Notes
Kalininsk/Calininsc chronology is inconsistent. Municipal strategy 2022–2029 gives the common general statement until 1990, but its detailed history cites a Supreme Soviet resolution dated 31 January 1991 for the Cupcini name. Exact legal effective date requires further checking. https://api.cupcini.md/Strategia-de-dezvoltare-socio-economica-a-orasului-Cupcini-raionul-Edinet-2022-2029-1-1.pdf Independent French locality-prose evidence is limited.
