Abkhazians and South Ossetians

edit

Under what provisions of the Russian natioanlity law are Abkhazians and South Ossetians granted Russian citizenship? The Observant (talk) 21:55, 8 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

  • Until 2001 every former Soviet citizen could apply for Russian citizenship through registration (Article 18, p. "g" of 1991 Act). Abkhazians and South Ossetians formed no more than 5-10% of Soviet citizens who did this. 92.36.70.105 (talk) 20:49, 3 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

Infobox

edit
  • Move the reference in the infobox to somewhere in the body, probably the last paragraph of Dual citizenship arrangements with other former Soviet states, and expand upon its content since its not mentioned in the article.
  • Moved and expanded.
  • List when the law was amended in the "|amendments=" parameter
  • This would be quite unwieldy and the layout would be terrible. There's 35 separate amendments for this law alone.
  • Fair enough

Lead

edit
  • Put the Russian translation of "On Citizenship of the Russian Federation" after it's mentioned: ({{lang-ru|О гражданстве Российской Федерации}})
  • Done.
  • The infobox says it was amended, mention when it was amended in the first paragraph, and if possible, why it was amended/what was amended.
  • Per above, there's 35 separate amendments for the primary law and would result in something unwieldy. Additionally, since the subject of the article is Russian citizenship law in general rather than the 2002 law specifically, I believe it's fine just to describe the major changes in the body, which is already done.
  • Fair enough
  • "and residents were Soviet citizens" → "and its residents were Soviet citizens"
  • Done.

Terminology

edit
  • No comments

History

Imperial Russian subjects

  • Done.
  • "authority over naturalization" → "authority of naturalization"
  • Typically, it's authority 'over', 'on', or 'for'. Authority 'of' sounds very off.
  • Got it

  • Done.
  • lowercase "emperor"
  • Done.
