This is excellent! It's a very useful and reliable source for
biographies of current public figures in the Russian-speaking world.
Good to hear that it was freed, and good to hear that Wikisource
became its new home.

> Good day, colleagues,
> I want to say about our small news: Lenta.ru, one of the most popular
> Russian language online resources with over 600 thousand visitors
> daily, have developed Lentapedia, an archive about popular news. It
> was very popular source for Russian Wikipedia articles, but some time
> ago the main Lenta's editor decided to stop updating the project
> because of lack of traffic and publish the project under cc-by-sa 3.0.
> Some days ago Lenta.ru changed it's design, and there isn't any place
> for Lentapedia in it, so we copied all materials from Lentapedia to
> Wikisourse; 1993 articles.
>
> As I said before, it's enough small news, but I hope it will be
> interesting there.
> Our post about it is there:
