Factual error: .da TLD does not exist

[edit]

Article mentions that .da and .net TLDs are used for unmorous impact, but the .da TLD does not exist. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.177.187.219 (talk) 20:56, 29 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Expand, Wiktionary, or Delete

[edit]

Currently this article seems mainly to be a dictionary definition (WP:NOTDICT). As such it could go to Wiktionary or simply be deleted at AfD. Before we send it there, does anyone think it has a useful role and do they feel like expanding and citing it? Chiswick Chap (talk) 19:00, 19 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

  • The term "Runet" also applies to other aspects of the internet besides just the internet in Russia. From the article: "in 2009, a Yandex report stated that Runet can pertain to sites written in Russian, Ukrainian, Belarusian and Kazakh languages​​, as well as sites in any language published in the national domain .am, .az, .by, .ge, .kg, .kz, .md, .ru, .su, .tj, .ua или uz".[1] Per the source below within this comment, the term is exceedingly more complex than a simple dictionary definition.

Article improved

[edit]

Article improved. Machine-translation fixed

[edit]

Does it merit an article?

[edit]

Is this term used in English? The article cites only Russian-language sources. Does the term deserve an entry in an English-language encyclopedia if it’s apparently not even notable enough to have a single non-Russian source cited? —Frungi (talk) 22:23, 16 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, the article is necessary. I came here expressly to look up the term while copy-editing an article about nostalgia for the Soviet era in contemporary Russian culture and commerce. 91.66.81.175 (talk) 15:08, 21 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Improved the article some more

[edit]
  • Made some small changes to make the article more readable, but this thing is still a mess... The article is still relavent, the term Runet is mentioned in some non-Russian news outlets. Boudewijnd09 (talk) 08:56, 23 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge of Internet in Russian into Runet

[edit]

Both terms refer to the same concept, with the moniker Runet being more widely used (and also in many more languages). — kashmīrī TALK 11:02, 24 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

About the word Rossiya

[edit]

The article says that the Russian word for Russia has an /o/ sound in it, whereas it's more of an /a/, such as in the word "cup". 212.40.84.219 (talk) 00:05, 16 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I just removed it because it is useless anyway. Mellk (talk) 03:33, 17 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
