His love affair with BBC and the gang is sickening. Eventhough RT does report from a Russian view point, it is far less biased than the BBC. Just look at the reporting of the Iraq war and Syria conflict. By activly deleting RT sources Volunteer Markel is working aginst the principles of WP and waring against truth, peace and true democracy.

Coup d'état

I'll draw your attention to the first paragraph from the Wikipedia article Coup d'état

"A coup d'état, also known as a coup, a putsch, or an overthrow, is the sudden and illegal seizure of a government, usually instigated by a small group of the existing state establishment to depose the established government and replace it with a new ruling body, civil or military."

The Ukrainian Revolution of 2014 fits this description exactly. It is an embarrassment to Wikipedia that this article is not entitled the Ukrainian Coup. ------GreatestrowereverTalk Page 21:24, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

We already had this discussion, which resulted in no concensus to change. Also, this does not fit your definition as it was supported and instigated by the Euromaidan protests. BethNaught (talk) 21:27, 7 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
There was no consensus to retain either. Is there anything to stop the discussion and voting being repeated. And what if there's a majority to change but no consesnus to change? 31.49.168.160 (talk) 11:30, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia is a propaganda platform so it will be called a Revolution and not a Coup even though it was clearly a Coup. More Ukrainians speak English than Russians so they'll win every popularity vote (or whatever Wikipedia wants to call "consensus" lol).
The same is true of the so-called 'Orange Revolution' which was obviously not a revolution (even if it were "revolutionary"). As I said earlier, using figurative language which is not literally true is necessarily POV. However, Wikipedia policy is 100% irrelevant; only "consensus" matters even if you can point directly to policy. And on Wikipedia "consensus" means who can round up the most votes. That's why the Ukrainians are here trying to convince us native English speakers that a Coup is a Revolution.
In the same way the Ukrainians tell us that the "Crimean Crisis" was not a revolution even though they threw off the government. Why wasn't it a revolution? Because it was illegal under the Constitution. Do I really have point out the irony there? I'm taking bets on what the Ukrainians will want to call it when Eastern Ukraine (Donetsk, Kharkov, etc) actually does have a revolution, throws out the usurpers, and joins with Russia. I'm guessing either 'Ukrainian Crisis' or possibly 'Russian Occupation of Ukraine' (because, clearly, the territory always was and always will be part of Ukraine lol). Anyone want to guess? 173.79.251.253 (talk) 13:27, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I think I beat myself. Rather than 'Crisis' or 'Occupation' let's call it the 'Crimean Resistance against Russian Occupation'. That makes it clear that Crimea is, always was, and always will be part of Ukraine and that the triumph of the Great Svobada Republic over all of Eastern Europe is inevitable. Yes, I like the sound of 'Resistance'. It sounds so strong and brave! 173.79.251.253 (talk) 13:45, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Welcome to our encyclopedia. With all the respect, this is talk page where people should discuss changes to article, not their personal views or opionions, so this isn't the right place for any political views by anybody. Thank you. — Yulia Romero • Talk to me! 14:03, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Calling the Coup in Ukraine a 'Revolution' is a political opinion; it is self-evident that no actual Revolution occurred. I move we rename to "Glorious Revolutionary of the Great and Indivisible Ukrainian Motherland 2014". US State Department citation to come shortly. 173.79.251.253 (talk) 20:03, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
If you wish to restart this debate, make a move request through the proper channels. Otherwise please refrain from unconstructive remarks about political opinions. BethNaught (talk) 20:16, 8 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
There is no debate. It was a Coup but Wikipedia will refer to it as a Revolution because you have the votes. Please feel free to let me know if you have any more unconstructive remarks about my unconstructive remarks; I would love to hear them :) 173.79.251.253 (talk) 02:10, 9 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I edited above as 31.49.168.160, thinking I was logged in. What are the proper channels for restarting a debate? I agree with 173.79.251.253, the title of this article cannot be other than political.
Conversation was never closed and you don't need permission to restart it. In a revolution the form of government changes and in a coup the people change but the form remains the same. 3 Ukrainians say it was a 'revolution' while anyone who can pick up a dictionary can see it was Coup. However, that does not matter. These Ukrainians are not here out of a spirit of intellectual honesty; they're here to use Wikipedia as a propaganda platform. Look at their profiles and they even say 'I participated in EuroMaidan'.
The problem is that if you get managed to get 10 good-faith Wikipedia editors to say hey, wait a second, it was clearly a coup... Then 3 Ukrainians will turn into 15 Ukrainians and they'll override us native English speakers on the proper use of our own language. Consensus on Wikipedia is nothing more than a popularity vote and policy doesn't actually matter... all that nonsense exists to give Wikipedia some semblance of journalistic integrity. Anyone with a English dictionary can verify that the events in Ukraine were a Coup.
