Add Atheism info box to all atheism related talk pages (use {{WikiProject Atheism}} or see

Ensure atheism-related articles are members of
Atheism by checking whether [[Category:Atheism]] has been added to atheism-related articles – and, where it hasn't, adding it.
Try to expand stubs. Ideas and theories about life, however, are prone to generating
neologisms, so some stubs may be suitable for deletion (see
deletion process).
State atheism needs a reassessment of its Importance level, as it has little to do with atheism and is instead an article about anti-theist/anti-religious actions of governments.

Unfortunately the article is not eligible for DYK as it is not newly-created, it was not expanded at least five times, and it wasn't promoted to Good Article status within the last seven days. In addition, no hook has actually been proposed.

Why are the leaders called "main leader"
Aren't they supposed to be called "Premier" of "Chairman"

Because the main leaders had various titles. Lenin was Premier, Stalin was General Secretary, etc.--

intro should highlight downfall of the soviet union
like for real; gorbachev sought to implement economic reforms. ok. but why? why is it not mentioned that the soviet economy at that point was in the gutter? And in the alinea after that it is stated that the soviet union was until its dissolution one of the scientifc advanced countries in the world? While they were a snail racing behind the horse that is science in the usa? That should be mentioned too in my opinion, an article about imperial germany should not read 'the imperial rulers always enjoyed support from the populance' cuz they did not, why does the intro highlight the economy and the science in the SU as something good while it stagnated during brezhnev or before that?

Wikipedia content is based on what
reliable sources say, not your personal perspective. Can you provide some such sources for your views?

On the infobox's symbols.
You know how the
RSFSR's Wikipedia page has both the 1st and last symbols from the RSFSR? Why not do that for the USSR? I mean, it had 5 flag changes, which is beyond too much, why not have both the 1922-1923 flag/coat of arms, and the 1955-1991 flag/coat of arms?

need to mention why the SU made a pact with nazi Germany. It was in order to split Poland and get revenge for the last Polish Russian conflict in early 1920.
