[edit] Cleanup

This page needs better paragraphing. A picture would also be nice. JDH Owens talk | Esperanza 20:18, 6 October 2005 (UTC)

The removal of the term "Soviet" in favor of using "USSR" seems a bit revisionist, especially in the sentences referring to the burials from 1917-1922. The USSR was formed in 1922, but the Soviets (councils) existed from the start of the revlution. Smallbones 20:19, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Complete List

Is there anyway of getting a complete list of the people buried here? Obviously this would exclude the mass burial graves and maybe the ashes in urns.

The Russian version of this article includes a list of people buried in the wall. Camptown 18:24, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Brezhnev and Zhukov?

The article here states that Georgy Zhukov is buried here, yet in the list at the bottom, Lenoid Brezhnev is listed...which is correct? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 209.244.189.22 (talk) 23:35, 6 March 2007 (UTC).

Yes, Brezhnev's coffin was lowered to the grave on November 15th 1982. Zhukov is also buried here. Superzohar Talk 21:14, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Picture of funeral

It will be very nice to put a picture of one of the soviet funerals of Brezhnev or Suslov or Andropov or others. Superzohar Talk 21:16, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