As I said earlier, and I will repeat here: Using figurative language which is not literally true is necessarily POV. Just because I think the Ukrainian Coup was a Disaster it does not make it the Ukrainian Disaster. Just because I think it was a Crisis doesn't make it the Ukrainian Crisis. Just because I think it will lead to a rebirth of the country does not make it the Ukrainian Renaissance. No revolution occurred so, whatever it should be called, calling it a revolution is POV. I'm not going to waste time arguing with non-native English speakers about how to use the English language. Anyone with a dictionary can verify my statements: If the form of government did not change then no revolution occurred. Just because it was 'revolutionary' (figurative) does not make it a Revolution (literal). 173.79.251.253 (talk) 13:35, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Здравствуйте all, I have to agree with User:Yulia Romero on this one: "With all the respect, this is talk page where people should discuss changes to article, not their personal views or opionions, so this isn't the right place for any political views by anybody." RSs talk. All others walk. Paavo273 (talk) 20:46, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
With all due respect to Team Ukraine: Don't try to teach me English. There was a famous quote from Abraham Lincoln. He asked, if you call a tail a leg, then how many legs does a dog have? Well, some will answer that the dog has five legs. If that is your answer then you've failed Mr. Lincoln's test. The answer is four... you see, calling a dog's tail a leg does not make it a leg; the dog cannot suddenly walk on it's tail because you've titled it a leg. You see my point? I understand that Team Ukraine has an interest, a very biased one, in calling the Coup that occurred a "revolution". However, calling it the "Ukrainian Revolution" does not make it a revolution any more than calling the "Orange Revolution" a revolution. Neither event was a Revolution even if that is the label the Ukrainians apply to it. I am not making a political argument, I don't care about Russia or Ukraine, I'm just telling you non-native English speakers that, in plain English, what happened in Ukraine was a Coup and not a Revolution. You can call it the "Great Orange Renaissance of Liberation" for all I care... it is still a coup. And don't talk to me about RS I've already posted them above IDIDNTHEARTHAT. 173.79.251.253 (talk) 23:10, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I'm a native English speaker with a degree in this stuff and you're 100% wrong, especially at English. Please provide proof to back up your assertions, otherwise it's more "I don't like it so it's a coup and a junta" rhetoric. --Львівське (говорити) 23:12, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Stop with the IDIDNTHEARTHAT nonsense. If you cannot take the time to read the thread and see that I have provided sources then why even respond? Please note the date stamp:
Encyclopedia Britannica: "coup d’état, also called Coup, the sudden, violent overthrow of an existing government by a small group. The chief prerequisite for a coup is control of all or part of the armed forces, the police, and other military elements. Unlike a revolution, which is usually achieved by large numbers of people working for basic social, economic, and political change, a coup is a change in power from the top that merely results in the abrupt replacement of leading government personnel." [2]173.79.251.253 (talk) 06:50, 30 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
By your definition, it's a revolutio, not a coup. Case dismissed. --Львівське (говорити) 23:25, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
You're obviously not a native English speaker bro. Unlike a revolution [...] coup is a change in power from the top that merely results in the abrupt replacement of leading government personnel. That is what happened in Ukraine. The form of government did not change, just the people at the top. Is there still a President and a Verkhoyna Rada still have sessions? If so, then there was no revolution. In a revolution, the form of government changes. When the Russians had a Revolution they killed the Tsars and set up a new government. When the Americans had a revolution we kicked out the British, wrote a Constitution, and started our own Congress. Ukraine did not change their form of government, therefore no revolution occurred. It is as simple as that. And stop lying about being a native English speaker if you can't even understand that quote.
You know I don't speak Spanish, in English please. Bro. --Львівське (говорити) 23:35, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, I realize you're trying to drag this down into a flame war. I know I shouldn't say anything. However, I have to admit that rereading this sentence makes me lol: "I'm a native English speaker with a degree in this stuff and you're 100% wrong, especially at English."
First is the grammatical error which I'll excuse (i.e. 'wrong at English' is not grammatically correct).
What I can't understand is, if I am 100% wrong about the Coup stuff then how can I be especially wrong "at" English? What can be more wrong than 100% wrong? It seems to me, that logic dictates, that if I am 100% wrong in both then I am not especially wrong in either... I must be equally wrong in both. Just saying... 173.79.251.253 (talk) 23:57, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Now you're just being pedantic. If you want me to break it down into a pie chart, you're 78% wrong at your coup classification, and 22% wrong at English, based on the convoluted argument that accompanied it. --Львівське (говорити) 00:58, 13 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
No offense, but are Lvivske, Yulia, etc. really pretended to be neutral parties? You're all Ukrainians as is clear from your talk pages. Even your signature is in Ukrainian. I don't care about either of your countries. I really don't. But I know in English the difference between a Coup and a Revolution and that calling a Dog's tail a leg doesn't mean he can walk on it. 173.79.251.253 (talk) 23:23, 12 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Ad hominem attacks aren't the solution here either. (BTW, in English "its" is the possessive and "it's" the contraction for it is.) Knowing the Cyrillic Ukrainian or Cyrillic Russian alphabet or having a non-Anglo-American username does not necessarily make one a non-native English speaker and surely not someone unqualified to edit here.
