replies: text: ::Iacobe we definitely want -i. Троцкий => Trockij translit => Trotsci latine (agree with Alex's point above about z=>s. But as for c/k, part of me thinks we should honor the slavicity and go with k. Trotscius looks well formed to my eye, I wonder if there be attestations. He's certainly old enough...--Ioshus (disp) 22:13, 15 Ianuarii 2007 (UTC)
well keep in mind that the rule of not latinizing the orthography of names is only meant to apply to languages that use the latin alphabet. there was at one point extensive discussion on how slavic names should be transliterated, mainly between Alexander Gerashchenko, myself, and possibly Myces as well. in the end, I basically decided to let Gospodin Gerashchenko do it however he wanted. but maybe his opinion should be solicited ;-) --Iustinus 23:06, 15 Ianuarii 2007 (UTC)

So if you're transliterating, you choose something like Trotskii, but if you're using an attested form that he himself may have approved of, you go with Trotsky. Some of the inconsistency can be avoided with Trotscius. IacobusAmor 00:54, 16 Ianuarii 2007 (UTC)

text: I would say Trotsky followed the official transliterations of his time of the respective (pace Iustinus) countries. In Germany the authorised translation of "My life" by Alexandra Ramm was: "Leo (sic) Trotzki - Mein Leben." Leo Trotski seems to me the most adequate form according to the rules of our vicip. Trotscius would be something like Hegelius or Goethius, what we also have. --Alex1011 21:44, 20 Aprilis 2007 (UTC)
