Old talk
I reverted insertion of picture which claimed that it was showing Azerbaijani soldiers of SS, while in fact it were "Muslim volunteers in German army in Berlin" [1] --Grandmaster 11:57, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Proposed move to Azerbaijan Soviet Socialist Republic
It seems that given that the formal name for this nation was "Azerbaijan Soviet Socialist Republic", the soviet prefix abbreviation (-"SSR") shouldn't be in the full article name. Therefore, I propose to move the article to its full form, Azerbaijan Soviet Socialist Republic. We wouldn't have an article about North Korea titled "DPRK", would we? --Micahbrwn (talk) 09:52, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
- The move makes sense, but should be synchronized with the titles of the other 14 articles about Soviet republics. If we move one, we need to move them all. Grandmaster (talk) 12:48, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

Azerbaijan/Azerbaidzhan?
Obviously, "Azerbaijan" is the correct transcription now (and should have been then), but during the Soviet period the usual spelling in English-language sources was the transliteration from the Cyrillic, "Azerbaidzhan". Should this article not therefore use the spelling "Azerbaidzhan" with reference to the S.S.R., so as not to be anachronistic? RandomCritic (talk) 01:50, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
- @RandomCritic: welcome to the future! my 2 cents (that was a lot of money 11 years ago) :
- the common spelling then may be worth mentioning in the article, but what should be used in the article is the common spelling now with regard to then.
- An analogy: Romania in World War II is not called Rumania in World War II. At the time of the war, English sources preferred a U, but modern English historians of the war spell it with O.
- In any case, Google Ngram Viewer suggests that DZH was never as common as J.

Article editing
There are certain users who have been editing other SSR articles on Wikipedia for the past year, by stating that the soviet republics existed until the adoption of their new constitutions in the mid-1990s.
Azerbaijan SSR declared itself independent and changed its name to the
Artsakh?
Why is there not even a mention of Artsakh or the associated dispute? 61.3.177.49 (talk) 11:37, 23 August 2020 (UTC)

Padronização das páginas Sobre as Repúblicas Soviéticas
Em minha opinião para facilitar o entendimento deveríamos padronizar as páginas sobre as Repúblicas Soviéticas (RSS) já que muitas delas tem o cargo de Primeiro Secretário (líder de facto da República) junto com o cargo de Presidente do Presidium ("Presidente da República") algo que não acontece em outras páginas sobre as Repúblicas Soviéticas, por exemplo na página sobre a RSS Ucrâniana temos os Cargos de Primeiro Secretário do Partido Comunista Ucraniano separado do Cargo de Presidente do Presidium (Chefe de Estado).
