There is historical disagreement over changing Sikorsky's nationality from Russian to Ukrainian. Edit requests which may be controversial require consensus exist prior to implementation. Because of this, they are usually denied by editors.
If Ukrainian moves to the United States how does it make him Russian-American? Was Moctezuma II Spanish?
Was Tadeusz Kościuszko also a Russian-American? His homeland was under Russian Empire control when he emigrated to the United States. Same with Kazimierz Pułaski. Was he Russian-American too? If Gandhi have moved to the United States would he be put in English-American category? He should have if there is any sense in calling Sikorsky "Russian-American". But it seems that this Ukrainian gets totally different treatment for some mysterious reasons. Or is it the other way around and it's people not calling Pułaski and Kościuszko Russian-Americans in wrong? UncleGoodAdvice (talk) 22:15, 21 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Actually Sikorsky is Ukrainian.
This is evidenced by Igor Sikorsky himself in a letter written in English to Vasyl Halych on August 30, 1933: "My family, which originally is from a village in the Kyiv region where my grandfather and great-grandfather were priests, is of purely Ukrainian origin…" This is probably the only known document signed by Igor Sikorsky, in which he speaks of his ethnicity. 178.133.64.170 (talk) 13:36, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That is correct.He is Ukrainian-American not Russian,he attended Kyiv Polytechnic not Moscow so I am not sure why on earth would someone write it Russian unless whoever did it is Russian himself and they always highjack history of Ukraine to portray as theirs. There was an interview of two of his sons who clearly states that their father was Ukrainian and their mother way born in Poltava,Ukraine.
This is why Wolepedia is in trouble finasially because people caught up to their BS and any propaganda.
The fact that Ukraine was occupied doesn’t make someone Russian lol,same as former Soviet Union counties who were just under the Russian umbrella but with their own language,traditions are not Russians and it doesn’t say Russian in their passports.Who wrote this POS wiki page?
