First, why isn't the original Vlast article referenced in this section? Also, calling Vlast a "leading Russian magazine" is simply not correct. The section should also be written to make it clear that it is Vlast that is making the statement "Russia, for a day, was on the brink of the biggest catastrophe since the time of Chernobyl".--66.41.65.177 (talk) 00:23, 15 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
Vlast has a section under the Kommersant website. The wiki article did say "leading" and now it says "major". Given that the audience of Vlast is very small (<100000), I don't see how one could defend "leading" or "major" as a description of this magazine.--209.46.24.99 (talk) 15:53, 16 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
