It was requested that this article be renamed but there was no consensus for it to be moved. violet/riga (t) 19:26, 18 July 2005 (UTC)

there are two kinds of oblasts, the big one and the small one. big one would be like region small one like province. The old okrug would also be province. But as far as I see, oblasts are generally translated as regions. Therefore I favor to call them all X Region Tobias Conradi 22:10, 7 Mar 2005 (UTC)
I just have to say this... the plural of "oblast" is now "oblasts"? Do you have any idea how awkward that sounds? Then again, "oblasti" probably wouldn't be the height of clarity either ;) ObsidianOrder 10:23, 16 July 2005 (UTC)
Since it has been decided that "oblast" will not be translated in this article title, how about moving the oblast articles from where they are now ("X Province") to "X Oblast"? Markussep 14:41, 8 September 2005 (UTC)
oppose. yes it is inconsistent. but the pro arguments to use Oblast in english WP where not that strong. No need to move back and forth. Of course in the longer run this should be solved. We dont use "X Kreis". So why "X Oblast"? Tobias Conradi (Talk) 22:47, 30 September 2005 (UTC)
* strong oppose. the discussion you cited and what you call "it was decided" was only a 3:2 decision. That's nothing with respect to move 28 or so articles. This is english WP. Don't look at it from a slavo-centric point. Even if I am german, since I am 12 I know what oblasts are. But the general audience will, as I assume, not know this. They can learn it, but no need to have this in article title. Tobias Conradi (Talk) 13:28, 1 October 2005 (UTC)
Because the main wikitable is sortable by population, etc. I removed the other static (and redundant) tables - if a user needs to sort by a topic, they can simply sort that column now. I also removed the redundant list of the provinces since the list is in the wikitable... cleaned up the article. On to adding the municipalities now... :) Rarelibra 13:19, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
A new law was passed on 15 May 2008 for new subdivisions of BG, however, ostensibly only for "statistical" purposes. It is called the "Regional Development Act" (note: "regional" here does NOT refer to the administrative regions/provinces, but generally).
