This article needs some work. For one, there seem to be two seperate articles that contradict each other, seperated by a gallery that should be edited and/or interspersed and/or moved to the end. Axeman89 06:04, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Is some kind of vandalism going on?

After a very difficult effort at finding the more-famous and more Russian-looking 1800s-dated Cathedral of Saints Peter and Paul in St. Petersburg, I typed the comment below into the Talk-Page for that article. As of the date I'm typing, my Comment is the ONLY thing on that talk-page. I suspect that the article and talk-page have been deleted and re-started a few times?

QUOTE: Someone has worked with extreme vigor to make it impossible to find this Cathedral in Wikipedia. According to the Russian text naming this church, the English title of this page should have the word "Saint" or the word "Saints" in it. Why doesn't it? The disambiguation-page for "Cathedral of Saints Peter and Paul" does not list this cathedral. There's no "not to be confused with ..." referring to THIS Cathedral of Saints Peter and Paul in the Wikipedia article on St. Petersburg's other Cathedral of Saints Peter and Paul. This Cathedral isn't mentioned in the Wikipedia article on Petergof/Peterhof. This article has only ONE photograph and TWO paragraphs, which is unusual for such a cathedral as this. Someone is trying very hard to hide this Cathedral and make sure that only the OTHER Peter/Paul Cathedral in St. Petersburg can be found by Wikipedia readers. There IS, at the END of the first paragraph in the article on the Peter/Paul Cathedral, a statement that THIS CATHEDRAL also exists, but none of the text in that sentence is blue-underlined hot-linked to THIS article. Why not? And why isn't that made clear with a "not to be confused with" at the top? Furthermore, the Russian text of the article on the OTHER (1700s) Peter/Paul Cathedral indicates that the Russian name does NOT include "Saints". So why efforts to find "Cathedral of SAINTS Peter and Paul St. Petersburg" lead ONLY to that OTHER Cathedral? Why doesn't a search for Peter/Paul churches in St. Petersburg take a reader to a disambiguation-page where both churches and both articles are detailed? How can this NOT be a deliberate effort to ensure that THIS Cathedral is hidden from readers? UNQUOTE

I really do think there is vandalism going on here, a vigorous attempt to make it impossible to find the OTHER (1800s) Cathedral of Saints Peter and Paul, for the reasons stated above (absence of "Saint" in the Russian-text name of THIS Cathedral while it's present in the Russian-text name of the 1800s one, absence of "Not to be confused with ..." statement near the beginning of this article, absence of hot-links to the article on the 1800s Cathedral in the sentence "There is another Cathedral of Saints Peter and Paul Church in St. Petersburg, located in Petergof" which I suspect has escaped deletion by the vandal ONLY because some other editor hid this sentence at the bottom of the first paragraph, no mention of the 1800s Peter/Paul cathedral in the article on Petergof/Peterhof, no listing of the 1800s Peter/Paul Cathedral in the disambiguation-page for all Peter/Paul Cathedrals, no disambiguation pertaining ONLY to the two Peter/Paul Cathedrals located in St. Petersburg). Someone's being very thorough and vandalizing this page, the page for the 1800s Cathedral (removal of "Saint" from the 1800s Cathedral's article's title and including "Saint" here although the Russian text suggests that's not accurate), and vandalizing the disambiguation-page for all Peter/Paul Cathedrals, and possibly deleting a lot of photos and paragraphs from the article on the 1800s Cathedral (which is unbelievably sparse) to make sure that people get the wrong (1700s) Cathedral if they're trying to find the 1800s one.2600:1700:6759:B000:1C64:8308:33BC:E2D6 (talk) 21:17, 26 October 2023 (UTC)Christopher Lawrence Simpson[reply]
