thread_title: Where Lithuanian tribe Yatviagi has gone?

message: As a lay reader on this subject, I feel I must describe my experience, which may be typical for other users too: I read the article Galicia a few times, without even noticing that the article Halych-Volhynia existed. I discovered Halych-Volhynia through a link in the article History of Russia. Therefore, I suggest that both articles be merged, or at the least be strongly connected, with links to the other article prominently placed in each. I believe that the eastern part of the Austrian province of Galicia could be characterised culturally as a successor to the Principality of Halych-Volhynia (after all, the majority of the population was Ruthenian-Ukrainian) and that therefore the article Galicia should be the master article, incorporating a chapter on Halych-Volhynia and linking to the article Halych-Volhynia for further information.

replies: text: I am strongly against merging. I do intend to work on expanding Galicia when only I have more time than I have now (i.e. hopefully soon). Thanks for expressing your view on this. – Kpalion (talk) 17:11, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Merging/connecting with article 'Galicia'

message: Shouldn't this redirect to Halych#Old_Halych? Btw, there is a list of rulers of this principality (I think...) at :pl:Księstwo Halickie. There is also Halychyna. I am currently translating Piotr Włostowic and the pl article makes references to prince Wołodar of Halych-Przemyśl (Ruś Halicko-Przemyska), and there is prince Wołodar listed as ruler of Duchy of Halych (księtwo halickie) around (1092-1124) at the pl article above.--Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus Talk 17:17, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Thoughts on current merging

message: I think that images of COA in the template contributes the article. There is no need to delete them. The golden lion on the blue field is a well-known COA of Halych-Volhynia in 13-14 centuries. Irpen, what the problem? --133.41.84.206 00:19, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: First, what is "known" about its color scheme? Second, please point a reliable source of the image. --Irpen 00:27, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

text: The Palaiologoi family eagle should be removed. At least it does not flaunt the national colors of modern Greece or Turkey, like your picture does. --Ghirla-трёп- 09:15, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I see you dislike yellow and blue, claiming them to be "national colours", and rejecting usefulness of templates :-). I think we shouldnt remove eagle (that actualy is not a COA but so-called shield-bearer) or Volodymer emblem (I can make it just gold if you like) because of such "arguments". Its better to standardize all article in the same style with the aid of the template. If you hate self-made images, please, be thoroughgoing and start the removing of self-made maps in Rus-related articles, (Rus Khanate or Sviatoslav) before critisizing my images. Those maps also using "natioanal" colours of Russia.--133.41.84.206 09:41, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Template

message: The template renders the "native name" of the polity as "Галицко-Волинскоє Королѣвство". Please refer me to the chronicle or other medieval source that operates this term. If there are no contemporary sources using the modern Ukrainian name, it should be removed from the template. --Ghirla-трёп- 07:25, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: This principality is normally called Galicia-Volhynia in English ... not the exotic Halych-Volhynia ... I can say that from experience, though doubtlessly google tests will show the Ukrainianized name has been boosted in English by loads of Ukrainian websites ... 336 hits on google books compared with 5 for Halych-Volhynia tells the real story though. Deacon of Pndapetzim (Talk) 02:52, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Galicia-Volhynia is transliterated from RUSSIAN. Halych-Volhynia is transliterated from UKRAINIAN.  There were periods of time when the UKRAINIAN language was suppressed.  People were sent to jail just for publishing in UKRAINIAN hence RUSSIAN transliterations became common in the "ENGLISH" world. Because of this suppression many Ukrainians now are offended by Russian transliteration of Ukrainian place names. Bobanni (talk) 08:08, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  Galicia-Volhynia isn't Russian, it's English. Galicia comes from Eastern Slavic via Latin not Russian ... the fact that Ukrainians have decided to represent Г in English as "H" rather than "G" is neither here nor there. While how some names come into English may be unfortunate (I don't think this is an issue here though), that's the way it is and there's no part of WP:UE that states wikipedia should seek "de-russification" at the expense of usage. If you wish it to do that, go there first, not here. Deacon of Pndapetzim (Talk) 13:45, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Results from google book search

message: Polish wiki's article is at :pl:Księstwo Halicko-Wołyńskie, and księstwo in Polish translates as duchy, not a kingdom. The article doesn't make it clear why the entity should be treated as one with a crowned monarch. Google Book results do indicate, however, that Kingdom of Galicia–Volhynia is a more correct name, as there are 34 results for  Kingdom of Galicia–Volhynia and none for Duchy of Galicia–Volhynia. However, Principality of Galicia–Volhynia seems even more correct:  (112 results). Could somebody clarify this? PS. Also, we need articles on the two principalities (of Galicia and Volhynia) before the merger (the literature, here, seems to favor the term duchy: Duchy of Volhynia (reds here) ( - 4), Principality of Volhynia ( - 92), Duchy of Galicia ( - 39), Principality of Galicia ( - 398) - some of them may however refer to the latter, merged entity...). Overall, the term Principality seems the most correct in this context, and I'd suggest a move. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk  18:07, 21 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Two of the rulers  - and the most significant ones, Daniel and Lev - were crowned King.  It is often referred to as a principality in the context of the various successor states to Kieven Rus, because the others were all principalities.  So if an article refers to various Russian or Kieven Rus principalities then Galicia-Volhynia will be included in that number.  However, I suspect that sources which consider Galicia-Volhynia seperately refer to it as a kingdom. The Kingdom aspect is significant because these rulers were the only Rurikids (the family that had ruled Kieven Rus and its descendants including in Muscovy) to have been crowned Kings.Faustian (talk) 19:08, 21 November 2009 (UTC)

text: However, the title of the article is misleading. This political entity was described the Land of Galicia-Volhynia, union of principalities (duchies) of Galicia and Volhynia, later known as the Kingdom of Ruthenia (Rus'). NOT Kingdom of Galicia-Volhynia - Romanovich Rurikids didn't try to create a title to be separate from the Rus', but a title to have claims to all of Rus'. The same title (King of Ruthenia) was later used by Polish kings after they inherited Galicia from Yuri-Boleslaw II.212.87.174.235 (talk) 08:37, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

message: The country was never called as Kingdom of Galicia–Volhynia. It is totally invented name such as the Russian Panfilov's Twenty-Eight Guardsmen and rest of Soviet and Russian historiography such as denial of GULAG, existence of Hitler–Stalin military pact, the 1939 Soviet–Nazi Germany victory parade in Brest-Litovsk and other stuff. Aleksandr Grigoryev (talk) 00:45, 15 July 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: The country's name on all maps of that period and couple of centuries later was Russia and therefore Poland following occupation of Western Ukraine named the territory as Ruthenian Voivodeship which means Russian Palatinate similar to count palatine. Aleksandr Grigoryev (talk) 00:50, 15 July 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Why are we counting google search? How is that justifiable? Could it be that there are less older book contemporary with those times than books written later? Why are we turning Wikipedia into new reality by trusting amateur historians who count google search? Aleksandr Grigoryev (talk) 00:57, 15 July 2019 (UTC)

text: Coins, maps contemporary with that period show that the country at the right-bank Ukraine was known as Russia, yet Wikipedia editors count google search. Who can explain the reason? On the other hand there are no archaeological evindences, nor maps of that period that show existence of Russia around Moscow, yet the English Wikipedia continues to reflect Russian propaganda.

message: This is an anachronistic title and so is "Regnum Rusiae" [sic].  "Russia" is a Greek exonym for Rus, not applied specifically to Halych or Volhynia and adopted by the Moscovites only in the sixteenth century.  The word "Russia" doesn't appear in Latin texts before the sixteenth century.
