 | A fact from Ales Bialiatski appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 14 June 2011 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
|  |
 | This article is written in British English, which has its own spelling conventions (colour, travelled, centre, defence, artefact, analyse) and some terms that are used in it may be different or absent from other varieties of English. According to the relevant style guide, this should not be changed without broad consensus. |
Following Qwyrxian remark, here are some arguments why I think http://freeales.fidh.net could bring additional and valuable information elements to Ales Bialiatski's external link section:
- Although it advocates for the liberation of all political prisonners in Belarus, FreeAles website is - with Viasna Human Rights Center - the main English and Russian speaking website providing information from Ales Bialiatski while he still is in prison. Most information from prisonners come from statements of people who visited them in prison.
- The website does not only promote FIDH demand to release Bialiatski, but it also features European Institutions and other International NGOs views on the Liberties in Belarus (Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, Helsinki Comittee, OMCT...).
- The website has a two and a half year archive documenting detention conditions of political prisonners in Belarus. It is the only English and French speaking website that followed Belarussian political prisoners' cases so extensively.
- Although it is linked to the International Federation of Human Rights, and although Bialiatski is still considered as FIDH vice president, this website provides further information to anyone willing to understand the law stakes Bialiatski's case illustrates.
The result of the move request was: page moved. Vegaswikian (talk) 17:56, 23 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Ales Bialatski → Ales Bialiatski – His real name is Ales Bialiatski and only this name is correct. It is widely used on the official site of his organization http://spring96.org/en/news/45622 - so it is very important to move that article in the right place!

@Therequiembellishere, claims that including birthplace is "overkill" by including the Karelian ASSR/Republic of Karelia is incorrect. It's customary to include the first-level administrative division of a federal entity in the birthplace, and the RSFSR was such a thing. There is furthermore precedent to do this (see Boris Yeltsin).
