[edit] Transliterated name

Zelinsky is far most used than Zelinskiy (as with “Zelinsky Institute of Organic Chemistry” and “Zelinskiy Institute of Organic Chemistry”); there is also the Hell-Volhard-Zelinsky reaction.

However, curiously, the moon crater, named in his honor, is spelled Zelinskiy in the nomenclatures; so, I didn't rename the article Zelinskiy (crater). --Juiced lemon 16:14, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
