Planning on adding content

Hello! I'm planning on editing this page as part of an assignment for my course on Russian Literature. I'll be compiling some of the existing information from other Wikipedia pages and adding a little research from outside sources. Looking forward to working with the Wikipedia community!

Proposition to move the contents of this article

Although this article is titled "Folklore of Russia" and defines it as the folklore of the ethnicities of Russia (which there are ~150-200 of, I believe), this article, as far as I can see, is exclusively about the folklore of the ethnic Russians. I propose creating a new article, titled "Russian folklore," which will be only about ethnic Russian folklore, and moving the great majority of content in this article there. This article should not go so much in depth about folklore of one ethnicity, but rather give an outline of the folklore of each ethnicity that Russia is home to (indigenous, including ethnic Russians of course), and link to main articles that go more in-depth about each ethnicity's folklore.

Folklore of Russia → Russian folklore – The article content is specifically about Russian folklore. Folklore of other numerous indigenous peoples of Russia are completely different. The lede of the moved page must be edited accordingly. And "Folklore of Russia" must be turned into a list: "Russian folklore", "Chuvanh folklore", "Bashkir folklore", "Karelian-Finnish folklore", "Yakut folklore", etc. It may be supplanted with a text of mutual influence of these folklores, is scholarly articles exist. and/or sections may be created, with summaries of the above folklores, per WP:Summary style. --Altenmann >talk 18:23, 24 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Strong support per nom, the scope fits better
