Well, that is all an empty fact, first of all, because it is; and second of all, because does not go into the details. Aleksandr Grigoryev (talk) 12:11, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
There is no Ukrainization! There is a total Russification. Russification is when Moscow was forcing Ukrainians to build Russian schools and speak Russians, descriminating Ukrainian speaking scientists, teachers, soldiers, etc. There was no such thing in relationship to Ukrainian language. Kyiv does not force Russians build Ukrainian schools and speak Ukrainian in Russian Duma. That is ridiculuos. There is no Ukrainization, but a cultural revival of Ukrainian culture. And in my opinion the government in Ukraine be it local or national is way too lenient towards forcing deRussiafication of the culture and even a mentality. The Russian language should be prohibited completely for a few years and then permitted again if necessary. That way nobody such as Russianname would call deRussification as the "forced" Ukrainization. Aleksandr Grigoryev (talk) 13:31, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
This map should be included in the article, however, I'm not sure if it's allowed to add an image with non-english letters in english wikipedia? Also, I don't know who the main authors of the article are, so I'll leave it up to them to find a proper space for this image. Best regards --Sylius 18:20, 14 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
On what level (federal, regional (or I guess Oblast), or local) are decisions on what language is taught in schools made?
I have some collection of international links to Ukrainian and European ethnographic maps. Maybe it will help to see the difference with the current state:
I came acros this article [2]. Is it worth mentioning in this article that Transport and Communication Minister Yosyp Vinskyi approved a plan that forbids foreign songs in Ukrainian trains and aircrafts? Mariah-Yulia (talk) 21:17, 27 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
User:Mariah-Yulia has removed information placed in the article by another editor regarding the Donetsk City Council passing a resolution banning further use and expansion of Ukrainian in the predominantly Russian region. The information is sourced to Russia Today TV, and the reason for removal is that this source is bias. Please note, the removal whilst likely done in good faith was not done for a valid reason, in that Russia Today TV is a reliable source for matters concerning reporting of facts, and the media created by the station is used by many media outlets around the world. It seems that Mariah-Yulia doubts the validity of the information since, perhaps at first glance, no Ukrainan news agency has published this information. This is not how content on Wikipedia is deemed to be relevant for inclusion, for then one could doubt the entire validity of Holomodor, since PravdaorTASS never printed the same information. It turns out that others have reported said information, including the Ukrainian News Agencyatthis link. The information has been re-added as per the validity of Russia Today TV being a reliable source in the first place, and the existence of a (somewhat not needed at all) second source. --Россавиа Диалог 10:44, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
There was recent addon to the article lead [3] following several reverts removing sources requests [4] or returning unsourced claims to the lead [5] [6] [7] [8] . The reverts were given comments like "discouraging Russian is evidenced by the banning of Russian in various aspects, as they sources show; education-http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Meeting_near_Russian_school.jpg", "Stick to what the sources say", or no comment were given. The disputed parts are "systematically discouraging Russian" and "which has been banned in various aspects of life" (in bold), for which no sources were given, and no sources provided contain a word about "systematically" or "in various aspects of life". Can somebody please have a look. --windyhead (talk) 08:33, 10 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
People removing source requests with comments like "see sources" and "there are sources already": instead of removing source requests again, please put a citation from source confirming statements for which sources are asked in place of source requests. --windyhead (talk) 11:32, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I've got a friend living in Ukraine And he told me that many radio stations were closed, same thing cinema's. Think about it. A live Russian radio program. How will you translate it to Ukrainian? Closed down. Afro-Russian (talk) 11:34, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I'm a third party and I've read the lead and the English sources. The BBC said it was a "ban" on Russian. I'd say the BBC is pretty reliable as a source. So it is clear at least that Russian has been banned from radio programs and TV. I also believe the source that explains the ban on movies is reliable. I can't comment on the ban of Russian in the education system and government as I can't read the Russian source. I believe statements regarding the ban of Russian in TV, radio, and movies should be included, it is well sourced. I think if there is such a huge resentment of the word "systematicaly" then the sentence should be rewritten without it. If the editors trying to include the statements about the ban on Russian are editting in good faith then one word should not matter to the point of edit warring. That word is not vital to the meaning of the sentence. What is vital is that Russian was banned, not that it was systematically banned.
