Talk:Bender, Moldova

message: The city is called BENDERY. An all supported politically correct move made this article laughable. I am not a fan of the breakaway republic, but NOWHERE in the city can you see the name Bender. Also a majority of the people who live there, also ethnically from Moldova, don't use it. But in the name of political correctness Wikipedia will gave the name Bender and not the one that is on the city gates, railway station etc. Sad.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.253.103.139 (talk) 23:36, 10 August 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: The Wikipedia articles in the English language about cities like Moscow and The Hague could be called Moskva and Den Haag, respectively, but those are not the names commonly used in English. So besides historical reasons, and possibly political correctness, there could be a linguistic motivation here. But I'm not a native English speaker. I'm Dutch, and it doesn't bother me at all that the article about The Hague is not called Den Haag :). I understand in the case of Bender(y) there is more political/ethnic tension involved, unfortunately.145.97.223.96 (talk) 22:49, 3 May 2014 (UTC)
