Talk:Kazimierz Świątek

message: Do we really have to so extensively cover the subject's nationality and ethnicity? The subject's official biography makes no mention at all of Poland, it doesn't even contain the word "Polish". Do we have any sources at all which state that the subject considers himself to be Polish? 
Also, do we have any sources which state that the subject was a "Polish Catholic priest"? I am unfamiliar with the Polish Catholic church, isn't it actually the Roman Catholic church?Varsovian (talk) 14:59, 10 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: It's a tricky one. I have no problem with listing him in both Belarusian victims of Soviet repressions and Polish victims of Soviet repressions as he was a victim of Soviet repression while Polish and while Belarussian (would you like to make the appropriate addition or shall I?). We can't, however, list him as a Polish cardinal: he is ethnically Polish but he is Belarussian cardinal. As for Polish Catholics, I'm not sure: he certainly was a Polish Catholic but now he is a Belarussian Catholic and it appears that he chooses to be Belarussian rather than Polish. With regard to the Polish Roman Catholic Church issue: firstly it's the 'Roman Catholic church in Poland' not the 'Polish Roman Catholic church'; and secondly do we really need to specify it? The article already says that he lived in Poland during the interbellum period. Varsovian (talk) 16:20, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Just for the sake of clarity, which categories do you propose adding? Also, to the best of my knowledge most Poles from the Kresy were not only given the option to leave the USSR but were refused the option to stay in the USSR! Varsovian (talk) 16:44, 12 March 2010 (UTC)
