atitarev Posted February 3, 2008 at 10:56 AM Report Share Posted February 3, 2008 at 10:56 AM Hello, Please check my new Wikipedia article with a List of Chinese exonyms for places in Russia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Chinese_exonyms_for_places_in_Russia It is better formatted than my previous page with a List of Chinese exonyms for places in Japan http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Chinese_exonyms_for_places_in_Japan. If you spot an incorrect transliteration or character used, please let me know. You don't need to know Russian but if you wonder, the English transliteration chosen was more phonetic, especially the use of ' (apostrophe) for letter "ь". I am also looking for someone to publish a copy in the Chinese Wikipedia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atitarev Posted February 4, 2008 at 04:42 AM Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 at 04:42 AM I made a few nice changes to the page. 1. This page contains only one table at the moment but I made it a separate section, more small tables to come. 2. Added links for each city/town in the English column. 3. Categorised and added see also links. To do - comments on transliteration. Add region (oblast') names where they are different from the centre (e.g. Yekaterinburg - Sverdlov), autonomous republics - Tatarstan, Chuvashia, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My page shows short names, not the full official names to show how names are transliterated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atitarev Posted March 13, 2008 at 09:41 AM Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 at 09:41 AM Thanks. The names match. I provide extra info on how the Chinese names are pronounced and their original Russian spellings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
