message: Answering my own question: the town of Kotsiubynske (
, historically Bilychi village) is indeed an exclave of Kiev Oblast in Kiev city. It has been pretty hard to investigate online :( and I found only this supposedly broken link to support the info. Looks like UA govt is hiding this silly geo-bureaucratic fact as much as possible :))). Ukrained 22:43, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

message: Which is it? The page title uses Kiev, most of the text uses Kyiv (including for the name of the city). I don't care which is used, just pick one. What I do care about is the fact that the city is called Kiev in English, whatever the decision about the name of the oblast and the name of this page, any use of the city name alone should be Kiev. --Khajidha (talk) 15:31, 16 July 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: It should be Kiev regardless. If most of the article refers to the city as Kyiv then it should be reverted back because that was a unilateral change on someone's part that was taken without any prior discussion. Consensus has established that Kiev is the proper name that we should use on Wikipedia, and in 95% of the articles, it is. § DDima 15:47, 16 July 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I think I got everything. I couldn't just use a search and replace, as some uses of Kyiv are legitimate: quotations, source names, discussion of the transliteration. The previous change to Kyiv had made total nonsense of a sentence discussing the two different names. --Khajidha (talk) 16:48, 16 July 2014 (UTC)

message: In Wikipedia we should use official names of regions and cities therefore consider it appropriate to rename a page on the official name specified in the official translation of the Constitution of Ukraine, which is used in all documents and the names of institutions (Kyiv Oblast). 
Official translation the Constitution of Ukraine: www.kmu.gov.ua/document/110977042/Constitution_eng.doc
Use header Kiev Oblast is not approved in the official documents of the country, and was used in the Soviet Union. I believe that the use of the name Kiev Oblast possible only as an additional and historic, but not official. Tunyk (talk) 10:27, 26 June 2016 (UTC)
