Either it should be "Semyonov" or the Russian spelling is incorrect - but I've never heard of the chap so I can't edit it. --Wee Jimmy 15:57, 7 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, this is true technically, i.e. it should be either Semyonov or Semionov (LOC transcription). Pls update.

Senator

Was he a senator? I found references to senator Pyotr Semyonov from that period.--_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk} 17:52, 26 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