A real problem is this page has become the WP talk equivalent of a tape loop (as in 8-track tape, or a CD or MP3 player set on infinite repeat of just a single monotonous tune). As in been there; 'done that. The more helpful approach w/b to focus on content using RSs to build the encyclopaedia. Someone said READ this page. That's what I'd suggest. It shows this is just going 'round & 'round ad infinitum. ...Making fellow editor YR's remarks above and below all the more germane. Paavo273 (talk) 03:49, 13 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It's not a personal attack. It is the truth. This page is full of Ukrainians pushing POV. You really disagree with that? Some are even using their talk pages to crowdsource consensus including Lvivske, Yulia, and yourself (Paavo). I'm not saying that being Ukrainian makes anyone incorrect; I'm just pointing out a clear bias and attempts to manipulate public perception. If I am incorrect and Yulia, Lvivske, etc. are not Ukrainians or if you haven't been coordinating through talk pages then please correct me; but here are a few examples:
You're right, this page is like a tape loop: I point to the English dictionary or Encyclopedia and Team Ukraine just says IDIDNTHEARTHAT and RS over and over. As I said, I don't expect the article to be changed because it is being camped by Ukrainians with a political interest in calling the Coup a Revolution. But again, calling a dog's tail a leg doesn't mean he can stand on it. 173.79.251.253 (talk) 13:34, 13 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
By your misguided definition, any presidential impeachment is a 'coup'. Nixon was deposed in the Watergate Coup, right? --Львівське (говорити) 16:25, 13 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I understand you're trying to equivocate but at least do your homework. Nixon resigned and was never impeached. Clinton was impeached but acquitted of all charges. No US President has ever been removed from office via the impeachment process.
Neither situation is comparable to what happened with Yanukovich. There are two key reasons: First, there were no armed mobs in the street that forced Nixon out of Washington under threats of violence to himself and his family. Second, our Consitutional process was processed. As you surely know, the Ukrainian Constitution that was in effect, after the Ukrainian Supreme Court threw out the changes, required a 3/4 majority in order to remove the President. As you know, the opposition only managed to get 328 votes when they needed 338.
Please don't compare my nation of laws with your nation of mob rule. 173.79.251.253 (talk) 22:45, 13 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
What about the Romanian revolution? Dec 16, Protest in Timișoara. Dec 21, Ceaușescu gave his last speech. Dec 22, the newly appointed Minister of Defense Stănculescu refused to carry orders of Ceaușescu. Noon, the Ceaușescu's fled. Afternoon, they were captured. Dec 24, the Ceaușescu's were executed after a show trial. Bloodshed + no constitutional impeachment + direct military involvement (defaction of Stănculescu) + only 9 days from the very beginning to the very end, yet it is almost unanimously called a revolution, not a coup. Care to explain to me why?
Someone may tell me that the Romanian revolution changed the fundamental form of government. However, it then confuses me that the 1969 Libyan coup d'état, which saw the Ghaddafi's rise of power, is called a coup, not a revolution, because this coup also changed the fundamental form of government, from monarchy to the so-called Jamahiriya. I'm not trying to push any POV, just want to differentiate clearly revolution from a coup. 128.189.191.222 (talk) 23:26, 15 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I think you make some good points (though I know little of the Romanian Revolution). The title we give to things is often distinct from the reality. In the US, for example, they passed the "Affordable Care Act" which clearly increases the cost of healthcare lol. In the same way we call the Orange Revolution a Revolution even though, clearly, it was neither a Revolution nor a Coup but, instead, a political movement. Whenever figurative language is used that is not literally true then it necessary reflects POV (e.g. Orange Revolution or Libyan Coup) That being said, once a title becomes common usage that is what title is used even if it is POV.
In this case I think the final title is still unknown. Most news I read and watch in the US talks about the "Events in Ukraine" or "Situation in Ukraine". I recognize my evidence is anecdotal but I don't really see anything that says either "Coup" or "Revolution" in the media. I think both "Coup" and "Revolution" are POV. For lack of a common usage in English language sources we should really use a more neutral title such as "Overthrow of Yanukovych" which actually describes what happened and not how a particular side wants to have it perceived. However, I don't think that changing the title is realistic given the number of Ukrainians camping this thread to push POV. 173.79.251.253 (talk) 01:02, 16 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The events of 2014 do not constitute a coup by any responsible definition. The president and most minister fled the capital. The parliament elected new ministers and a new speaker, and set a date for a new presidential election. It had a right to take action to ensure continuity of government. That is not a coup. The president was not removed, impeached or anything of the sort. Parliament appointed an acting president due to the presidents undeniable abandonment of office.Royalcourtier (talk) 21:17, 10 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Coup d'état again

