Under the sub-heading "2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine" in the "History" section, the see-also article name is outdated. (It is now year 2025 in Ukraine). Please change it from "2022-2023 Dnipro missile strikes" to "Dnipro strikes (2022–present)", the current name of the linked article. Thanks. Redbeansoup (talk) 03:00, 1 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Former Name

Please change

Dnipro[a] is Ukraine's fourth-largest city

To

Dnipro[a], formerly Dnipropetrovsk is Ukraine's fourth-largest city

Or

Dnipro[a], formerly Dnipropetrovsk and Yekaterinoslav is Ukraine's fourth-largest city

There are still a ton of links to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yekaterinoslav. I think the connection between these names should therefore be in the first paragraph.

Yes: There were other names since the city became important ~1800. Especially Yekaterinoslav but people who are reading sources from that time do not come here and stop reading after the first paragraph to get a brief overlook. Also sources from 1800 usually do not link to Wikipedia. --Fabiwanne (talk) 03:12, 28 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
