Founded by a dead guy?

edit

This article contradicts itself with the article about Georgiy_R._Gongadze. This newspaper is supposedly founded in 2001 and Gondadze died in 2000. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.98.196.2 (talk) 20:41, 27 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Currently (since July 2018) says 16 April 2000, "the day of the Ukarainian constitutional referendum". The correct (?) year, month, and reference to the referendum have been there since at latest January 2012. DavidLeeLambert (talk) 12:44, 14 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

Any relationship to the Russian Pravda?

edit

It would be useful with a comment about if there is any connection between the Ukrainian Pravda and the Pravda in Russia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.232.224.158 (talk) 16:37, 26 December 2014 (UTC)Reply

Any use as a tool of state propaganda ?

edit

I'm just curious here, since this article is really thin on information; the Russian / Soviet Pravda was/is used as a tool for state propaganda. Is there anything similar going on with this Ukranian Pravda? It would seem an odd choice for a name, given the negative connotations of the Soviet version unless perhaps it had been devised as a similar tool. Hypothesis with literally nothing to back that up... I wonder if anyone can enlighten me? I think if it is / has been known to be then it should be included in the article. If not, then the question can die here in the talk page ... which nobody seems to be reading/responding to given the 2 other comments are 11 years and 3+ years old.. 90.254.188.159 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 01:40, 5 March 2018 (UTC)Reply

Pravda means “truth” or “justice” in several Slavic languages. It is a common name for a paper, like Times, Enquirer, or Tribune in English. —Michael Z. 00:26, 15 April 2021 (UTC)Reply

Note to myself/or others..... This Wikipedia should have a "History" section

edit

This Wikipedia should have a "History" section. Just like the Wikipedia article on Der Spiegel (online). Unfortunately I do not have the time now for creating this section..... — Yulia Romero • Talk to me! 21:34, 26 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

Does this newspaper qualify as an RS? I assume that it was at the time of Gongadze. But how about right now? I ask because it is used for sourcing on page Roman Protasevich. My very best wishes (talk) 14:58, 27 May 2021 (UTC)Reply

Lacks neutral point of view

edit

This article is lacking the NPOV required by Wikipedia, as well as reliable citations, particularly in the History section. For example, this paragraph:

"Staff and contributors of Ukrainska Pravda have pioneered many legal and research techniques aimed at advancing freedom of information in Ukraine, particularly those concerning the government spending, government procurement and offshore tax evasion. Staff journalists routinely participate in non-partisan public actions promoting democracy and press freedom in the country." Whaledancer (talk) 18:36, 31 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

Explanation of the English name

edit

As per the official website, the "P" in "Pravda" is always capitalized. Ahri Boy (talk) 10:15, 25 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
