The Cyrillic alphabet nav box is there to link to every article about a Cyrillic letter. The article about the four yus letters is linked from the four letters. Linking “Ѧ” to Я removes a letter, and adds a redundant link.

If you feel that Я and Ѧ deserve to be merged into a single article, which might be a good idea, then I suggest you propose the merge. Michael  Z. 2009-01-27 17:18 z

I agree that there needs to be more written about these, and I see that you're doing a lot to fill in the gaps. Yes, separate articles for big and little yus.
But in my view, the name of a thing in a navbox should link to the main article about the thing, to avoid confusing the reader or having him miss important information. Of course if the articles are interrelated, they should also prominently link to each other with “main article” and “see also” links.
By the way, see WP:CYR for our standard transliteration. I believe that in article content the spelling yus should be used, not ius or jus, but of course common alternative spellings should be mentioned. And so far we have been using iotated, I suppose from the name of the Greek letter iotaMichael  Z. 2009-01-27 17:44 z

Leuchtenbergia principis: Which further research, Лудольф?

The fact, that Eugène de Beauharnais ("Prince" of Leuchtenberg) died before the plant was named, is no reason. If you give a plant or a an animal a name in classification, the person, who is honored, must not be alive. If the person is not born - that would be a reason ... ;-)

Which further research of you shows, that Leuchtenbergia is named after Maximilian J. A. N. Leuchtenberg (1817 - 1852) and not after Eugène de Beauharnais, "Prince" of Leuchtenberg?

In the Web and in the literature you can find both versions. Only to find one or several references then is not enough.

Who knows the right eponym from fundamental research? For example in "William Jackson Hooker: Leuchtenbergia principis, The Botanical Magazine: 4393, 1848", who has the chance to have a look in this first description of HOOKER? And the one who named this cactus as Leuchtenbergia was not Sir William Jackson Hooker (he made the original description of Leuchtenbergia principis), but Ernst Ludwig von Fischer (1782-1854), director of the botanical garden St. Petersburg, he named the Leuchtenbergia before the description of Hooker. Who has access to what he wrote then?

And after whom the Leuchtenbergia is named from Ernst Ludwig von Fischer? After Eugène de Beauharnais or after his son Maximilian? Who can mention here the right source?

The corrections were appropriate. The errors were mine. Thanks. :) AppaAliApsa ( talk) 09:45, 18 March 2009 (UTC) reply

jat

So you simply deleted a bunch of content, hoping that someone in the future will create a page dealing with jat in a historical-phonology sense, merging it with the content "preserved" in the article history? Brilliant, I must say. -- Ivan Štambuk ( talk) 16:40, 17 May 2009 (UTC) reply

Disambiguation link notification for April 4

Hi. When you recently edited Global spread of the printing press, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ivan Fedorov ( check to confirm |  fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
