message: I removed link to rather obscure Soviet doctor from Mongolia. I think most people won't confuse him with Henryk Sienkiewicz.
Of course I am open to arguments.But I find it rather doubtfull the link is neccessary.

message: I find this sentence confusing:
In 1924, when Poland gained its independence, writer’s ashes were placed in St. John’s Cathedral in Warsaw.
It suggests, Poland gained independence in 1924 while it was in 1918.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.77.135.210 (talk) 11:31, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The text was indeed confusing.  It had evidently been written by a non-English-native-speaker.  I've corrected several of the article's final sentences.  I'm sure there is much more that should be corrected, time permitting.  Nihil novi (talk) 20:34, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  More Observations 

message: I think Henryk Sienkiewicz easily compares in the quality of his writing to the likes of Sir Walter Scott, for example, and some of the great Russian and French writers such as Tolstoy, Dostoyevsky and Maupassant. However, I think he is very under-recognised outside Poland which is a great shame. Personally, I feel the Polish Ministry of Culture needs to do a lot more to promote its great literary tradition, which includes other great writers like Boleslaw Prus. Perhaps an annual book festival should be launched in Krakow or Wroclaw to facilitate this. Ivankinsman (talk) 15:39, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, in general, few writers are translated into English; he is hardly an exception. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 12:00, 10 April 2013 (UTC)

The Cracow-Poznan standard of pronunciation assimilates all instances of  to . In the Warsaw standard of pronunciation, this assimilation is restricted to some words such as ręka , but not piosenka  (the spelling is irrelevant, bank is also . It's just an archaic, illogical distinction that has no impact on pronunciation). Kbb2 (ex. Mr KEBAB) (talk) 12:50, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: alright, thanks and sorry for misunderstanding the whole thing. If that’s the way it is, we probably should note it at Help:IPA/Polish.  イヴァンスクルージ九十八（会話） 12:57, 20 August 2019 (UTC)
