This article suffers from some challenges. I may be wrong, though it's quite possible that this article has been infiltrated by ethno-nationalist schools of thought, particularly from Poland and Finland, seeking to portray the Soviet partisans as bad guys. The sections on Poland, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania are about as long, if not longer, than the sections covering the Republic of Russia and certain people who edited this article have sought reduce its scope to a rap sheet of alleged crimes committed by partisans. The article gives the impression that the Soviet partisan movement was as prevalent in Poland and Finland as in Russia. Leonid Grenkevich on p.234 of his book summarizes: "...partisan fighting affected many regions but was particularly prevalent in German occupied Belorussia, the Leningrad, Kalinin, Smolensk and Orel Districts of the Russian Republic, and in the Ukraine. This partisan warfare on so vast a scale was unprecedented in Russian history." So, if the Soviet partisan movement was most prevalent in the Belarus, Ukraine, and the Leningrad, Kalinin, Smolensk and Orel provinces of Russia then I feel that the article should primarily concentrate on those regions. But this article concentrates extraordinarily heavily on Poland, Finland, Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania - is it because this article has been infiltrated by ethno-nationalist interests from and sympathetic to those countries? Soviet partisans also served in Yugoslavia, and even in Italy but curiously this article doesn't have devote a single word to that fact. The article is in need of fundamental revisions LegitmateProfit ( talk) 01:52, 2 December 2018 (UTC)
Fully protected for a period of 10 days, after which the page will be automatically unprotected. Converted Ed's 12-hour semi, which I don't think would have done it. Negative,
VM,
GCB — this looks like a bogus
WP:APL ECP request. To my knowledge, there is no "related content" clause as an arbitration remedy for it like there is in
WP:ARBPIA4. Polish stuff is just one among many countries covered by that page. And even as a "related content" this request fails. The contested edit isn't about Poland, it's about Belarus.So, please take care not to repeat such requests here, more as a matter of principle than anything, as I don't think any admin would have granted this request — AE shy ones would have stayed away, AE experienced ones would have seen it my way. Will refactor this message on the article talk page, as this place gets archived in a flash. Will also 1RR it up.
