Kamianets-Podilskyi

edit

As the article on Kamianets-Podilskyi clearly indicates, the city has long been part of the Russian Empire when Sirota was born. To state that he was born in Poland is obviously wrong. Therefore I have restored the earlier and historically correct version. --Catgut (talk) 08:32, 15 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

    • Comment: QPQ won't be coming until Thursday. Currently away from my home desktop PC and my tiny little fingers get worn out fast doing all this on a phone! Expansion and improvement not yet completed, but figured it was best to submit this DYK now before the window closed. Again, mobile phone not an ideal medium for a large-scale project like this. At the moment the article has been expanded just over 5x; by the time I'll be done, it may be as large as 10x. But that won't happen until at least this weekend. Until then… Done!

5x expanded by CurryTime7-24 (talk). Self-nominated at 00:21, 21 February 2023 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Leo Sirota; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.Reply
