The first source cites 6 victims, not 3, see [1] (2nd sentence) --Ssr (talk) 20:06, 26 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

Yes, I noticed that, but the other source says three - we generally use the more conservative number when figures contradict. Note though, I've added that some reports put the death toll at six. If more clear information is available later, we can update the article accordingly. (What about other news sources, how many people are they saying were killed? If they're all agreeing on one certain number, then the other is probably incorrect.) Tempodivalse [talk] 20:12, 26 May 2010 (UTC)Reply
Major news sources put 6 now instead of 3, e. g. http://lenta.ru/news/2010/05/26/blast2/ (cites other major sources) --Ssr (talk) 20:15, 26 May 2010 (UTC)Reply
Okay, updated accordingly; thanks. I hadn't looked at the Google News Russian headlines (which all say six people), but was basing everything on the provided links. Tempodivalse [talk] 20:18, 26 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

Comment on verifiability

[edit]

I don't feel as though I'm "uninvolved" enough to review the article per our publishing policy, having added so much. However, being fluent in Russian, I've gone through the article/sources and can ascertain that all the information is present in the links - in case the reviewer is having difficulty with Google Translate's pathetic Russian/English translations.
