Subject: [PATCH] Fix for category-media-ru and category-media-ru-blocked
 (#3486)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

* Rename category-media-ru into category-media-ru-blocked

The list was built based on a Wikipedia source listing media sites
blocked in Russia:
https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Список_заблокированных_в_России_СМИ

The original name is misleading.

* category-media-ru-blocked: add comments

* Create category-media-ru

This list contains media sites in Russia
