Talk:Alaksandar Milinkievič

message: About all the redirs we have here, the last name can be writen as Milinkievič (proper form of writing Belarusian in Latin, although rearly used), Milinkievic (simplified form of the fromer), Milinkevich (roughly fonetical transcription into English, seems to be the most common form), Milinkiewicz, the Christian name can be writen as Alexander (the correct form of the name in English, although at the moment it's common not to translate Christian names), Alaksandar, Aliaksandar/Alyaksanar (that's incorrect ля should be transcribed as la, this applies generally to iotified vowels).
:Just about every world media outlet writes his name as Alexander Milinkevich, as Russian is the most commonly spoken out of the two official languages in the country. See, e.g., this search 172 | Talk 06:17, 10 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text:  http://en.milinkevich.org/ uses Alaxandar Milinkevich just to complicate things. I've added it as a redirect. --Valentinian 00:21, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

message: Ummm.... Doesn't Milinkievic have any political programs or policies to propose? We could be cynical and assume that all he wants is political power,  but apart from getting Łukaszenko out of power, there surely must be something else positive he is proposing to would-be electors, and i'm sure he doesn't state openly that domination by US and EU corporations is part of his (or his coalition's) political platform.

replies: text: Much like Kostunica, his policies are, first and foremost, to remove the dictator and introduce democracy. He is an umbrella candidate supported by everything from liberals to communists and nationalists. Positive enough. Further programmes would have to be worked out once the political situation is normalised. As for your final sentence, Boud, I will never understand why there are so many people around who believe that if you oppose dictatorship you have to be a lackey of US imperialism. If the US and EU supports him he has to be bad, is that it? Shrewd political analysis, really shrewd. (Barend 14:43, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  policies? ToDo list 

message: This line was added by an anon editor (addition in bold):
Milinkievič was born in 1947 in Hrodna to a family of Polish descent.
Never heard that one before and his native language is Belarusian. Please provide a credible source. Valentinian (talk) 20:42, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Decent? 

message: The article uses both Milinkievich and Milinkieviĉ.  Both are fine, but the article should be coherent.  Please choose one spelling and make the article uniform. Jec (talk) 07:09, 27 October 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Ironically, the most common name in English sources, e.g. on Google and GoogleBooks, is Alexander Milinkevich. Zloyvolsheb (talk) 13:00, 13 April 2012 (UTC)
