Orphaned references in State Anthem of the Soviet Union[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of State Anthem of the Soviet Union's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "gbrussia":

From Patrioticheskaya Pesnya: "The Russian National Anthem and the problem of National Identity in the 21st Century". The Great Britain - Russia Society. gbrussia.org. Archived from the original on 2007-10-15.
From National anthem of Russia: "The Russian National Anthem and the problem of National Identity in the 21st Century". The Great Britain – Russia Society. gbrussia.org. Archived from the original on September 23, 2016.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 03:36, 26 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Bad English Translations[edit]

The English translations here appear to be terrible. I don't speak Russian, though I do speak another east slavic language. But identical lines from the first two versions are translated differently. Also, the very first verse appears to be translated improperly and should be along the lines of "Ubreakable union of free republics united Great Rus'/Russia forever." Based on the declension of the verb, Rus' appears to be the object in this single sentence. KaerbaqianRen^💬 16:56, 17 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
