message: :Image:Pyat rublei 1997.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lachvjnvnbking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

message: Previously a paragraph in the short decription stated:
"More specifically, it may refer to equal life chances regardless of identity, to provide all citizens with a basic and equal minimum of income, goods, and services or to increase funds and commitment for redistribution."
This is not grammatical and in fact makes no sense. To illustrate:
I read this as an enumeration of three more specific meanings of it (being "equality"):
meaning 1: "equal life chances regardless of identity" 
meaning 2: "to provide all citizens with a basic and equal minimum of income, goods, and services"
meaning 3: "to increase funds and commitment for redistribution"
If this was phrased with meaning 2 in isolation:
"More specifically, it may refer to provide all citizens with a basic and equal minimum of income, goods, and services."
This is not grammatical. Equality cannot provide a minimum of income.
Meaning 3 in isolation:
"More specifically, it may refer to increase funds and commitment for redistribution"
Equality as an idea or concept cannot increase funds or commitment for redistribution. 
Concepts are not agentic and do not advocate for implementing themselves.
People (or an implied ideological movement?) may say that equality is desirable and therefore this movement's stated aim
is "to increase funds and commitment for redistribution".
Hence I changed it. But I'm not quite sure, what exact movement, school of thought or ideology is being referred to.
So it would be nice, if someone with more semantic insight on this topic could clarify this.
Or perhaps drop this sentence altogether? Must.learn.more. (talk) 12:40, 18 September 2022 (UTC)
