I really do not understand why this page is Kiev. The name is Kyiv (or Kiev). The country has clarified how it is to be spelled and all media and government organizations use Kyiv when reffering to the capital of Ukraine.

Just because non-educated mass of people do not know geography, wikipedia should not reinforce incorrect spelling.

Semiprotection review

  • 02:48, 31 July 2007 Alex Bakharev protected "Kiev (disambiguation)"‎ (disruptive editing by IPs/socks [edit=autoconfirmed:move=autoconfirmed])

As the above semiprotection was some time ago I'd like to discuss whether it's still necessary. As well as welcoming comments from regular or sometime editors I've also notified the protecting sysop, Alex Bakharev (talk · contribs · blocks · protections · deletions · page moves · rights · RfA).
