thread_title:  what/where? 

message: :Category:China contains categories for People's Republic of China (PRC) and Republic of China (ROC, Taiwan). Its society-related sub-cats such as :Category:Chinese law include relevant sub-cats for PRC and ROC, and articles/categories that cover both or predate the split. Hong Kong and Macau categories are often placed under PRC. 
Many editors find the categories counter-intuitive, or objectionable to their POV. As a result the structure gets broken as people remove e.g. a Taiwan category from the corresponding "China" head category. 
This recently came up at CFD with the deletion of Category:Companies of China, followed by this DRV which recommended an RFC.  
I propose that (i) there should be a full category structure under :Category:China as a head category for all subjects where PRC or ROC have specific categories; (ii) that categories for HK and Macau should be under PRC; and (iii) a short category explanation template should be incorporated on each "China" category page explaining this structure. - Fayenatic (talk) 21:14, 31 July 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I find the proposal reasonable and useful for current (i.e. post 1949) born people and concepts, because it will help distinguish properly PRC from ROC related topics. However many encyclopaedic articles that will relate to BLPs of people or places existing prior to the creation of PRC should be tagged "China" too because PRC did not exist before then. In general, unless something or someone relates exclusively to PRC or ROC, I would use both categories. The categories will help readers retrieve similar concepts/people in their corresponding articles: let's use them for that purpose. Divide et Impera (talk) 15:21, 2 August 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Temporary capital of Lithuania

message: I removed a number of speculations (had no other choice.. unwillingly..). Also, the alleged requirement for speaking good Polish to be elected remark seems highly doubtful, as Lithuanian was one of the state languages of Central Lithuania and there were even Yiddish-speaking MPs there. Also, I doubt that among those 1-2% of Lithuanians there were any politicians who did not speak Polish. Halibutt 07:08, August 16, 2005 (UTC)
My source for Polish language requirement is "Lietuvos istorijos įvykių chronologija 1918-1926" by Aleksandras Vitkus. It states that "December 1st: Elections' regulations were declared, which said that the elections will be done in counties(?) of Švenčionys, Vilnius, Trakai, Ašmena; that is in territory of Central Lithuania (afterwards, in order to get more votes, the electoral territory was extended to include counties of Breslauja and Lyda, which weren't part of Central Lithuania). (...) January 8-9: Elections to the so-called seimas of Vilnius. In the electoral regulations there was a paragraph, which declared, that each Vilnian, werether he/she would live can come in the voting day to Vilnius and cast his/her vote. Passive electoral right (a right to be elected) was granted for people, who had at least 25 years, completed at least primary school education and speaks good Polish. In the time of elections Polish journalists, in order to inform foreign journalists about the going of elections, organised a press bureau. The elections of "seimas" were held in territory, which had 20211 square kilometers size and about 735089 people. Out of all inhabittants of this area, 385'000 were written into those eligible to vote (according to other source, 263'537), 249'325 voted (according to other source - 163'292) or 64,7% of those eligible to vote (other source - 63,9%)" (translation is also not very well due to my bad English). It wouldn't be anything strange a requirement for good Polish, because that was to be language spken during parliament sessions and such; at those times they did not have the translations capabilities which are for example in European Parliament these days. As for Lithuanian minority speaking Polish, I guess those more urban and such did, but I am not sure werether that'd qualify as good Polish (e.g. my grandfather has troubles understanding Poles on TV and such now, but he knows some Polish - just that it's Vilnius region dialect I guess). 
Also, could you please say where is from the information that supposedly the peace treaty was signed in exchange for cooperation against Poland. I don't think it was the case, as Lithuanians wer ethemselves fighting bolsheviks up to the peace treaty, and were quite weary to accept help from them later (when they offered support in Vilnius conflict in 1923, Lithuania refused and such).

Talk:Naudiz

message: I wondered if the rune's reconstructed name should be "naudhiz", rather than "naudiz", considering that that is the sound in Gothic and Norse...
: It is quite possible, but both Gothic and Old Norse have a lot of instances where Proto-Germanic d has become ð/þ, so that's not evidence that the Proto-Germanic form should have a þ. On the other hand Etymology Online ( http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=need ) supports your theory, so I think you're correct. - Gustav  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.255.203.210 (talk) 21:57, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: I think it does make sense to keep information on it being on Free Ukraine Street to be honest. Things on wikipedia largely need to fit within WP:NPOV so despite personal feelings towards the conflict, we cannot present inaccurate information, which is why some of the IP edits were reverted beforehand, if that is what you are referring to. None of the contributions under your username have been reverted on this page. I think as long as the content added is accurate like it being on "Free Ukraine Street" that can be kept. It's similar to how Embassy of the United Kingdom, Tehran is on Bobby Sands Street. Protest street names given to embassies by the cities/countries they are located in are valid street names.

message: I feel this page should be at "Se Ri Pak" as that is the most common usage in English and that is what Wikipedia:Naming conventions (Korean) suggests: "Personal, organization, and company names should generally be romanized according to their common usage in English sources."

Common usage is "Se Ri Pak": for example, the first few Google search entries (on Se Ri Pak, no quotes), at LPGA, at Seoul Sisters, at about.com, at Yahoo Sports, at World Golf HOF.
