Poorly written?

[edit]

The whole article on this is written in very poor English, clearly by a non-native speaker. I am no authority on these vehicles, but can anyone review this and help out? Just to make it read easier? Scryer360 (talk) 21:45, 3 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Claims of Russia actions

[edit]

The article claims that the vehicle is used by Russia in Ukraine at 2014. While it is known from photos that the vehicle is in Ukraine but it is not known, confirmed or proven that it is Russia military (no uniform signs what are required for military personal as otherwise they are considered as spies and penalty of that is a death). So until it is confirmed that Russia troops are in area (satellite photos does not support that claim, nor photos in area), it can't be said that vehicle is in the area. And clearly it isn't been used in war as there is no war (so far neither side has declared the war) nor military action. All what can be guessed too, is that Ukraine police is the one in photos as vehicle is sold to police in different nations. Golftheman (talk) 21:46, 7 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

What really? Russian parliament approved military action like a week ago. We even know what regiments these 'unknown paramilitaries' are from; the question is if the marines specifically were using the GAZs. Ancholm (talk) 18:09, 8 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Soldiers with Russian equipment, Russian weapons, and Russian vehicles? If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck. Stratocaster27 (talk) 18:55, 15 April 2014
So, basically he is right and it is unproven...like US SF training ISIL...and Russia's claim that US military Cargo planes supplying them with arms last week. It looked like a duck and quacked like a duck too. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.104.96.121 (talk) 10:29, 9 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Nobody cares anymore. Back to the Tigr: The OSCE claimed the Tigr is used by DPR in Donbass, that is somewhat more reliable than "russian" or "american" claims. Alexpl (talk) 14:08, 9 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'm no wikipolicy expert, but that doesn't sound like sufficient evidence to make a claim that something is fact on wikipedia. That sounds like it falls in the category of "original research" to me..45Colt 05:43, 23 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
