Notes
Pokrovske here is the Nikopol-area village Q4369410 at the supplied coordinates. French locality text mixes this identity with geography of Pokrovske on the Vovcha; that geography is rejected. Population not repeated. Independent place-description evidence remains limited. Standard-derived romanizations are retrieval aids, not claims of English or French prose frequency.
