    That article is undergoing heavy editing right now. It was either reverted or revised in a way that is again similar.

      As usual - WikiWars intensified during crisis, but since the very basis of the platform is capitalistic/fash (plus IIRC it’s creator openly declared himself as an anti-communist more than once) the “winner” is known in advance. They have the tools needed to lock it (or whatever it is today) and achieve the intended final form of the article.

It saw its first combat experience recapturing Mariupol from pro-Russian separatists in June 2014.[6] On 12 November 2014, Azov was incorporated into the National Guard.[11][12]
