At the moment, Red Gate is this article and Red Gates redirects here...but since the structure was called Red Gates shouldn't it be the other way around? --Syrthiss 19:05, 6 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

To all those linking demolition of Red Gates to Lazar Kaganovich. Please take your time and compare the dates of destruction with Lazar's bio. You'll see that at that time he was stationed in Kharkiv and had other things to do... many things, but not this one. NVO 14:16, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The usage of "Redgate" is under discussion, see Talk:Redgate (company) -- 65.94.40.137 (talk) 06:09, 9 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest that the Red Gate#Background section be split off into a separate article. It's really too much to have a history of Russian triumphal arches in this article. And we do not have an overview article for the category Category:Triumphal arches in Russia. The other Russian triumphal arch articles do not feature such a large background section, and it isn't necessary in this article. Instead a central article can serve as the background to all the Russian arches articles -- 65.94.40.137 (talk) 06:18, 9 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

• Support I am the nominator -- 65.94.40.137 (talk) 06:18, 9 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• As yet I see no need for the split, since the existing material covers only the early 18th-century arches, i.e. the very limited period preceding the Red Gate. There is nothing about post-1750 triumphal arches. --Ghirla^-трёп- 08:47, 12 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • It is inappropriate to host such material in this article, so if it isn't to be split off to a separate article, it should be deleted, since it doesn't really relate to the topic of this article, therefore should not be in this article. Further WP:NOTFINISHED, just because it doesn't contain post-1750 material at the time it is split off does not mean it will never do so, or that the starting point of a new article has to be WP:COMPLETE. This is wikipedia, not a paper encyclopedia, we don't have to be complete the moment something goes live. -- 65.94.40.137 (talk) 11:31, 12 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Nothing prevents us from expansion during/after split. -M.Altenmann >t 20:08, 15 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
• Support. So, who is up to the job? -M.Altenmann >t 20:06, 15 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion

Any additional comments:

• Comment Narva Triumphal Arch in St. Petersburg is the only article in the category Category:Triumphal arches in Russia not in Moscow, so talking about gates in Russia seems premature.--DThomsen8 (talk) 00:45, 23 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Why is that? Al long as there are sources which discuss the general, we can not only talk, but also write an article. -M.Altenmann >t 20:12, 15 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

This article had the tag((copy edit|reason= the use of "Red Gate" v "Red Gates" has been at odds with each other since 2005; see multiple discussions on the talk page|date=January 2015)), now removed. Copyediting is not the proper remedy for the problem.--DThomsen8 (talk) 01:23, 24 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
