Union of Writers[edit]

I don't read Russian, but according to Google Translation, the link above says he's a member of the Union of Writers. Since this seems to be disputed, could someone who can read Russian confirm this and add the citation if appropriate? Will Beback talk 02:41, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Link says he was (but not is) a member of the Union of Writers. --Borealis55 (talk) 08:56, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Then that's what the article should say. Will Beback talk 09:22, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The Russian article says his membership was restored in 1997.-Galassi (talk) 10:30, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Let's just summarize the sources. Will Beback talk 10:43, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

That's what we do!-Galassi (talk) 22:54, 13 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Cite please. --Borealis55 (talk) 19:06, 19 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Here's a citation for the subject being a Russian historian. Will Beback talk 02:49, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Borealis is not intrested in RS. His point is that a Jew writing in Russian cannot be a Russian writer...--Galassi (talk) 11:04, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sources trump opinions. Without sources it's just one opinion versus another. Will Beback talk 19:03, 12 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]
