hello, i saw your modification i put NYC and DC in non Independent city state due to their particular status of consolidated city county and federal district also both of them proposed urban secession according to this source https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urban_secession Boackandwhite (talk) 09:13, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I would suggest to find reliable sources that explicitly call them city-states. Otherwise this looks like original research, which is prohibited. Thanks. Mellk (talk) 19:29, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What is the reason behind deleting improvements in the Ukraine rulers article? Were they harming? Because without them article only looks more bland and unfinished. 46.211.127.94 (talk) 07:15, 16 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Simply put, Runglish is not only about "nadsat" or the macaronic language of Brighton Beach. It's also a name for Russians' flawed English. I listed one more flaw that can be found in this kind of Runglish.

(Not contesting the "unsourced" part though. It would ridiculously difficult to obtain a source - it would take a meta-analysis of - literally - over 9000 pages on, say, Livejournal and "old" YT to see whether people from Russia posting in English with this very flaw - writing "congolese" or "albanian" without the proper capitalization. I only can say "конголезец" or "албанец" respectively would be un-capitalised in Russian) 81.89.66.133 (talk) 09:07, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I was referring to the lowercase in Russian. But this sounds anecdotal. Per WP:V this should be supported by a reliable source. If there is no source that mentions this, then probably it is not worth mentioning. Mellk (talk) 10:02, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