I have entered a translation of the German Wikipedia article including its references to English and German mainstream papers and stated the paragraph in WP approriate form. I see a removal of the passage as an attempt to utter a biased opinion "Russia and Yanukovych but also voices from influential Western newspapers like Der Spiegel or The Telegraph see the revolution as a form of coup d'etat because the movement would have acted against a democratically elected president. Moreover they claim that the Yanukovych ousting contradicted several principles of both the old and the new text of the Ukrainian constitution"GeorgeDorgan (talk) 05:25, 25 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Term revolution

WP:YESPOV, The term "Ukrainian revolution" is currently used only by the English Wikipedia, while most other Wikis commonly use the term "Euromaidan". 

I emphasized that the term "revolution" is a often accepted opinion, but not necessarily a fact GeorgeDorgan (talk) 05:36, 25 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
this article is about the revolution, its the widely accepted term to depict the events. We had several discussions here and consensus was to use 'revolution' in the title and to define the event. You have now started a draft of original research and fake references to push this "coup" fantasy. Two of your references (one a blog) had no mention of the word "coup" and the other was german. This is a WP:WEIGHT issue, just because you find one source that may (i dont read german, so who knows if this one was fake too) say its a coup, that dosent override that the rest of the world doesnt abide by that conspiracy theory or revisionism.

No mention of Nuland affair?

The intercepted cell phone call by Victoria Nuland, in which she spelled out who ought to be in the next government, received extensive coverage, and could be interpreted as evidence that the U.S. was manipulating the outcome of the protests.

There is a section entitled "Background," which discusses events prior to February. There is extensive discussion on the role played by Russia, but nothing on the role played by the U.S. This looks to me like a neutrality problem. Joe Bodacious (talk) 18:32, 15 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

By 13:00 on 20 February at least 34 protesters more had been shot dead by police, with reporters verifying the bodies (15 at the Kozatsky Hotel, 12 at the Ukraine Hotel, 7 at the Central Post Office).[159]

Source given is : "Ukraine death toll rising on Feb. 20 with at least 42 people killed, most by gunshots from police". Kyiv Post. 20 February 2014. Archived from the original on 21 February 2014.

The source says 35 death toll and does not even claim to be able to identify the police as the responsible.

the article even states clearly:

Most of the victims APPEARED to have been victims of gunshot wounds from police and shot near October Palace this morning as protesters advanced on police.

This goes for ALL admins patrolling this page: If you feel you're admin enough to remove entries on talk pages, you should have enough honesty to correct blatant lies when you get them pointed out to you as well. The BBC Newsnight team and the German documentary on the fact that fire on the demonstrators contain incontrovertible evidence that fire came from the Maidan controlled Hotel and radio recordings of the police conversations on radio shows they do not know who is firing and the firing is coming from other buildings. No written order to fire on the demonstrators exists and no one in the Yanukovic government would have dared put their name on such a document - none of the Police accepted or could accept anything but written orders for such firing or risk getting accused of and jailed for carrying out actions they had no authority to carry out. These are now KNOWN facts _throughout_ western academia and will be part of ALL official political institutes publications. Please show some absolute bare minimum and remove the claim I referred to as the source has been proven both wrong and not a credible source anymore. Or do you suggest we use Nazi newspapers from WWII as credible sources on the invasion and occupation of Poland and all the other occupied countries. Please do not try to stifle actual facts. As a Marxist you should find it easy to support accuracy and reliability as well as finding it easy to remove inaccuracies that no longer have root in factual events. Also the _claim_ in Kyiv Post that Police shot and killed 34 people does not make it so, is not enough as source - it does not constitute a serious criminal investigation and it is at best hearsay. Please act as an adult or refrain from trying to re-edit when I remove the erroneous entry myself tomorrow if the entry has not been corrected. I will post your edits or lack of such along with this post to you and other admins accross usenet and academic sites if you fail to bother complying to your own (Wikipedia) rules, guidelines and policies here as admin patrolling that page and the talk page.
