Article importance promoted to high as he had a large impact on the development of the life support and flight rescue systems across the XX century. --Yuriy Lapitskiy ~ 18:09, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

should be Gay under

Em, he was not gay (Гей), but Guy (Гай). We may write it Gaii or like in Latin - Gaius, if ya' wish. Or, at least, Gai. I thought about that when I created this article and I insist on "Guy", because it's the closest spelling to Russian "Гай". --Yuriy Lapitskiy ~ 22:27, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No! Gai is a road policy in Russia:) --Paukrus (talk) 08:24, 8 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Then Gaii, it's not a road police. --Yuriy Lapitskiy ~ 08:31, 8 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No! Gaii is Гаии. It's only coincidence. No any assotiation for "гей".--Paukrus (talk) 09:18, 8 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Gaii or Gaius is Latin, learn

Latin. Gay is Гей. Dot. --Yuriy Lapitskiy ~ 10:26, 8 February 2008 (UTC)[reply

Гай=Gay. Г=G, А=A, Й=Y. Learn

Russian Language. Sorry for assotiations with homosexualism. --Paukrus (talk) 05:07, 8 February 2008 (UTC)[reply

Convention matters. Not insulting our subject matters as well. Can anyone show how Severin spelled his name in English while he was living? -- Y not be working? 05:49, 8 February 2008 (UTC)[reply

See on the NPP Zvezda official site. If this is still not enough, you can try to search his name in the records of IAA. Also, see here. --Yuriy Lapitskiy ~ 06:03, 8 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

With some time lag, his obituary will surely be on the IAA web site. --Yuriy Lapitskiy ~ 06:06, 8 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Why Leonid Gaidai (Гайдай)? It should be "Gay Day" then... I repeatedly insist, that his name should spell in English as Guy or at least Gai. Like Guy Hamilton. --Yuriy Lapitskiy ~ 08:29, 8 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

• Sorry! There is a town

  IPA: [ɡaɪ] --Paukrus (talk) 08:33, 8 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  "Gay Town"? Hmm, nice... I've no more but one comment - the lead sentence gives the second transliteration "Gay or Gai". The name spelling may vary... --Yuriy Lapitskiy ~ 10:05, 8 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  Why Guy Ritchie is translated as Гай Ритчи and not Гуй Ритчи? Gay-Lussac's law is Гей-Люссак, not Гай-Люссака. Enough? --Yuriy Lapitskiy ~ 10:19, 8 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  Gay (Гай) means "birch grove, birchwood" in Russian Language. No any homosexual. --Paukrus (talk) 23:32, 8 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  But it means homosexual in English (See Talk:Gay, Russia analysis). And, please, respect his own translation of his name (re-read this talk page above). He did not like the translation "Gay" and he knew English well. --Yuriy Lapitskiy ~ 08:06, 9 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I am now convinced that notwithstanding

WP:RUS, we should have him under Guy because that is how he spelled his own name in English. -- Y not be working? 15:42, 8 February 2008 (UTC) - Moved. -- Y not be working? 16:46, 8 February 2008 (UTC)[reply
