bad link
[edit]The link for the historian, Fyodor Sokolov (1841-1909), goes to an article about a pair skater. 96.255.124.231 (talk) 17:00, 3 November 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks for catching this! We don't seem to have an article about the historian yet, but I've edited the list to correct the mislinking. Cheers,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); November 4, 2013; 15:41 (UTC)
Surname of Sokolov
[edit]this article needs to be revised so that it complies with Wikipedia's basic concepts in how it is organized. Not only is the surname Sokolov included here (which it ought to be, since that is what this page is about), but also almost every variant and associative name - for which there is actually a separate page already in existence - is included as well. I am going to remove the names that do not belong here and hopefully those people who have entered them here have also listed them on the actual page or pages where they belong (so their efforts will not be entirely lost). However, their inclusion here - aside from violating Wikipedia's basic organization, also makes this page very confusing and virtually useless as a page to reference...

- Could you clarify which "variants and associative names" you mean? All I see on this page is people with the last name Sokolov ("Sokolova" is simply a feminine version of that same last name which should not be split out; see my other comment on Talk:Sokolov) and one instance each of "Sokolove" and "Sokolow", which may or may not need to be moved to the "see also" section. Also, a link to Sokoloff should be removed from "see also" because it's already mentioned in the lede, but that's the extent of the possible changes I see.

- I also removed Sokolove; who says it is Sokolov? -M.Altenmann >t 09:24, 19 December 2014 (UTC)
- I don't think anyone is saying that :) With a spelling so close, however, it may make sense to retain it under "see also". It is one of the purposes of the "see also" section to hold similar spellings, even when they are unrelated.
