Talk:Joseph Stalin
== Josif Stalin ==

His actual first name is not Josef nor Joseph. It is russian version of these 2; Josif.
:That may be his [[Russian language]] name (or more accurately the Russian translation of his [[Georgian language]] name), but ''this is an [[English language]] Wikipedia''. According to [[en:Wikipedia:Naming conventions (common names)]] it should be at the most commonly used name in the English language, which is ''[[Joseph Stalin]], like it is on EN [[en:Joseph Stalin]] (Josif=18,000 hits[http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=%22Josif+Stalin%22&btnG=Search], Joseph=863,000[http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=%22Joseph+Stalin%22&btnG=Search], with Josef in between).

== [[Holodomor]] ==
what rubbish: "He also made a famine in Ukraine, and many people died."

:Maybe there should be some mention that a Nazi AND Nazi financed author wrote the statement about the so called "Ukraine" famine. Which also was a tasty nugget used for American propaganda.

Is the museum dedicated to Holodomor, with documents confirming government's involvement and many photos capturing it's horrors, in your mind also run and financed by Nazis? And what about every 90+ y/o person born and raised in Ukrainian country side sharing very similar stories about the lack of food like never before?

==Stalin as Leader==

The first sentence on the page, "Stalin was the leader of the Soviet Union from 1922 until his death." is not accurate. From the point where he joined the Politburo - I don't remember what year that was but I _think_ it was 1918, although it may well have been earlier by a few years - Stalin was _a_ leader of the Soviet Union but he functioned in a relatively collegial atmosphere among other Bolshevik luminaries like Zinoviev, Lunacharsky, Trotsky, Bukharin and several others. Lenin, until (contracted; show full)

It is very sad that a Wikipedia article is so heavily sabotaged.
