Rules for editing the map A reliable source for that specific edit should be provided. A well-known source that has a reputation for neutral (not biased) territorial control coverage, can be used (is deemed reliable) for all edits. A well-known source that does not have a reputation for neutral (not biased) territorial control coverage, can be used (is deemed reliable) only for edits that are unfavorable to the side it prefers (favorable to the side it opposes). A source that is not well-known (or that has proven inaccurate for all edits) cannot be used (is deemed unreliable) for any edit. This includes all maps (see item 2. next). Do not put source URLs in edit summaries. The references at Territorial control during the Russo-Ukrainian War must be updated before the map is edited. Copying from maps is strictly prohibited. Maps from mainstream media are approximate and therefore unreliable for any edit. Maps from amateur sources are below the standards of Wikipedia for any edit. They violate WP:SPS and WP:CIRCULAR. WP:SPS: "Anyone can create a personal web page, self-publish a book, or claim to be an expert. That is why self-published material, such as books, patents, newsletters, personal websites, open wikis, personal or group blogs, Internet forum postings, and tweets, are largely not acceptable as sources." WP:CIRCULAR: "Do not use websites that mirror Wikipedia content or publications that rely on material from Wikipedia as sources." See also: Wikipedia:Top 10 reasons why copying from maps is strictly prohibited on the Wikipedia Syria war map WP:POV pushing and intentional misinterpretation of sources will not be tolerated. If you are not sure what the source is saying (or its reliability), post it on the talk page first so that it will be discussed. See also: Wikipedia:Top 10 myths about the Wikipedia Syria war map

• Kindrativka entry has a typo, should be 'Sumy Oblast' instead of current 'Sumy Oblat'
• Komar entry does not list oblast, should be 'Komar, Donetsk Oblast' instead of current 'Komar, Ukraine' RocketsFallOnRocketFalls (talk) 03:53, 3 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

maybe fix the obvious Pro-Ukrainian bias in this article and others next? Just a suggestion of course... 2601:46:880:ED00:9584:40F2:78FE:86ED (talk) 12:39, 23 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

A strange comment given that in this specific article there is very little room for any possible bias. SaintPaulOfTarsus (talk) (contributions) 13:38, 23 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Deep State reports that Russia captured Kamianske while Ukrainian Armed Forces deny it and ISW doesn't take a clear position. What do you think should we do; XANTHO GENOS 5.5.2024 (talk) 19:50, 1 August 2025 (UTC)Reply

was Pivnichne, removed from the list with the Donetsk Oblast?

Latest comment: 24 days ago1 comment1 person in discussion

I had a list of the larger cities in Donetsk and three in the Bakhmut region

Toretsk 30,914 Bakhmut

Chasiv Yar 12,557 Bakhmut

Pivnichne 9,024 Bakhmut

did someone edit the list and accidently remove a city by mistake? 2604:3D08:9B77:AB00:159C:EC96:7226:E5D3 (talk) 06:21, 8 August 2025 (UTC)Reply
