Only a small part out of the tens of thousands Kadyrovtsy serve in this regiment

Just see the Russian article about the concept of theKadyrovtsy with the incomplete list if Kadyrovtsy units (most with their own articles):

https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Кадыровцы

This isn't any sort of "common name", but a confusion and misinformation, perhaps based on the name (Kadyrov regiment). The Kadyrovtsy are all armed men serving the Kadyrovs. Today they're consolidated in many regiments, battalions, and so on, in addition to unofficial militias and reservists. And this one is just one of these.

It's not even the only one bearing the name "Kadyrov" (in fact most units are named either "Kadyrov" or "Akhmat", after Akhmat Kadyrov as part of his cult). And detachments from all of these existing today were sent to Ukraine, too.

So.please restore split tag, or just split the unit yourself.

Also since you're interested in the castration incident, the Russian policeman was a member of one f the Kadyrovtsy unitz the SOBR Akhmat. The unit on Ru Wikipedia: [2]

Which particular article or edit are you referring to? Volunteer Marek 21:24, 28 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

#Nomination of Torture and castration of a Ukrainian POW in Pryvillia for deletion - it's been done by a Chechen special police (SOBR) unit from Grozny, even if the man with the knife wasn't even a Chechen nor from Chechnya. (He also wasn't a "soldier" as the article kept describing him, but a policeman in the service of Chechen Interior Ministry, meaning of course the service of Kadyrov.)

Salso, several Kadyrovtsy units listed in the Russian Wikipedia article have been just recently (late 2022) created by Kadyrov specifically to be sent to Ukraine. Including at least 1 new regiment and multiple separate battalions of the National Guard (former Internal Troops), Russia's paramilitary police.

Ah, ok, could be right. Do you have any sources other than Russian Wikipedia? Volunteer Marek 23:53, 28 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The Russian article quotes https://rusi.org/explore-our-research/publications/commentary/chechens-putins-loyal-foot-soldiers and several Russian language articles, I do not know if this Wikipedia accepts all of them as reliable. Xx236 (talk) 08:12, 30 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

ChatGPT

I asked ChatGPT what your real name is, and it replied "Wikipedia has a policy of preserving the anonymity of its editors, and as such, the real names of its contributors are not publicly disclosed." Zero^talk 05:26, 12 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently ChatGPT has a better understanding of Wikipedia policy than some editors on here. Volunteer Marek 05:43, 12 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
