Lost Starling section
Is this timeline cool with you guys? As far as possible, I'm trying to stick to real-life dates for analogous events; although I noticed upon editing that I appear to have given a date for Hitler's death - 50 years before 2014, or 1964. That could be substituted for pretty much any major Nazi celebration you like, or moved forward or back - I mainly want to emphasise the internecine rivalry between the Commissariat of the Exterior and the intelligence community, there.
Also, the Lost Starling entries on the KGB and GRU pages share a lot of the same material, the second and last paragraphs, respectively. Although I wrote more than I anticipated, and it's clearly an important episode for both groups, I didn't feel it warranted a separate page - and that having a separate page would make it harder to find the information about the event specific to each group. If you'd prefer to have separate page with the information merged, I can rework it.
Lastly, for 20th C characters, I've bolded instead of hyperlinked, because, honestly, no-one's ever going to get around to making a Lavrenty Beria page - apart from Hitler and Stalin, maybe, they're just not important enough for the game.

- Myself, I think it would be more useful to make 'the lost starling' its own page. Maybe have a KGB section, a GRU section, and some closing paragraphs. Less duplication that way, and all the info then in one place for people to read.
- Maybe with an 'also see' pointing to KBG and GRU?
