Present Tense etc.
editAs of September 2023 the Minsk is still a ship, whatever condition it is in, in dry dock in Sevastopol. Thus unless it is declared decomissioned or is sunk, it is best described in the present tense. Similarly, may I suggest, being part of an active war in the Black Sea, editors are generally careful and respectful in their edits on this sensitive subject.

- Agree fully. Unfortunately, some editors keep adding the ship to List of shipwrecks in 2023 despite objections. — kashmīrī TALK 07:29, 15 September 2023 (UTC)

On the other Ropuchas damaged
edit"Attacks on Sevastopol During 2023, a number of different attacks were made on the Russian fleet in Sevastopol, damaging various ships including two others of the Ropucha class.[4] After the initial attacks, some of the fleet appeared[where?][according to whom?] to have been dispersed from Sevastopol, but Minsk remained in port." - this part of the article is quite controvirsile. The first of the listed ships was damaged by the same attack which destroyed Saratov in 2022 - and it was in Berdyansk harbour. The second - "Olenegorsky Gornyak" - was damaged in August 2023 near Novorossiysk. But from the article the reader could make a conclusion that both ships were damaged during attacks in Sevastopol. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 185.130.54.10 (talk) 13:54, 17 September 2023 (UTC)
