Talk:Tutrakan

message: There is a dispute about the inclusion or not of the Romanian alternative name Turtucaia
Arguments for the addition of the name in Romanian:
* it belonged to Romania for 27 years: 1913-1940
* it is located on the border with Romania
* 3820 google books results
* there is an article Battle of Turtucaia; Battle of Turtucaia has 600 to 800 views/month, approx the same no of  visitors like the article about the city Tutrakan (Turtucaia) itself 
* In 1913, when Southern Dobruja was annexed by Romania, it was, alongside Silistra, one of the settlements with the highest no of Romanians (RomanianCadrilater (talk) 02:27, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

text: There are more arguments to insert Romanian name here than to keep bulgarian for Constanta (79.117.159.91 (talk) 13:25, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: You really have to start relying on wiki policies if you intend to edit here. What you're doing now is summarized here. For now - since you did not provide any other reasons for the addition, I'm removing the name. And once again - editing from different IPs to game the system is considered disruptive. Please, stop. --Laveol T 15:11, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

text: I already agreed that the name might stay here after Anonimu's input. Please, do not change your comments since they represented the flaw of the conversation. And congrats on the new nationalistic username you got there. Way to go. But mind you that even if you create a dozen more accounts, you still won't be able to edit the article for some time. --Laveol T 09:43, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: congrats for your nationalistic behaviour, you knew from the beginning that the Romanian name should be included, but you refused it then(RomanianCadrilater (talk) 09:55, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text:  I was going to say that, can we please avoid usernames like User:RomanianCadrilater or User:BulgarianNorthernDobruja and stuff? I mean, it's ridiculous. Todor→Bozhinov 13:54, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

text: Actually, per WP naming convention, the Romanian name should be restored. The city was under Romanian rule for about 20 years (and it was actually one of the few places in Southern Dobruja with a Romanian minority before 1913), and during that time it was mentioned under the Romanian name by several English language sources, as this Google Book Search results (optimised for non-Romanian language results) shows. People should remember that such alternatives are only to help readers (and the encyclopaedia is to be optimised for them, not for editors), and, when properly mentioned, don't serve any nationalist purpose.Anonimu (talk) 16:26, 19 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I support inclusion of the Romanian name as it is in accordance with WP:naming and general practices. If the place does have a Romanian name, it is a relevant information here and must appear. Apart from big cities with long history, places usually have name in more than one language if they were inhabited or ruled by different ethnic communities over time, therefore, contoversies are also more frequent among editors. National sensitivity in this matter is not a reason to restrict appearance of information. Rokarudi--Rokarudi 12:42, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

text: The town was in Romania and there were Romanians in the town. Nobody says that the Romanian name should come first or that the Bulgarian name should be removed. The matter has already been discussed, your arguments are not new and have been largely answered above. I don't think there's more to be said about that matter. I fail to see why it's a big deal, really. Constanţa has the Bulgarian name listed, Hârşova, Sânnicolau Mare and Galaţi just as well, and I reckon that Giurgiu may be a good place to add it if you feel like it. What's all the fuss about removing perfectly relevant names?  — Toдor Boжinov — 13:46, 25 February 2011 (UTC)
