Russians at War

Re recent edits seeking to add a discussion of the controversy surrounding Russians at War: I am familiar with this controversy, having seen it discussed by a number of Ukrainian friends and acquaintances on social media, but I am having trouble finding much coverage in news media. There's that one article from Radio Free Europe, which I am personally extremely leery about considering a reliable source on this topic. There's one from the Kyiv Independent, a solid source but obviously with an editorial view here, and one from "Global News", a Canadian outlet I don't know much about. Three articles, one of which is dubious, isn't a lot of coverage. On the other hand, it does seem the film festival has now withdrawn the documentary, so this isn't just an online controversy. Unsure how to proceed. AntiDionysius (talk) 19:07, 12 September 2024 (UTC)

Man I really went to all that effort without realising that the film has its own damn article with a well-sourced controversy section. Okay, in that case it would seem that it does indeed meet the test of notability, and this is instead a question of how much should be included here when there is a whole article.

I re-did the entire Russians at War page, where I included numerous citations from the Western Media and the history of the festivals for this film, the text is on the Talk page of the film as the page is locked, and I can't upgrade it. The current page of the film is a soup, where the content is mixed up between various sections. Please look at my version and post it if you can instead the old one. There are numbers of pro-Ukrainian trolls who didn't see the film (only about 400 people in entire world saw it) but scream everywhere that is it Russian propaganda. Those who saw (see the citations in my draft on the Talk page of the film) - all agreed that it is the opposite, and mostly a pro-war film. EVS-VR (talk) 23:40, 2 October 2024 (UTC)

You have a history of misleading edits. As other editors have said, with that in mind, every sentence of your edits needs to be checked.
