• Good job on this, Alex. I think some of the "cassette scandal" material from Mykola Mel'nychenko could be moved here. What do you think? —Michael Z.

• I've added an item to suggestions for "Did you know...", which would appear with other new articles on the main page if accepted. Also added Gongadze's disappearance and death to 2000-09-16 and the Cassette Scandal to 2000-11-28. —Michael Z. 23:30, 2004 Dec 18 (UTC)

• Cool, Michael. I've tried to do those links by myself, but was disoriented by the hierarchy of date pages. It's dangerous regarding my limited browsing possibilities :). I'm doing an update to this page, so part of Mel'nychenko and SBU will be moved here as you suggest. I think our editing is going great. Pryvit, AlexPU

• I attempted a small cleanup of this article with some recent developments, including revising out of date information indicating Kuchma is president. Yakym

This article is strangely devoid of any citations. Is there a reason for that?--Ernstk (talk) 04:37, 28 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ladies and gentlemen, I'm afraid the bottom section is overloaded with redundant details which belong rather to Georgiy Gongadze and Mykola Melnychenko. Don't we mean politics, not criminal aspects, here? On the other hand, the section is outdated. I heard Oleksander Moroz is practically leaving politics, why don't reflect this with regard to Cassette Scandal?

Less important issue is the structure. Can anybody see the main section here, describing the scandal itself? That's probably because it is in the intro now. Thanks, Ukrained (talk) 22:27, 29 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The article states that in order to avoid Tony Blair and George Bush next to Kuchma, the list of participants was read in French, listing Turkey next Ukraine. With all due respect, even in French Turkey preceeds Ukraine. The effect was achieved because, in French, United States and United Kingdom do not start with U, they start with E and R.
