Agree and am trying to understand "WikiProject_Christianity". I have conducted field research among Russian sectarians and schismatics in North America since 1972, and in Europe since 1992. Molokane are a different, though somewhat related faith from Pryguny, and Dukh-i-zhizniki. These are 3 different entities, with major significant divisions among Dukh-i-zhizniki. Other Russian sectarian faiths that have evolved and persisted to the present are 3 different entities of Dukhoborsty in Canada, 2 in Georgia, and others in Russia; and different branches of that evolved from historic ''Subbotniki'' in North America, Israel, Eastern Europe, and Central Asia. A major problem occurs as people not familiar with these people try to apply historic labels found in the literature from the 1800s to modern populations in the 2000s, while ignoring about 150-200 years of social evolution which has eluded most all scholars, journalists, governments, and the faith followers.

Molokan → Molokans – "Molokan" is inconsistent with other articles, like those about e.g. Baptists, and they are generally just called Molokans; see sources on the article & on Molokans in Armenia for typical conventions. ... sawyer * he/they * talk 22:07, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
