Pavel Milyukov → Pavel Miliukov

• "Miliukov" is, I think, by a considerable margin the most common transliteration of his name used in English. It is the spelling used in the standard histories of the Russian Revolution by Orlando Figes and Richard Pipes, for example. john k (talk) 14:22, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
• The Cyrillic version of his name has ю, so the transcription should have "yu". Anthony Appleyard (talk) 15:08, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
  • Wikipedia titles are supposed to reflect the most common name used in English, not some arbitrary Cyrillic transliteration scheme. Even if that scheme is, in general, the most common one, we should evaluate individual names individually. Note WP:ROR:

    If the person is the subject of English-language publications, the spelling predominantly used in such publications should be used.

    That is in preference to the default romanization. john k (talk) 16:19, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
• Oppose - the name is more correct as it is now, there is no real reason to change it as both romanisations are not going to be totally accurate, however the present one is the most accurate. Using WP:MOSTCOMMON for this sort of thing is not really appropriate as it can introduce inaccuracies in pronunciation, as it would here if the title were changed.

• Oppose, per WP:RUS#People. The proposed title is not "the most common" but roughly on the same level of usage as the current title (as a simple gbooks search would attest) with the current title being used under item 3 of the above guideline.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); May 25, 2011; 15:21 (UTC)

There's a reference to a passage in Richard Abraham's biography of Kerensky, but no Footnote, and no book citation in the reference section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.6.114.186 (talk) 17:12, 27 June 2015 (UTC)

SPS?

Who told you to delete a reference? It is a crime. You could have removed the link, that seemed enough. Above all you did not notice it is open source and was published on Wikipedia last year.[1] Please inform yourself.Taksen (talk) 17:57, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
