A typo[edit]

Sorry if I'm writing here for such a simple task, but I can't edit since I don't have 500 edits. The "infrastructure destruction" paragraph under the "Impact on population" one needs a capital I as the first letter. Thanks, Jtorquy (talk) 22:22, 27 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Vodka? Seriously?[edit]

What kind of stereotypes, couldn't they find photos of another product than a random photo of a shelf with vodka. 176.120.205.56 (talk) 17:03, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well the important part is the sign, do you have a picture of another Russian product being taken off the shelves? Slatersteven (talk) 17:05, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Outdated[edit]

Such an important article, yet so outdated as indicated by passages such as "The Russian economy is expected to shrink by 11% by the end of the year". This was written in 2022 and never amended. I just hope someone with enough spare time takes reworks this article so that it reflects situation as we know it today rather than back in 2022. Gorgedweller (talk) 09:14, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's why we have not news, article should be written in past tense about events that have happened, not ones that might. Slatersteven (talk) 09:21, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Renaming to "Economic consequences..."[edit]

If nobody significantly objects to this, I will be renaming this article to "Economic consequences of the Russian invasion of Ukraine". Impact is a proscribed, jargon word that—when used figuratively—means "strong/violent/marked effect". Firstly, there's no one effect of the invasion, but more importantly, saying "economic strong/violent/marked effect" is a leading statement and precludes the need for the article body itself.
