Spelling
I suggest remove spelling of the city in Russian (Днепр and Днепропетровск) as it's unsufficient and excessive information. --Crazyalien (talk) 07:46, 6 February 2019 (UTC)
- Thank you for your opinion. This question was discussed before, and the consensus was so far to keep Russian names in localities where the population is predominantly Russian speaking.--Ymblanter (talk) 07:54, 6 February 2019 (UTC)

Soviet Union and Nazi rule section
Tho there is a fair amount of info here (well, in the next section, actually) about the Soviet times, there is nothing about Nazi rule, despite the section title. Does anyone have anything? Boscaswell talk 21:04, 14 March 2019 (UTC)
Content about the Holodomor
I have moved the following[1] to the article on Dnepropetrovsk Oblast, since it is about about oblast not the city:
- During the Holodomor more than 200 collective farms in Dnipropetrovsk had been put on "Blackboards" which was a complete blockade of trade and food aid to villages under performing in grain procurement quotas;[1] a number representing more than half of all such "Blackboards" throughout all of Ukraine.[1]

Middle Ages
This section is mainly unsourced and possibly incorrect. The section states: "By the mid-15th century, the Nogai (who lived north of the Sea of Azov) and the Crimean Khanate invaded these lands." Please correct me if I am wrong but I understood that the Nogai arrived in the Crimean Khanate in two waves, the first in the mid-16th century under Yusuf Mirza and the second in the mid-17th century after the Kalmyk invasion of the Nogai's traditional lands around the lower Volga.
