On Health section, a sentence expresses "As a result of the large gender difference in life expectancy, and also because of the lasting effect of high casualties in World War II, the gender imbalance remains to this day; there are 0.859 males to every female." However, World War II ended in 1945, and it has past 71 years since, roughly the life expectancy of Russia. So it is very unlikely that WW2 effects are still being felt today in the gender imbalance issue; there must be other reasons for it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 179.52.208.20 (talk) 19:25, 26 August 2016 (UTC)
CRIMEA SHOULD BE ADDED IN POPULATION
Crimea should be added because the demographic estimate from the Ukrainain Government doesn´t include it, as we can read in the page about Ukraine (42.6 million people) That means in this article it should say that Russian population is 146.6 million.--213.60.237.52 (talk) 23:34, 15 September 2016 (UTC)
That's a great hipocrisy! Nobody excludes Western Sahara (formerly Spanish) population from Morocco, nor the Golan Heights (formerly Syrian) population from Israel, nor the Western Kashmir (formerly Indian) population from Pakistan, why then that special treatment for Crimea? All those territories have also been "illegally" occupied, but it seems that there are two standards in Misplaced Pages: 1) Russia 2) Rest of World.
entirely different teams of editors write the different articles on Wiki & there is no master editor who makes them consistent. The RS is pretty clear on Crimea.Rjensen (talk) 15:24, 22 November 2016 (UTC)

Population with and without Crimean Republic and Sevastopol
When was the the population in the infobox and in the lead reflecting both with and without the Republic of Crimea and Sevastopol changed? I don't remember any such discussion, and recall that both de jure and de facto were the stable representations for a long time. Now this article depicts the population in both the infobox and lead as being 146 544 710 (sic) - not even properly formatted per ] - and the lead as 146.6 million people. Considering that Minsk II still stands, both versions of the statistics should presented. The same thing has happened on the Ukraine article, although only the 'with' population features in the infobox, while only the 'without' figure features in the lead. There is nothing uncontentious about the population estimates therefore, for the purposes of transparency for the reader, both population figures should be depicted. --Iryna Harpy (talk) 20:32, 11 November 2016 (UTC)

entirely different teams of editors write the different articles on Wiki & there is no master editor who makes them consistent. Each article reflects the Reliable Sources (RS). The consensus of RS is pretty clear on Crimea. Rjensen (talk) 15:27, 22 November 2016 (UTC)
