• Comment ALT0 is a bit faulty, the bit isn't in the body of the article (it's in the header, but that should be a summary of the body), and the article itself only lists sporadic examples of bilingual works. The hook makes it sound like all Ukrainian sci-fi and fantasy is in both languages. Ornithoptera (talk) 08:03, 18 April 2022 (UTC)

Ornithoptera, We can clarify this with ALT2 (and this is mentioned in the article's body, and is hardly controversial or surprising, given most Ukrainians are bilingual): --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 08:27, 18 April 2022 (UTC)

• ALT2: ... that some Ukrainian science fiction and fantasy is written in Ukrainian and some in Russian?
• OK--it's long enough and new enough. QPQ is done. I can't read Russian, Ukrainian, or Polish, but the references look solid enough and I'm working on good faith here with a longterm editor. I made a number of copy edits. I see no plagiarism. I think we should go with the simplest hook--the first one. Drmies (talk) 14:24, 19 April 2022 (UTC)

Ukrainian science fiction and fantasy → Ukrainian speculative fiction – This is alraedy the main cat for this; this is the meaning of uk:Фантастика України, fantastika means speculative fiction. This is already obvious from the current lead: "Science fiction, fantasy and horror are literary subgenres of speculative fiction (a.k.a. "Fantastyka")"... which however is not ideal, as those three genras do not for example include alternate history which is obviously part of fantastyka (Фантастика) and some other genras. See also similar moves for some other Eastern European countries and rationales listed at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Science Fiction. _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 12:19, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
