Poor sourcing on the current articles, a lot of pre-2000 and indeed pre-1990 material being used. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.123.149.103 (talk) 11:20, 8 April 2013 (UTC)
WWII aftermath/Cold War
editThis article has a section called 'After World War II', followed by one called 'Cold War'. I propose to remove Cold War material from the section that precedes the 'Cold War' section. If anyone wants to put it in the 'Cold War' section, they're free to do so. It would certainly be a more logical home for it. Alfie Gandon (talk) 13:39, 10 March 2017 (UTC)
- I disagree. This was already discussed on your talk page. Not only are you removing relevant, sourced content, but you are damaging the layout and templates of the article per this edit. --Iryna Harpy (talk) 20:20, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
- Not discussed enough to my satisfaction. I don't understand why you want to have material related to late in the Cold War in a section to do with the immediate aftermath of World War II, especially when the latter is followed by a section named 'Cold War'. Your other changes are fine, I've no problem with those being put back in. Alfie Gandon (talk) 20:02, 16 March 2017 (UTC)
Slightly misleading
editThe article states the Soviet Army as being only the ground forces part of the Soviet Armed Forces (as e. g. the United States Army is in case of USA). One should notice that also Strategic Rocket Forces, Air Forces and Air Defense Forces formed parts of the Soviet Army, so that the term Soviet Army embraces a brider specter than only Ground forces. --129.187.244.28 (talk) 06:59, 21 March 2017 (UTC)
Wrong link for a CINC of the Soviet Ground Forces
editThe Ivan Pavlovsky link leads to the Wikipedia page of a Belorussian gymnast instead of an article about the CINC of that time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.119.112.3 (talk) 03:52, 24 September 2019 (UTC)
- Fixed Thank you for pointing that out. I've de-linked Pavlovsky. Iryna Harpy (talk) 03:30, 4 January 2020 (UTC)
Equipment numbers c1990
editDear Kges1901 currently we have an unreliable source (Globalsecurity.org) and an unsourced list of equipment c1990. Have you seen from the later Soviet/Russian sources after 1990 any more reliable listings of total numbers of equipment anywhere? Buckshot06 (talk) 22:52, 27 April 2022 (UTC)
- Parts of the globalsecurity list are drawn from the 1990 CFE data. I have not found more reliable data but total equipment numbers are not really my area of focus. The 1990 CFE data seems adequate for total numbers, however, and numbers that are not based on estimates might not be public. Kges1901 (talk) 23:36, 27 April 2022 (UTC)
- An authoritative official source for the detailed 1990 CFE declaration lists, not hosted on Globalsecurity, would be just fine. If you know / can point to one, I will replace all the GS references. Buckshot06 (talk) 01:07, 28 April 2022 (UTC)

Banner
editUnlike marines and air force, Soviet ground forces did not have official banner [1]. Various army units did have their banners, such as the one in the image. - Altenmann >talk 00:36, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
