As the article on Kamianets-Podilskyi clearly indicates, the city has long been part of the Russian Empire when Sirota was born. To state that he was born in Poland is obviously wrong. Therefore I have restored the earlier and historically correct version. --Catgut (talk) 08:32, 15 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: QPQ won't be coming until Thursday. Currently away from my home desktop PC and my tiny little fingers get worn out fast doing all this on a phone! Expansion and improvement not yet completed, but figured it was best to submit this DYK now before the window closed. Again, mobile phone not an ideal medium for a large-scale project like this. At the moment the article has been expanded just over 5x; by the time I'll be done, it may be as large as 10x. But that won't happen until at least this weekend. Until then… Done!
Ping me once you have QPQ done and I'll pass this. Grnrchst (talk) 16:21, 21 February 2023 (UTC)
Ok, passed! --Grnrchst (talk) 08:49, 27 February 2023 (UTC)
