message: Are these the same as the "Chechen militiamen" used by the Russians in the August 2008 invasion of Georgia? I haven't heard one way or the other from the media, but this would seem to make sense -- I don't imagine the Russians would have particular luck recruiting ordinary Chechens just eight years after leveling Grozny. Although I could be wrong: stranger things have happened in history, and I don't know what the ordinary Chechens thought (or currently think) of the ChRI as compared with the Russians.

message: Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted.
Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia.
This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link.
If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting.
If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page.
If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta.
When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags.
The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true.

replies: text: "Chechen security forces" have existed before  the Kadyrovs even came to power. That's including the separatist police (MVD) and their own KGB-renamed, but also the pro-Russian police of Beslan Gantamirov (main rival of Kadyrov I) in 1994-1996 and later since 1999 until 2001 or so, as well as others like the local (ethnic Chechen) peeosnnel and entire special units of the FSB, until the FSB was evicted from Chechnya by Kadyrov II. The regiment info should be simply split out into a separate article, and this one should also be thoroughly rewritten to be factual (like how there was no such force in any shape or form whatsoever until 1999 at the really very earliest). Other official Kadyrovtsy units existing currently include the Chechen OMON special police, the SOBR police commando unit Terek, various more or less regular cops, and detachments of the so-called "Russian military police" sent to Syria, among others (and of course the ever more mobilized forces sent to Ukraine too, beginning in 2014 with "Chechen volunteers" for the separatist forces including the Death Battalion). Originally, they were a "presidential security service" for Kadyrov I while led by Kadyrov II (who was the first to abdicate the republican presidential title after he replaced his dad, since then followed by all the "heads of the republics" as they're called now). And there are many thousands of them, as can be seen in their various mass rallies with weapons and matching uniforms in stadiums and squares, but only a part of then is formally organized into official units and a part is informal and fluid.  5.173.113.62 (talk) 23:15, 25 December 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Renaming the article to "Chechnya’s Security Forces" 

message: https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Кадыровцы
For instance, the article of only the 141st Regiment: 
If it's needed to reiterated: all members of the 141st are Kadyrovtsy, but only few Kadyrovtsy are members of the 141st.
It's like the article Bolsheviks isn't about some randomly selected Bolshevik unit but the entire movement. 
The world Kadyrovtsy (not "Kadyrovites", also in English - see "Kadyrovtsy" in Google Books) has been in use since around 2000, and the 141st was only formed in 2017 (while for example the 78th regiment was only formed in September 2022).

text: Yes, "141st Regiment" can be made a redirect to this page (no one objects), but splitting this page would not work. Here is description of their forces operating in Ukraine , and they do not fit such split. Yes, you are welcome to create the suggested sub-pages about the subdivisions of Kadyrovites.

 —Michael Z. 18:02, 29 June 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  Source 

message: The name of this page is misleading. It should be named '141st Special Motorized Regiment'. Because
'Kadyrovites' mean all the forces that are loyal to Ramzan Kadyrov. There are several forces loyal to Ramzan and 141st Special Motorized Regiment is one of them.
All the members of 141st Special Motorized Regiment are Kadyrovites, but all the Kadyrovites  aren’t part of 141st Special Motorized Regiment.
In Russian Wikipedia, this page links to :ru:141-й специальный моторизованный полк имени А. А. Кадырова (141st Special Motorized Regiment). And there is a separate Russian page named :ru:Кадыровцы (Kadyrovites), which describes all the units loyal to Ramzan Kadyrov. 
It is more accurate presentation and it should be done in English Wikipedia too, to create two separate pages, as 'Kadyrovites' and '141st Special Motorized Regiment' aren't exactly the same things.
