[edit] 1989 Census

Oh, c'mon, be positive :) It's not an edit war, it's an improvement process. I do, however, admit that I forgot that the particular spreadsheet being referenced also contains the 1989 data (because the original data sheets in Russian I am used to working with only contain the 2002 data), so you were correct to move the reference back. As for the 1989 Census being "unnotable", that is absolutely not the case. The 1989 Census was the last one done in the Soviet Union, and, coupled with the 2002 Census (which was the first one conducted in the Russian Federation after the break-up of the USSR), it provides a very good picture of the population trends over this important period in history. It is citable, too; I just did not have access to my bookmarks at the time I made the edit. If you need the 1989 Census numbers referenced elsewhere, let me know.
