I moved this page to North Ossetia because that is the name in English. The name North Ossetia-Alania is a translation of the Russian version, and it is not used in English. -- Cantus 04:12, Sep 4, 2004 (UTC)
Yes, I have.
Search: "north ossetia" -"north ossetia-alania" -wikipedia|wiki | 50,300 |
Search: "north ossetia-alania" -wikipedia|wiki | 36,500 |
Plus, this is the way the CIA World Factbook [1] and Britannica [2] refer to this republic. Oddly enough, Encarta uses Alania [3]. The Columbia Encyclopedia is the only one using North Ossetia-Alania [4].
If we're going to start using translations/transliterations of geographical names only, then why don't we call Russia Rossiya then?
The Wikipedia policy is to use the most common name in the English language. That is, North Ossetia.-- Cantus 21:16, Sep 5, 2004 (UTC)
About what kind of tolerance you talking about. If you revert to false and anti-ossetian information on pagese about Ossetia???
1. See statistics! The republic have a sizeable RUSSIAN population - befor and after any events! In difference from neighboring republics...
2. æ - symbol from IPA(International Phonetic Alphabet) transcription systems for English. This symbol from Latin-1 Supplement range.
1. Compromised some. See Demographic section. 2. OK. Transliteration and transcription not the same.
Hi there. I'm just wondering whether the creation of Wikipedia:WikiProject Ossetia, Portal:Ossetia, and Template:Ossetia-geo-stub has ever been proposed or disucssed. I think User:Zandweb's unilateral decisions don't particularly meet Wikipedia's guidlines. Kober 05:13, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: moved ( closed by non-admin page mover) SITH (talk) 14:02, 16 March 2019 (UTC)
– MOS:DASH, WP:CONSISTENCY, WP:CONCISE. Several of these are reversals of undiscussed moves to spacing of the en dash, and the rest are correction of hyphen to en dash, and/or shortening of over-long names. En dashes, not hyphens, are used in the compound names of merged polities (hyphens are used in those named after two people/things without any kind of merger; e.g. Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, was not a merger of "Wilkes, Penn." and "Barre, Penn." – no such places existed, and the singular town was named in honor of two people with no actual connection to the place). The en dashes are not spaced just because one of the names is two-word. Someone has been confusing our treatment of complex dates, at MOS:DATE (e.g. "28 January – 2 February 2018") with non-date cases; this spacing is not to be found at MOS:DASH for non-dates (see examples there, e.g. "Minneapolis–Saint Paul", and "Seifert–van Kampen theorem"). Next, we do not need "Republic of" in the names of any of these, since there's no ambiguity to resolve, and the North Ossetia–Alania main article isn't titled that way. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 12:37, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
PS: If you want to make a "well, Russia uses a hyphen" argument, let me stop you right there. See WP:OFFICIALNAME. WP isn't dictated to by officialese, especially transliterated officialese by non-native English speakers. We're not even dictated to by American and British journalism that substitutes hyphens for all en dashes in everything out of expediency. We have our own style guide, so apply it. If someone wants to change the style guide to use a spaced en dash between elements when one or more of them has its own space in it, then take that up at WT:MOS as a proposal; we don't change WP:P&G by engaging in WP:FAITACCOMPLI moves against what the P&G say. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 12:37, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
PPS: To the extent we might care, Encyclopædia Britannica uses " North Ossetia–Alania" (unspaced en dash). A decade-old presentation of Columbia Encyclopedia content at Bartleby.com in 2008 [6] was using an unspaced hyphen, but also was not using Unicode at all (e.g., it was using inline GIFs for IPA symbols, and did not provide the Cyrillic by any means), so it cannot be taken as legitimate on the question. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 23:07, 9 March 2019 (UTC)
The time zone is wrong, even the reference for the time zone explicitly says that North Ossetia-Alania is located in UTC+3 (Moscow Time), not UTC+4 (MSK+1). Though I can't seem to find the time zone in the infobox, therefore I can't correct the information. Could any more skilled and experienced user edit it, please?

It seems that North Ossetia (which redirects here) would be the WP:COMMONNAME. For example on Google Books I get about 4,000 results for North Ossetia–Alania and about 40,000 for North Ossetia (though this could also include results referring to the ASSR). Therefore I am wondering if there is any good reason to move the article (following a RM). Mellk ( talk) 19:22, 17 February 2023 (UTC)
A mistake was made within the borders of the Russian Federation. Crimea is not a territory of the Russian Federation. On March 27, 2014, the UN General Assembly adopted a resolution on the territorial integrity of Ukraine. 100 out of 193 UN member countries voted for the document, 11 voted against, 58 abstained. any change in the status of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea or the city of Sevastopol”. On July 2, 2014, the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly supported a draft resolution condemning the actions of the Russian Federation against Ukraine. 92 out of 323 delegates voted in favor of the relevant decision, 30 voted against, 27 abstained. during the voting, an amendment was adopted condemning the “occupation of the territory of Ukraine”, which, however, does not directly refer to Crimea. In the Declaration of Helsinki adopted on 9 July 2015, the OSCE PA condemned the “continued occupation of the Crimean peninsula by the Russian Federation”. Yeva000 ( talk) 15:45, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
