Red Terror → Red Terror in the Russian Civil War – The name of this article implies its going to be about red terror more generally when it's fairly only focused on the Red Terror carried out by the Bolsheviks and allied parties to them. I think it would be more approiate to rename it to this or perhaps "Red Terror (Soviet Union)" or "Red Terror (Bolshevik)".

"Bolshevik gloves"

[edit]

The only source given for the below statement comes from one book written by a Russian aristocrat who had an incentive to exaggerate the crimes of the Cheka beyond their remit. Are this there any other sources that can corroborate these claims?: "At Odessa, the Cheka tied White officers to planks and slowly fed them into furnaces or tanks of boiling water; in Kharkiv, scalpings and hand-flayings were commonplace: the skin was peeled off victims' hands to produce "gloves"." ~2026-45530-13 (talk) 11:39, 19 August 2026 (UTC)Reply
