Jokebook:Russian jokes
Most of jokes will not be understood here. And it's currents have nothing to do with jokes. --Divinity 07:34, 20 Jun 2005 (UTC)


 * In translation they might be funny. Jokebook:Radio Yerevan could be a good place for one. Charlie123 8 July 2005 13:11 (UTC)


 * Delete - This is a fork of Russian joke with some 'jokes' attached, the first of which appears to be a quote from Websters's Biographical Dictionary. I don't speak russian, so I can't tell what the other things are, so perhaps they should be transwikied to ru.wikibooks.org's equivalent of Jokebook to see if they think they're funny or not. - Aya 8 July 2005 17:11 (UTC)


 * Delete - Being russian, I understand these jokes, but even in translation they aren't really funny. The part describing what Russian jokes are is valid though. Yuzzaa 23 July 2005 16:33 (UTC)


 * I saw far better Russian jokes on Russian joke; perhaps these could be copied over? If not, then I would vote for Delete. Alex.Szatmary


 * Delete - This is an attempt to fork from Wikipedia, and not a good one either. This page is also drawing quite a bit of vandalism (and no reverts to kill it either).  --Rob Horning 13:11, 26 July 2005 (UTC)


 * Comment Replace with samples from Russian joke - people from Wikipedia often unknowingly abuse that article to add their favourites, I would link here from Wikipedia, so those jokes would go here. As for current content I think that is just some prank (no jokes to speak of). I know a couple more jokes to add, many jokes could be pulled out of oblivion in Wikipedia article's history - so please keep this section. w:User:Gnomz007 from Wikipedia 18:27, 30 July 2005 (UTC)
 * I would further suggest that Wikiquote may be a more appropriate place to put some of these one-lineer jokes...particularly if they can be attributed to either traditional Russian folklore or some specific Russian. Somehow it just doesn't seem appropriate to have a jokebook like this as a textbook.  --Rob Horning 08:24, 2 August 2005 (UTC)
