Name[edit]

(from my talk page):

Pardon my intrusion, but I have a proposition. Would it be better to rename the name to the Russian Academy of Sciences Mathematics Institute (Steklov's memorial optional) St. Petersburg campus? At first I have been under impression that the subject refers to some glass industry:) when I read St. Petersburg Department of Steklov. Wouldn't be BLUF-type name be better alternative? (BLUF-bottom line up-front). Just a thought... Aleksandr Grigoryev (talk) 01:15, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The correct solution would be to use whatever term is most commonly officially used by the Institute in their documents written in English. - 7-bubёn >t 01:23, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
P.S. (I didn't notice that piece in your text before) And today it is no one's campus. - 7-bubёn >t 00:02, 28 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]
