Yeah I think a mention of Mr Scruffs help is deserved :)
Also would it be okay to make a  list of the units involved in the Soviets?

Remember, Wikipedia isn't a game guide. You can't just list units. Try looking at articles for big games and try to mimic their layout.

The wiki page is deleted? WTF? The reason stated is that it was previously deleted and then recreated.  ???

Can someone tell me about Mr Scruff and his work in the EF team? I did not know him.

That page had no reason to be take down this time round. It was previously deleted because it had not been released and there were no sources other than our website, whereas now it has been featured on a number of international websites and even VERY big magazines.

I would put it back up now but it is difficult to do so from my phone, so can anyone use their Wiki to argue the cause? A few more references from sites and magazines should do the trick.

In our country we have saying which comes from communist era that: "Initiative dork is worse than the class enemy". I would like to help but I have no nice words for such asshole who knows shit but just quickly delete the page. And if I insult him it wouldn't be very productive. As you wrote there was no reason to do that but guy didn't even bother to check the facts.

Here's the last version of the Wikipedia's Article before deletion. I change the extension from html to txt because the former isn't supported here :P.

EDIT: I upload a v2 of the file, I forgot to delete an element of the body.
