[edit]Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at History of Ukraine. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.
- If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively, you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
- If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.
Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Mellk (talk) 11:00, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
- Rather than simply restoring previous edits, please address the concerns raised. Mellk (talk) 08:47, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
- If you continue to make unsourced and POV edits without discussing, I will request a block instead. Mellk (talk) 10:15, 21 September 2024 (UTC)

Note
[edit]Please note that due to WP:RUSUKR, editors who are not extended confirmed are unable to make edits about the Russo-Ukrainian war, broadly construed, but it is still possible to make constructive edit requests on the talk page. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks. Mellk (talk) 11:27, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

[edit]Please see Wikipedia:Naming conventions (Ukrainian places) which states the current consensus on Wikipedia and is the reason your change of historic "Kiev" to "Kyiv" was reverted.Sjö (talk) 09:53, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
- Thank you for your feedback and for pointing me to the relevant policy on Wikipedia. I appreciate the importance of following established naming conventions and community consensus. However, I would like to highlight that there is a growing international trend toward using "Kyiv" instead of "Kiev" even in historical contexts.
- The United Nations, major international media outlets, and official bodies have adopted "Kyiv" as the preferred transliteration. The ongoing KyivNotKiev campaign promoted by the Ukrainian government has successfully changed the naming in many global platforms. Given this context, I believe it is worth reconsidering how historical names are presented in Wikipedia to reflect current standards and respect the preferences of the people whose history is being described. However, I fully understand that such changes require community discussion and that this cannot change quickly. Smm380 (talk) 12:56, 4 January 2025 (UTC)
