Talk:Nikolai Ivanovich Lobachevsky

Is it -skii or -sky? It should be uniform throughout the article, but I don't want to step on feet by changing all of these. Dysprosia 04:22, 8 Nov 2003 (UTC)
Much of this article seems directly copied from [1] (http://www-gap.dcs.st-and.ac.uk/~history/Mathematicians/Lobachevsky.html). I am not familiar with our policies on plagiarism, but this really ought to be checked out. - Crenner 00:11, 1 Apr 2004 (UTC)
- Wikipedians have asked them for permissions to copy in past (for biographies of other mathematicians) and we got a clear "no". We will have to rewrite the article. Andris 17:05, May 9, 2004 (UTC)
-sky is more correct
