Death conspiracy[edit]

At one point an editor added: "There was a conspiracy theory that Skobelev had been poisoned by a secret order of Alexander III." without citation. On 12 April 2007, this was removed from the article. Can anyone provide a source and citation for this information? --Bejnar 20:04, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Also regarding a conspiracy theory: maybe The Death of Achilles should be mentioned. Ben ^T/_C 14:19, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
