Recognition by Artsakh[edit]

Transnistria has been recognised only by three other unrecognised or partially recognised breakaway states: Abkhazia, Artsakh and South Ossetia.

First time commenting but the government of Artsakh dissolved a month ago following an Azerbaijani attack that seized the region. Not sure how to edit but just wanted to state 50.26.186.162 (talk) 13:42, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I think that Artsakh should be removed. Alternatively we can say that it *was* recognised until 2023. Alaexis¿question? 16:03, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Made my first edit to a Wikipedia page, so please correct if need be. I had raised the same question on this article and based my changes on another user’s change

I concur with user Super Dromaeosaurus' reversion, we should wait until the formal dissolution of Artsakh in January. THMWikiAcc (talk) 23:38, 4 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There is no government of Artsakh anymore. There is no entity holding any territory. No need to keep waiting, the "state" doesn't exist anymore. Doesn't matter that as they were being arrested their leadership said that the "state" will officially cease to exist on Jan 1, if there is no government and no territory it is little more than a micronation at best, and I don't think wikipedia includes national recognition from micronations.

The article looks like a propaganda leaflet[edit]

This article was written by completely engaged and biased editors who have prejudices against Pridnestrovie. There is nothing resembling a neutral point of view here, right down to the title of the article (Transnistria), which is a dirty political insult to Pridnestrovie, not its name. I believe it needs to be removed. 2A03:F680:FE04:20E1:F404:CF37:C4DC:DEC8 (talk) 11:14, 13 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Transnistria is an English word and is not offensive. All the editors of this article are independent editors and have used reliable sources. --LDM2003 talk to me! 19:29, 25 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I will allow myself to express an unpopular opinion here, but the article is really biased and reflects the purely point of view of Western ideologists in the context of the confrontation with Russia, in which Pridnestrovie is presented as one of the instruments of this confrontation. I do not consider it appropriate to discuss this now, because these concerns not only the topic of Pridnestrovie. However, the article is not only biased, but downright offensive, at least by its title. In this discussion, several pages earlier, commentators clearly explained how and in what context the term "Transnistria" (in relation to Pridnestrovie) arose and how it is used, so I will not repeat this. This is a direct politically charged insult that cannot be considered a name of the real region with real living people. There is not a single article on Wikipedia that, by its title, would insult the population of any territory other than this one. 80.94.250.208 (talk) 10:08, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, and any particular suggestions for improvement beyond a rant about artice title which anyway isn't going to change? — kashmīrī TALK 11:04, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In an article with such a title, it makes no sense to change anything; it a priori has not encyclopedic functions, but propaganda ones, and has the character of hate speech. 80.94.250.208 (talk) 11:37, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If you have no desire to improve Wikipedia, stop writing here. — kashmīrī TALK 12:24, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You're not reading carefully. I wrote what needs to be improved; there is no other way. 80.94.250.208 (talk) 15:10, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Most articles need improving. Most things in the world need improving. Anything more specific? — kashmīrī TALK 15:15, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That is, indicating that the title of the article is unacceptable, that is, that the article cannot initially be improved because it contradicts any signs of encyclopedicity in this form, is not specific enough? How can you improve someone's insults? Add more insults? 80.94.250.208 (talk) 16:27, 11 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your adequate assessment of this absurdity, friend! But this article is an excellent example of how Wikipedia has become an exclusively propaganda tool, and a very crude one at that. This stream of insults against Pridnestrovie is necessary precisely for edifying purposes, to demonstrate to people what this website has become (here, for example, is a good use case). Local politized provocateurs are doing much more harm to Wikipedia with this article than to Pridnestrovie, so I'm not sure there's any need to be outraged by these insults. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.19.215.86 (talk) 16:35, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Flags and Coat of Arms[edit]

At the moment the flags for this article appear to be Greek and Byzantine, not the actual flags of this state. Additionally, the coat of arms is just a picture of a statue of Alexander the Great. Seems like someone's messing with the page. KingDeadCo (talk) 22:28, 30 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This has been reverted, thanks for notifying. CMD (talk) 03:47, 31 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

History before 1939[edit]

I would like to see something about the history of the area before 1939. Now it starts at that date. 2001:4C3C:DE00:A700:E9C9:5961:6918:7BA8 (talk) 19:44, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sure. Please feel free to add relevant content, based on reliable sources of course. — kashmīrī TALK 20:01, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
