Hmm, tried to fix ‹The templateCat is being considered for merging.›Category:Aircraft by country alpha sort, so everything wasn't under "Aircraft" and that worked ok, see this edit. Then I got cocky and figured I would fix some of the countries which were sorted to include "the" because of the ((nation)) parameter, see Czech, Netherlands, UK, US. Which fixed my original cat alpha sort problem, but then completely redlinked [[:Category:Aviation in <nation>]] which needed the the to be there. So, in the spirit of WP:Was Being Bold But Now I'm Over My Head, I have stopped and asked for help. :) Thx. — MrDolomite | Talk15:34, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
'Soviet Union and CIS', 'Soviet and Russian'[edit]
What’s the deal with these? The CIS is not Russia, it is Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova (suspended participation), Russia, Tajikistan
and Uzbekistan. The Soviet Union and Russia are not the same sovereign state (the USSR ceased to exist in December 1991, and shortly thereafter one of its republics, the RSFSR, was renamed Russian Federation). Soviet aircraft were manufactured in both Russia and Ukraine (maybe elsewhere, I dunno).
