Wouldn't this fit better within the Vladimir I article? That seems to be how it is done for every other biography of a medieval monarch. I know this is pretty long but it would be far more useful for everyone if it the information was not separated like this. Adam Bishop 17:16, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

Adam, I strongly disagree. I wrote it to be a separate article in its own right. This article is two times longer than the article on Vladimir himself. Merging would completely overwhelm Vladimir's personality and doings with obscure details of his family life. --Ghirlandajo 17:34, 15 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] The wife concept

According to most common conceptions and laws there is only one wife to a man. Since this article mentions several wifes it has to be more specific with what it means. Alternatively avoid the term wife. Davidjonsson (talk) 17:10, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Dear David, you answered himself. "Most conceptions" are not "all conceptions"! Don't judge ancient, mostly pagans, Slavic rulers from today point of view. Yopie 01:34, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
