![]() | On 15 December 2021, it was proposed that this article be moved to Pridnestrovie. The result of the discussion was not moved. |
This article was written by completely engaged and biased editors who have prejudices against Pridnestrovie. There is nothing resembling a neutral point of view here, right down to the title of the article (Transnistria), which is a dirty political insult to Pridnestrovie, not its name. I believe it needs to be removed. 2A03:F680:FE04:20E1:F404:CF37:C4DC:DEC8 ( talk) 11:14, 13 December 2023 (UTC)
Thanks for your adequate assessment of this absurdity, friend! But this article is an excellent example of how Wikipedia has become an exclusively propaganda tool, and a very crude one at that. This stream of insults against Pridnestrovie is necessary precisely for edifying purposes, to demonstrate to people what this website has become ( here, for example, is a good use case). Local politized provocateurs are doing much more harm to Wikipedia with this article than to Pridnestrovie, so I'm not sure there's any need to be outraged by these insults. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.19.215.86 ( talk) 16:35, 9 April 2024 (UTC)
I would like to see something about the history of the area before 1939. Now it starts at that date. 2001:4C3C:DE00:A700:E9C9:5961:6918:7BA8 ( talk) 19:44, 1 March 2024 (UTC)
Why do we use Romanian/R.Moldovan designations for Romanian-language designators of things in Transnistria as opposed to Transnistrian ones (e.g. Flag of Transnistria is given as Steagul Transnistriei instead of Steagul Nistrean or Steagul Nistreniei)? Since we are giving names in the three official languages - surely it is more correct to use more official designations. Thought I should try to establish a consensus here before pushing anything myself. Bayonet-lightbulb ( talk) 05:48, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
Hello, I was looking over various countries' water area and was unable to find any official metric for Transnistria, so I was surprised to find that this Wikipedia did list a water percentage. However, looking over the article's history, this metric seems to just have come from some random person who added up the "listed area" of the biggest lakes. This doesn't seem like a proper source of information and it likely is inaccurate, since the "listed area" is often not perennial water area and it fails to account for smaller bodies of water, such as rivers (which can contribute to a substantial amount of water area).
Has revising this value been considered? Or is it just kept for archival reasons? 99.64.160.215 ( talk) 23:55, 30 June 2024 (UTC)
