Bolshevik vs Communist[edit]
I am curious what the delineation is between those two terms and when it would be deemed correct that the Bolsheviks transitioned into the Communist Party. 23:35, 7 June 2023 (UTC)
- The Bolsheviks were a faction of the Russian Social Democratic Labour Party. In 1918, after taking power, the Bolsheviks renamed their party the Russian Communist Party (Bolsheviks). Ideologically, they were communists (small "c") all along; but they were only Communists (big "C") from 1918 onward. Yspaddadenpenkawr (talk) 02:33, 12 July 2023 (UTC)
Incomplete sentence[edit]
In the "repression" section, in the paragraph starting "On August 30...", the first sentence describes the Kaplan assassination attempt. And then, there is clearly something missing. The next sentence starts mid-sentence and the next sentence after that refers to a term that hasn't been introduced. This is really messy. Can someone please clean this up? Thanks! --95.89.78.72 (talk) 20:21, 6 August 2023 (UTC)

Orphaned references in Russian Civil War[edit]
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Russian Civil War's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "caven":
- From World War I: Hinterhoff 1984, pp. 499–503
- From Battle of Baku: (Missen 1984, pp. 2766–2772)
I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. Feel free to remove this comment after fixing the refs. AnomieBOT⚡ 05:12, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
The removing of the infobox[edit]
There was zero consideration with the members when the infobox was heavily reduced. I find this unappealing to me as a reader of Wikipedia because it removes the aspect of it being a massive conflict. Nusciii (talk) 14:24, 10 May 2024 (UTC)
