Suggested Move

Hello,

I think that this article is incorrectly named - according to phonetic translations, the title of this article should be "Order of Bohdan Khmelnytsky".

Any suggestions are welcome.

Thanks, Horlo (talk) 07:26, 21 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Should be changed. --Bandurist (talk) 11:16, 21 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You are right. "Order of Bohdan Khmelnytsky".

I propose to unite articles of the Soviet and the Ukrainian orders. This is almost done already. 95.69.152.59 (talk) 18:23, 29 September 2009 (UTC) UeArtemis[reply]

Deletion request

Although there is a relationship between the orders, they are separate orders and of course separate countries. The articles IMHO should stay separate.

An analogy would be to have an Austrian order under an article for Nazi Germany. Both speak similar German but they are separate countries and cultures althought they were for a brief period united during WWII. Same here. You have an independant Ukraine and a totalitarian Soviet State of which Ukraine was a part of at one time, but which no longer exists exept in some peoples imagination. --Bandurist (talk) 15:16, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I don't say those orders are same. I just say that the article Order of Bogdan Khmelnitsky (Soviet Union) contains everything that this article contains. There is no single thing in this article that is not mentioned in Order of Bogdan Khmelnitsky (Soviet Union). There should not be two articles in Wikipedia describing the same thing. If You don't agree, than You can edit those articles and separate the facts about the Soviet and Ukrainian order, so that articles do not overlap.

However - they are not the same thing. They are two separate orders. One was established in 1943 and the other in 1995. --Bandurist (talk) 01:21, 30 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You're right, but still we have two articles with the same text. Vanjagenije (talk) 11:54, 30 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
