==The trial==
I added: "Right now a trail in [[Kiev]] is taken place, two policeman ar charged with killing [[Georgiy Gongadze]].", that is true right? I must admit the case has become a bit confusing for me... [[User:Mariah-Yulia|Mariah-Yulia]] 23:16, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
:Please do not add directly to article things about which you are not sure yourself whether they are right. In such cases, raise the issue at talk. --[[User:Irpen|Irpen]] 00:41, 13 February 2006 (UTC)
:: You are right (again ;)) but this time I looked it up (sourse: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/4593938.stm), it's all correct now, unless the BBC lied about it, but I don't believe that. [[User:Mariah-Yulia|Mariah-Yulia]] 02:34, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

I think maybe a Georgian version of spelling his name might help.
== Reporters killed in Ukraine ==
Guys, this section is a little bit irrelevant here. Just make a new article or section of a new article, and link them from here. BTW, if you tried to establish context for this article, this may be wrong. To the best of my professional knowledge, Gongadze's case is a kind of exception. See, dozens of journalists in Ukraine were killed, assaulted or expelled. But only Gongadze's fate has been noticed, despite the fact that he was neither most critical to Kuchma nor best known. I think he was just a "random" victim for a provokation.[[User:AlexPU|AlexPU]] 21:36, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
:You are welcome to make a new article, and move the text there. I have had several [[User_talk:Travb/Archive_6#Deleted_pages_which_I_created|new articles deleted]], so I am always hesitant to make them.[[User:Travb|Travb]] ([[User talk:Travb|talk]]) 01:52, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
:*I too would make a new article - and then one about each of these journalists individually. Then have a template at the bottom of each article with all their names included plus date of death. [[User:Malick78|Malick78]] ([[User talk:Malick78|talk]]) 17:18, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
==Timeline==
I wrote a paper for my IR class about the Gongadze scandal, with a very heavily reseached timeline. I was thinking of maybe creating a timeline on this page, similar to the [[Business_Plot#Timeline_of_events]] timeline I helped make. What do you all think?

== Spelling of Kyiv ==
I changed the Russian spelling of Kiev to the proper internationally recognized Ukrainian spelling of Kyiv. -mjw
== Article Neutrality ==
Section 'Crises and controversy' reads:
<blockquote>
[...] that the murder had been solved—it was attributed to a random act of violence committed by two "hooligans" with links to a gangster called "Cyclops". ''Conveniently'', both of the killers were said to now be dead. [...]
</blockquote>Suggest changing the last sentence to:
<blockquote>
Both of the killers were said to now be dead.

the article should be split into the biography article (namely this one), and the much lengthy, current-event [[Murder of Georgiy Gongadze]].[[Special:Contributions/95.133.187.192|95.133.187.192]] ([[User talk:95.133.187.192|talk]]) 15:53, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

This was moved to [[Heorhii Gongadze]] because it is the "official transliteration". But "Georgiy Gongadze" looks to be the [[WP:COMMONNAME]]. At least this should be discussed first.