As for "in various aspects of life," that exact expression does not need to be stated word-for-word in the source in order for it to be included. We are not machines, we're editors. We possess the ability and authority to regurgitate information in a way it was not precisely written as before. My point is, in order to determine if the source does validate "in various aspects of life," you need to do more than a search for that expression in your browser. Read the source and determine if it states that Russian is indeed being banned from use in multiple aspects of life. I think the supporters of inclusion could be helpful in this and explain more specifically why they believe "in various aspects of life" is supported by the source (what paragraph or line).

Hi, please don't remove ban "according to some" - there is no single law exist banning the russian, and even BBC source states that russian movies with ukrainian subtitles are OK --windyhead (talk) 12:58, 18 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
What I read said that radio and TV programs would face "severe penalties" if broadcast in Russian. I don't think that qualifies as "ok". AzureFury (talk) 17:24, 21 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I found a realaible source [9] that states only 11% of Ukrainians opposed to more films dubbed in Ukrainian, Any objevtions to put that information in the lead? PS those Russia Today fellows realy give there true intensions away by forgetting to give that information in there article Mariah-Yulia (talk) 20:35, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think the phrase meaning Russian-language programmes should be subtitled in Ukrainian (it was in there but Irpen took it out) does belong in the lead to show the Ukrainian government is not trying to "wipe out" Russian from TV. I.o.w. I think it is an important piece of information! Mariah-Yulia (talk) 21:09, 31 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
What is the purpose of the Russian language public universities in Ukraine? I understand private universities who pay their taxes to the Ukrainian government. Why does Ukrainian government need to spend money to build the Russian speaking universities when even the Russian Federation cares less about except only spreading a bad word in that regard instead of investing into that issue?

This article is extremely biased and there are many opinions given. I've worked on the first few sections and I'll continue to work on them, but additionally if anyone else has more knowledge on this subject and wants to help find citations for any of the 'facts' given then by all means go ahead, this article has so few citations it looks like the school projects I wrote when I was 12. Thanks guys! Finnybug (talk) 13:35, 11 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Well,
then I have to pinpoint here as well that in such form this addition is not supported, since it is confusing fo the reasons I raised:
Excluding Hungary, national/assimilation policies in the other countries mentioned have a relevantly different scope, since the subject's are Ukrainians without any debate in the Ukrainian historical regions, while regarding Hungary, the whole question is controversial, especially on such context and wording as this section is stating the things. In the Kingdom of Hungary, in the corresponding era, Rusyns/Ruthenians were the subject, who never called them or even regarded themselves Ukrainians then contemporarily - as many to also today. Thus even Hungarians did not know they would put "Ukrainians" as the subject of Magyarization and vica versa, moreover the territory of the Kingdom of Hungary were never part then or before any historical Ukrainian state or entity. Therefore also reffering to Western-Ukrainian territories are also misunderstandable, since i.e. Carpathian Ruthenia is only today part of Ukraine and may be called as a Western Ukrainian territory.Consequently, reffering to Magyarization to an era where the whole context is fallacious and confusing, and the conflict existing until today about the debate of origins or identification of the Rusyn People; that Ukraine/Ukrainians do not recognize them a spearate ethnicity should not be included or imported into anachronistic conditions.
The sentence that was anyway problematic should be rephrased, but if someone really stick to include Magyarization, then the necessary clarification needed (and an NPOV one, not "imperative" declarations that "they were Ukrainians, just they did not know about that" or any prejudicative standpoint. As well the term Ruthene is much broader, than Rusyn - however in Hungary the latter was definitively relevant - despite the official census counted Ruthenians, and it is heavily misleading to identify them Ukrainians just because of some possible nationalistic reasons back in time. Of course, this does not exclude the fact that later some of them accepted the Ukrainian identity, but we should not confuse modern times of some instances and retrospectiveley project in the past in an inproper way.
In case, if the sentence is properly rephrased reflecting the concerns written above and gains consensus, I won't have any objection to include Magyarization.(KIENGIR (talk) 20:16, 30 October 2018 (UTC))[reply]
I think new language policy (2012 summer) is also important here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_policy_in_Ukraine --Nimelik (talk) 16:41, 26 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The language in this article tries really hard to sound soft and politically correct. Discrimination and prejudice against Russians and Turkic population is downplayed when you compare it to the way Russification article is written. 46.143.90.13 (talk) 18:36, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
