The content ofRossiyane wasmerged intoRussian citizenship law on 19 January 2015. The former page'shistory now serves toprovide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists. For the discussion at that location, see itstalk page.
Until 2001 every former Soviet citizen could apply for Russian citizenship through registration (Article 18, p. "g" of 1991 Act). Abkhazians and South Ossetians formed no more than 5-10% of Soviet citizens who did this.92.36.70.105 (talk)20:49, 3 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Move the reference in the infobox to somewhere in the body, probably the last paragraph ofDual citizenship arrangements with other former Soviet states, and expand upon its content since its not mentioned in the article.
Moved and expanded.
List when the law was amended in the "|amendments=" parameter
This would be quite unwieldy and the layout would be terrible. There's 35 separate amendments for this law alone.
Put the Russian translation of "On Citizenship of the Russian Federation" after it's mentioned:({{lang-ru|О гражданстве Российской Федерации}})
Done.
The infobox says it was amended, mention when it was amended in the first paragraph, and if possible, why it was amended/what was amended.
Per above, there's 35 separate amendments for the primary law and would result in something unwieldy. Additionally, since the subject of the article is Russian citizenship law in general rather than the 2002 law specifically, I believe it's fine just to describe the major changes in the body, which is already done.
Fair enough
"and residents were Soviet citizens" → "and its residents were Soviet citizens"
Remove the see also template for Russian Revolution, Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic, and Soviet Union, it's not relevant. Keep the see also template for Soviet nationality law
Done.
"After the start of the October Revolution" → "After the October Revolution"
Done.
"in 1922. Citizenship regulations were restructured" → "in 1922, and citizenship regulations were restructured"
Done.
Remove the comma after 1977 Constitution of the Soviet Union
