196:. What I meant was that some votes were already visible before putting the ballot into the box, since some people did not fold their ballots so that their vote was readily visible to bystanders (as shown in several of the images of the Mashable source). This has little to do with the transparent boxes, but I think it's an important fact to add that secret voting was only optional, since it (unlike the boxes) contradicts democratic standards as I know them. (Also, the voting cabins were semi-transparent, apparently, further reducing secrecy.) -- 623: 21: 511:). It does not matter if you consider your revert supported by others or consistent with discussion on article talk page. Yes, I agree that your last edit was good. However, insertion of unsourced information is not vandalism, unless this is something like an obvious obscenity, and therefore is not exempt from 3RR. Happy editing, 363:
It's very uncommon (I've never seen a nickname field for a politician) so it should be well-sourced and notable. I think you'll find that most sources that mention it consider it an alleged nickname. Aksyonov himself disputes the nickname, arguing it was fabricated along with the criminal allegations
211:
If voting cabins were semi-transparent that should be added, no question. If some people did not fold their ballots that is their own choice. If envelopes had been available and some voters just chose not to use them it wouldn't be notable either. It sounded like the edit was belabouring the point.

I see you fact checking my source but I'd just like to tell you that if something is supported by one source but missing another tidbit not in it, I probably got it from the Kyiv Post daily log and just forgot to cite it. I'm sure the 'governor escaped' stuff is somewhere, virtually all of the text

images at two of the three polling stations shown (the third seems to have nontransparent ones). FWIW, I don't agree that "if some people did not fold their ballots that is their own choice". It can put significant societal pressure on any dissenters to "prove" they voted the "right" way; e.g. in

before removing content outright, add a tag or something to the sentence - that way other editors (ie, me) can double check it. I added all the content myself but its possible that I read 2 sources that were similar and inserted the one that missed the point you're looking for. I'll try to double

OK. I'm new to Knowledge so I'm sorry if I go about things the wrong way. I'll try to get your input before making any significant changes. I've found some useful information from that could be incorporated into the article. Regarding Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast, it reads, "On January 24, about 1,000

the GDR people were "expected" not to use the voting cabins, thereby removing the secrecy of the vote. At least in Germany, it IS forbidden to show your vote to anyone; I would have thought this was common in democratic countries. (But maybe we should discuss this at the article talk page...) --

The does state, "According to some, Chudnov fled through the back door of his office." which is what I thought the claim of escape was based on. I just didn't think it was strong enough support and I couldn't find any other sources on the matter. Perhaps the English translation was imperfect?

I don't want to add the "pressure" part to the article without a source, only the fact that several people voted openly, for which we have a (photographic) source. People can draw their own conclusions from this fact, which may be as different as ours here...
245:
In Czech Republic (my country), you will not be allowed to vote if you don't use a cabin, and a ballot, which is not in the official pre-stamped envelope, is invalid. (It would be nice to move this entire discussion to the article's talk page.) —

protesters held a vigil outside the building and demanded that the governor, Vasily Chudnova, resign, but he has thus far refused." which seems to imply that the governor was still in the regional administration building as of 24 January.

Even so, without a source that reports on concerns of 'societal pressure' as a result of the voting procedure/environment it is original research on our part to speculate about how Crimean voters might have felt. 695:, can you please explain what is the appropriate course of action if I believe a user has breached his sanctions for pages related to Eastern Europe. I apologize if I overlooked it but I could not find an answer at 840:.
