This was reported by the administrator of Ukrainian Wikipedia and program coordinator of NGO "Wikimedia Ukraine" Anton Protsyuk on his Facebook page.
"A little bit of good news: the other day, the English Wikipedia community corrected the title of another article about a Ukrainian city — now #OdesaNotOdessa.
Many media and other English-language sources have already switched to the correct spelling, but after the renaming in Wikipedia, we expect that even more will switch," the message reads.
In addition, Protsyuk adds that since the beginning of 2022, the English-language article about Odesa has been viewed more than 1,3 million times on Wikipedia alone, not including resources that refer to the electronic encyclopedia.
