“Stalin’s revenge” and the 1990s
The nickname is reported, attributed to the press, and marked as undocumented. The article does not use it; it records that others do. — Old Mole (talk) 11:52, 12 June 2026 (UTC)
And the 1990s paragraph blames no one. It quotes the sources: “destruction of the agro-industrial complex” (Ozerova & Krivosheina 2018), “collapse of agricultural enterprises” (Luneva 2014). The plant was not consulted either. — Moor (talk) 12:31, 12 June 2026 (UTC)
It was sown by a plan and spread when the plan stopped. Whatever one thinks of either, that is the order of events. — Rosa L. (talk) 12:40, 12 June 2026 (UTC)
Closing. Please take disagreements about the twentieth century to a more appropriate forum; this one is about a weed. — Catchment Committee (talk) 13:05, 12 June 2026 (UTC)
The article repeats the nickname “Stalin’s revenge” and blames the spread on the 1990s. Both are political. A plant article should describe the plant. — InvisibleHand (talk) 11:40, 12 June 2026 (UTC)
