== Russia article pop. == 

 Hi, 

 About two days ago you reverted my edit to the Russia article, where I updated the population to the latest known number, based on the official sources we've always used. I have been making similar edits for years, so it'd be good to hear what made you RV it. 

 Additionally, I will now insert it back, and going forward would appreciate a discussion before any further attempts to revert sourced data.
