Please add that the company participated in the Russo-Ukrainian War and the Donbas War as a combatant in the Infobox, or mention that it was deployed in these wars in the introduction.^[1]^[2]^[3] Maybe also change the short description to "Russian private military company" to keep conformity with other similar PMCs.

I made the changes to this article, for the infoboxes about the two wars, you should make or request the edit on those pages CT55555(talk) 22:39, 1 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Reviewer: Vaticidalprophet (talk · contribs) 16:55, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, this article is currently too far from the GA criteria for a full review. Significant issues include:

The timeframe of events is confused and in several cases actively contradicts sources. For instance, ENOT is said to have been dissolved/merged 'following Mangushev's death' (in 2023), but every source says 2019 -- including the one cited. Similarly, the article is unclear on whether ENOT was founded as a private military or evolved into one, which is clarified in sources.
The article fails GACR #3, due to its lack of breadth. Every other language version has a more-developed article, and examining sources in the article reveals extensive information not used, most prominently ENOT's mix of negative and positive interactions with the government (the article neglects the former completely and is sparse about the latter). A simple search finds multiple sources not used in the article, and I had to double-check that sources which were used were actually there, because so much information in them was unused.
The prose needs work, though as it stands the article needs enough expansion that copyediting now before expanding probably isn't worth it. However, there are several spots that stood out (e.g. E.N.O.T. has undertaken armed activities in Ukraine, Syria, Nagorno-Karabakh).

Due to the breadth and source-text integrity issues, I'm quickfailing at this time. I hope to see this article expanded. Vaticidalprophet 16:55, 4 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
