NPOV
editThis article expresses simple, casual anti-communism. As if capitalism can simply be equated with "Democracy" -- ask all the poles who've taken it in the neck from this new "Democracy"...
But, as I've stated elsewhere, I'm not going to change the article myself -- now anyway -- because of all the gatekeepers on Wikipedia. I don't want to deal with these bureaucrats. But consider this a challenge to the Zuk article on NPOV grounds.

OK, but the comment about Poles is unnecessary. I only created the page because I could not find enough EN info on this van, not to be abused Gingerpig2000 (talk) 08:25, 31 March 2010 (UTC)

editThe article on Pobeda don't mention its alleged Chevrolet background. On the other hand, the article on Pobeda in Russian Wiki claims it was own design, only partly modeled after Opel Kapitan. Therefore, this article is not an appropriate place to put unreferenced theories on very indirect Chevrolet background of Żuk. It is not a place to put unreferenced (original research?) theories on Nysa van either - in fact, it wasn't numerous in the military, and militia was only one of customers. They were very common as ambulances and minibuses. After 1989 Nysa simply could not compete in these fields with more modern and comfortable Western designs, while Zuk still remained a cheaper light "workhorse" truck for some time.

Ah well, there was no EN Pobeda page that I could find when I created this in 2004. Off topic, I suspect there was a lot more to Nysa's non-survival vs Zuk's survival than competition. Gingerpig2000 (talk) 08:33, 31 March 2010 (UTC)

editFrom 1968 to 1973 a series of succesor of both Żuk and Nysa has been produced, however this type did not go into larger production. I think it's possible to create an article about it.
