message: I see no harm in having the Polish name in the article, it seems to be used by several publications (, ).-- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk  22:52, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

text: Unfortunately, only one book in English (and please forget the German book altogether as it is a dictionary of anonyms and pseudonyms). So it should be beyond reproach. Unfortunately, it was "Published 1984 Institute of History of the Polish Academy of Sciences" !). Worse, I had the audacity to click the starbel link and found more: "Including an annotated Edition of the 1887 Inventory Compiled by Stanisław Ptaszycki." If Ptaszycki included Polish versions of the names of contributors to the 1887 version, you've got a problem: perhaps Patricia Kennedy was then forced to stick to Polish versions. In any case it does not look like a unilingual English book. --Paul Pieniezny 18:13, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Even the memorial bulletin of the University of Vilnius gives both the Polish and Lithuanian name. (). //Halibutt 18:59, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Can you even imagine the importance of Karolina to the Polish culture in comparison of importance of Daukantas and Basanavičius to the modern Lithuanian one? You have no reason to compare them at all. I consider your practice misleading and false.Iulius (talk) 18:08, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: When you'll begin to read sources you provide? take a look at page 83 "only the name of first modern Lithuanian - Simonas Daukantas - is written in Lithuanian."--Lokyz 19:39, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

text: No surprise - it lists names of all alumni in two or more languages, even Polish ones.Iulius 19:30, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

text: But then why not to use Russian as it was official in the Empire back then?Iulius 22:10, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: And do we have sources for that? If so - let's add the Russian name as well. Why not? //Halibutt 10:49, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

text: But by no means as coeaqual to the Lithuanian ones and in bold. That is unacceptable practice.Iulius (talk) 17:15, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: But that's how many of our Lithuanian friends use Lithuanian names in, say, the article on Karolina Proniewska. And that's how the WP:MoS suggests we did that. Either we apply the rules to all articles equally, or we scrap the rule altogether. Consistency is the key to resolve the issues Lithuanian wikipedians have with people of mixed Polish and Lithuanian culture. Otherwise this dispute will never end. //Halibutt 16:41, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

message: I would like to request an exact citation and translation from the  Giedrius Subačius (6 2004) source, for support  this edit. I have troubles opening the pdf file. M.K. 06:33, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Then use a different pdf reader. Sorry, but "my glasses broke" is not a valid rationale for tagging a source as dubious. //Halibutt 08:40, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Well what is the problem to give an page numbers and provide citation, as you the one who added this source to the main space? M.K. 08:56, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't like non-English citations and quotes in wiki article citation tags. Go and check for yourself, the link is right there. //Halibutt 09:35, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

message: Could someone elaborate Because of the suppression of the Filomat and Filaret student movements at Vilnius University, he received his diploma in 1825. a little please. Not understandable without further knowledge. --Gf1961 (talk) 14:39, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

message: The painter of the portrait is Jonas Zenkevičius; this is verified news, based on the inspection of the original painting. I have these news directly from the present owner of the painting; there is painter's signature on the painting. Politics aside, I quote the Lithuanian version of the painter's name, and as to the Polish version, I do not know it.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.219.45.2 (talk) 14:08, 29 December 2011 (UTC)
