message: I'm not quite happy with the text and the list about places within the river: I heavily doubt whether Kato Dorio exists at all, this article seems to be the sole reference to it, nothing more in the web, nothing in my maps! If it exists, it's likely a very small settlement.  Also, wondering if Avlona and Dorio refer or should refer to the municipality or the village with the same name. If they mean villages, at least Dorio is quite far away. Also, Neochori (Zacharo) is not very close to the river. Should Stomio (in Figaleia municipality) be mentioned separately, due to the waterfalls?

Talk:Vjosa

message: No ancient author described the Aoos as a traditional boundary between Epirus and Illyria, it is a modern conjecture based on attested ancient tribal territories approximately located by modern scholars. Ancient authors clarified only that areas of Epirote tribes bordered areas of Illyrian tribes. Selecting a quote from an outdated source is not appropriate, Wilkes 1992 is contradicted by Hammond & Wilkes 2012, p. 726:  Furthermore, Wilkes 1992's statement has also been misused with original research as he states that Appian describes for Illyrian territories . The Aoos could have defined a boundary only up to Tepelenë (as clarified by Bowden 2003), the lower valley of the river, both the areas to the right and the left, north of the Ceraunian Mountains, were part of Illyrian territory, as clarified by several recent reliable sources and this article's content (obviously, since those areas are part of the Adriatic coast). Concerning the edit: "Archaic period info moved before classical era", it was not an improvement because the paragraph starts with a general description of the ancient regions where the Aoos flowed, and then provides information about specific local tribal areas and thereafter settlements, with Apollonia mentioned in its relevant historical context. – Βατο (talk) 09:22, 16 February 2024 (UTC)

Talk:Ithome

message: The etymology section needs review, or possibly the opening section does: Reece's view that the original name is Thōmē applies only to the one in Thessaly, and this is perfectly clear from the relevant passage in his book, which comes up in Google Books with a simple search. He even says that the place in Messenia called Ithōmē may have been the source of the change of name for the place in Thessaly, meaning that he considers Ithōmē to be the correct form for the place in Messenia. His sources as he cites them also clearly refer to the place in Thessaly, never to the one in Messenia, including the sources that provide the alternate form Thamai. This article says it's about the place in Messenia, but all this information about the name of the place in Thessaly is given in the etymology section. 96.239.76.157 (talk) 04:28, 17 April 2015 (UTC)

message: Object to South Slavic etymology. Anachronism of over 1000 years. Ossa appears in early Greek lit. and much precedes the development of South Slavic. The movement of the Slavs into Greece is much later. The source is an obvious "Slavic nut" who wants to put all the place names into Slavic for propaganda purposes. More likely to be Luwian.

message: Why is the term Epirus and Northern Epirus used in an article that is clearly about a geographical feature? Neither Epirus nor Northern Epirus exist today as political entities  so it makes no sense to use these two names as a geographical reference. Neither have these terms have ever been used since at least 500 years. There are more modern names with which southern Albania can be identified with, either official like Gjirokastër, Korçë, etc., or unofficial like Labëri, Çamëri, Toskëri, Dropull, Rrëzomë, Kolonjë, Gorë, Opar and many more. As far as i know even Greece doesn't have any official use of the term Epirus. The term "Southern Albania" should be enough for the reader to understand what is being described.
Constantly identifying the south of Albania as Northern Epirus or Ancient Macedonia outside of any historical context is clearly an attempt to associate these regions with irredentist and nationalistic claims.
