[edit] again ?

Article says : "In 1887, once again the Peoples Will planned the murder of Tsar Alexander III". When was the first time ? Jay 12:24, 16 Nov 2004 (UTC)

There's a line in Alexander III of Russia which says : "In 1887, once again the People's Will planned the murder of Tsar Alexander III". This line was added by an anon user. Wanted to know if it's known that they had planned attempts before; if so when was the first attempt ? Jay 21:50, 7 August 2005 (UTC)

It doesn't look like there were any attempts before, but that they planned it can hardly be doubted. They killed his father a few years prior and he took great care of personal safety, so they probably couldn't get to him earlier. Ornil 01:57, 8 August 2005 (UTC)

Then maybe what the anon meant by "once again" was the earlier assassination of Alexander II. I'll modify the article accordingly. Jay

[edit] Damnit

Some motherfucker defaced the article.

Fixed it. Kade 16:49, 29 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Hate when little kids pull that bullshit. List your reason why in the Discussion page!!!!!!!!!

[edit] a little fixing

I thumbnailed the picture of Alexander, it makes the article look better, in my opinion. --Kross 21:54, Apr 19, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] help

i need a 1 page report soon!!!!! what should i do

[edit] Vandalism

What's with the recent vandalism on this page, by more than one user? Did some other media source talk about Alexander III or Wikipedia recently? --70.143.43.245 15:21, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Genealogy

It's inappropriate to mislead people by suggesting that the ancestry as given is something other than a possibility. Therefore some indication of the fact that it is disputed must be included if it is included. All that remains is to decide what that indication will be. - Nunh-huh 02:52, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Anti-Reforms?

I believe there could have been much more detail involving Alexander III and his reforms. For example, there is no mention of increasing the power of the secret police in order to repress liberals and revolutionaries. There was a small mention of Russification and his aim to suppress the cultures of non-Russian peoples within the empire. Also, when talking about the persecution of the Jewish people, there is nothing about pogroms, or his restriction in their level of education and in the areas that they lived in. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.119.134.70 (talk) 06:59, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
