 * Great job! Thank you. I encourage you to add more contents, I will check. You'll be able to do a much better job when you understand how Russian works.
 * I haven't used the pronunciation module yet. There are things I'd like to add - parameterised variants. Gemination (long consonants) seems to be a big issue and other things. My head is spinning. Russian pronunciation is even less predictable than I thought. There are things that can be done, though. I just think maybe we should finish the merger first? There are many thousand Mandarin entries waiting for the new L2 header. It's easier to concentrate on complicated things like Russian pronunciation when this project is complete. What do you think? I will add new test cases piecemeal but I can't focus on it 100% right now. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 00:44, 3 June 2014 (UTC)


 * OK, I have restarted the bot - . Hopefully it's doing the right thing and it will be done soon! Wyang (talk) 02:09, 3 June 2014 (UTC)


 * Thanks. I thought you were more worried than me about the merger? Who wrote "My language has been murdered" (before)? :)--Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 02:30, 3 June 2014 (UTC)


 * I got caught up in the intricacies of Russian phonology, apparently. :p Wyang (talk) 03:29, 3 June 2014 (UTC)


 * I can only welcome your interest. :)
 * Russian may now be considered a "language of the enemy" (in the West), though, which is quite sad. It's no longer for tourists, investors, migrants but maybe for spies. :) I don't blame the West and I don't support Putin's policy at all. I used to defend Western excessive criticism, when it was obviously anti-Russian but now I don't like what's happening there and I'm fully with the Western position regarding the sanctions, etc, even though there are historical reasons for being attached to Crimea, for example, they don't justify invasion into a brotherly nation. --Anatoli (обсудить/вклад) 03:37, 3 June 2014 (UTC)


 * In comparison, the Russian language has always been received relatively well in China, though it was historically a lot more popular. My grandpa used to study Russian and worked as a translator for a while. My aunt did a PhD in Moscow under a government scholarship before returning to Shanghai to take up a professorial position. I don't know the full story behind Crimea, but from my encounters I had an impression of many non-Russian citizens self-identifying as Russians, although I might be sampling biasedly.
