This term, when searched for via google as <yakutia taiga-alas> (without brackets), returns about 19K hits, mostly in scientific papers and such. So it is a legitimate word, although somewhat specialized.
The name should be changed to 'Alas', however, and the article needs to be rewritten in English, since it looks like (and probably is) a machine translation. -- Marjaliisa ( talk) 07:34, 7 July 2011 (UTC)
Usually disambiguation words in parentheses are 1. something the article subject is or 2. the field where the article subject is studied. Names that follow this rule are Alas (landform) or Alas (geography). The name Alas (taiga) doesn't follow the rule, since an alas is not a region of taiga, but a landform found within the taiga biome. So I moved the article to Alas (geography). — Eru· tuon 22:48, 11 July 2011 (UTC)
