Year of publication[edit]

@PeterR: In this edit @WSBiography: states that "Footer on title page states 'Printed in 2004'". If this is truly the case, the template needs to be renamed "Medvedev, 2004". I can do that, but first need verification of the year of publication. –Tommy Kronkvist (talk), 12:42, 23 December 2017 (UTC).[reply]

Just look at the bottom of the title page in the linked PDF (that is the only verification we need and are likely to get) ... WSBiography (talk) 21:18, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Plus independent verification here ... WSBiography (talk) 21:21, 23 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It's all a bit odd though. According to Zoological Museum of Moscow, Moscow University only volume 12, part 1 of the "AS2003" edition got pubished in 2003, while number 2 + 3–4 was published in 2004.[1] The situation for AS2004 is the same: volume 13, number 1–2 was published in 2004, while number 3 + 4 was published in 2005.[2] It even gets a bit more confusing, since the Medvedev article isn't mentioned there at all... (On another matter but for the sake of completeness, Medvedev is also listed as one of the editors in chief.)[3]Tommy Kronkvist (talk), 11:31, 24 December 2017 (UTC).[reply]
Publication delays are hardly "odd"! If the article itself states that it was published (printed) in 2004, then 2004 is the publication date to be accepted. Please keep an eye on PeterR (he has already changed it back to 2003!) ... WSBiography (talk) 22:35, 25 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Tommy Kronkvist: PeterR keeps changing it back to 2003! This is ridiculous! ... WSBiography (talk) 20:26, 27 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
