[edit] Merger with IZh
IZh and Izhmash are two articles about the same company, and they need to be merged, but I don't trust myself enough to try it.
It looks like it should be fairly simple though for someone with some experience, anyone up to the task?
- It is done. Thanks for pointing it out! --Oceanhahn 22:02, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Expansion Topics
I'd love to get more information on the automobiles section of this firm. I may actually do it myself sometime soon. -- Oceanhahn 22:18, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] IZH?
Is it really true that IzhMash is commonly referred to as IZH, IZh or Izh in the West? (at least I see such usage by tracking backlinks from these three letters). Mind you, "IZH" is not an abbreviation: it is either the name of the Izh River (Иж) or a part of the abbreviation for the plant IzhMash.
Anticommunists and other Westies, please clarify, because I started a disambig page at "Izh" and have to decide what to do with the two remaining 3cc's (At least IzH is unused and it looks like I cannot create iZH or iZh). `'mikka (t) 00:50, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] It's Izhmash, not Izhevsk Mechanical Works.
Izhmash (ОАО "Ижмаш") and Izhevsk Mechanical Works (ФГУП "Ижевский Механический завод") are two completely different legal entities, with their own histories. The former produces AKs, while the latter produces hunting shotguns and Makarov pistols. 217.114.151.228 19:43, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
