Dasha's death

From what I've read, Dasha was not aware that Masha died, and I haven't seen anything that says she refused to be separated in order to be saved, which is what the current text seems to imply. Would be nice to see a citation. Guinness man 23:39, 10 July 2006 (UTC)-- That part was written by the original author of this article. I have no information about their deaths. The book I have about them ends in Summer, 1998, when they were 48 years old. There are both photographs and a video about them on http://www.charonboat.com/item/167 Helenetoile (talk) 14:24, 12 August 2008 (UTC)Helene[reply]

Dates of death

Dates of death are inconsistent and contradictory in the article. I would fix it, but I have no idea as to which are the correct dates. Joseph A. Spadaro (talk) 06:21, 11 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Self-contradictory

In addition to the contradiction noted above, the article also says different things in different sections about what happened at the twins' birth ("The doctors told her she had delivered a mutant (урод) and she was not shown the babies." [...] "A night nurse brought the twins in to see their mother and let her hold them.") TSP (talk) 01:52, 5 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
