Review of revision 4359950 [Passed][edit]

Revision 4359950 of this article has been reviewed by Pi zero (talk · contribs) and has passed its review at 22:00, 30 October 2017 (UTC).[reply]

Comments by reviewer:

  • The mention of Ukrainian was awkward; not mentioned in the sources, the fact might be treated as general knowledge, but then the question arises of why mention that language rather than some other, with a bias concern on the answer. A more neutral approach — but one requiring some sort of additional source, not necessarily on a news site — might be to explain that Cyrillic was created for Slavic languages (if I'm right about that), whereas Kazakh is a Turkic language. (Some of that is in the current sources.)

Ukraine Russia relations aren’t great, (as country ball comics shows, or the fact that VK is blocked in Ukraine or what an editor from ukwn said), but it was mentioned just to tell another (Slavic) language using that script. Just mentioning Russia seems to be biased. I wrote the article at 2:30, If I recall correctly, and I was sleepy. That is why I could not structure it properly.

And to avoid possible bias or lack of context for Russian language, I had mentioned how many spoke Russian. One source mentioned Russian will be an official language, but they were speculating. Hence I didn’t mention it.

@Pi zero: for some reason, this appears to be published on November 7 in the DLP list. See Category:Acagastya (Wikinewsie).
