Notes
The former reservoir shoreline is changing after the destruction of the Kakhovka dam; the description avoids assuming an intact reservoir. Official national geographical register confirms Velyka Znamianka. https://land.gov.ua/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/1.1-administratyvno-terytorialni-obyekty-ukrayiny.pdf System-derived alternatives are retrieval aids, not claims of press frequency. French reference attestation is limited; the main form is an editorial choice and has lower confidence. Some reference requests failed during research; surviving checks and unresolved usage limitations are distinguished above.
