Szlachta (from German ''Geschlecht'') is nothing else but Polish name for upper class (nobility) and religion not necessary had something to do with it (depends when), i`v got no doubts that by this mean Ostrogski, Radvila (most were protestant btw) or any other Lithuanian/Ruthenian influent family can be considered as a szlachta/nobility, especially if there was equality amongst nobles (well, in theory). I`m not askeing you, but reffering to examples and meaning of a "House" in this context as a synonym of ''family'', ''clan'' etc. I only wanted to be sure that i`m not mistaken. Sorry, but that this name isn`t used to Radvila (or plenty other familyies) doesn`t proove that it`s reserved for Royal Houses.<br />] (]) 23:10, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

::::Ufff :) Well, maybe it`s only my POV, but such things like nobility were solved by Kings/Grand Dukes, Seyms and eventually Emperors. If you thinks that`s the real ''disaster'', i`ll say only that Seym trials about falsitication of nobility were casual element of "politica discussion", especially in XVIIIc. Nationality in present sense doesn`t fit into that conditions, 4 example ] begins with words "'''We ....the nations as Polish as Lithuanian, not less from Ruthenia <sup>]</sup>, Prussia, Samogitia, Masovia, Livonia. Either from all another provintions and lands which to this Respublica belongs...'''". Culturally it wasn`t Polish, nor Lithuanian, neither Ruthenian, but some mix with foreign influences (costumes, weaponary etc). In this melting pot there was going on ] of language and religion (rather ''latinization'', but still) and by our present meaning of national identity we can say that every Polish speaking catholic was ''Polish''. But 4example Mikołaj "the Black" Radvila once wrote to Sigismund II August I with PS: "''Don`t show thish letter to your advisors His Majesty, becouse they`r Polish and we`r Lithuanians...''", note was in Polish of course. If it goes for my opinion, every lord holding CoA was noble, but i`m not convinced if we can put ''szlachta'', magnatery and Royal/Princely familyies to one bag. If it goes for legal side, notice that only Knyaz/Prince title was patrimonial, ofc except of surnames which belonged '''only''' to nobles.
::::Sorry that i`m still bothering you with this question, but ]`s another example, note that every ] is included, whatever if ] (like Ostrogski) or ] (like Chodkiewicz} descendant, but still it doesn`t mean that the "''house''" term reffers only to Royal/Princely lines. Regards
::::] (]) 12:00, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
:::::Wow, nice to hear that words, thanks. Well, i think that all of it made etchnic confusion amongst many people, if it goes for present historiographies, there are some biased/POVed sources, but it`s ''nothing'' compared to medieval "scholars", who in most of cases were "humble servants" of thier masters. Ok, but if you mean ''national borders'' tell me 4 example where`s Lt/Bel border, or Bel/Ukr? I wish it would be so easy. I agree, French revolution and romantism, supression of Russian Empire also made our both national identityies to develop, as well as literature. But look at persons like Mickiewicz, can you tell me which nationality/ethnicy he was?? Royal no doubt, but Princely/Knyaz familyies were "by blood" also royal, only Emperor could give the princely title (like in case of Radvila). Jagiellons were also "elected", so i`m not sure if we can consider it as a typical royal house, neither as some casual ''szlachta''. I really don`t get why to give Polish nobility so ''exotic'' meaning in comparation to rest of feudal-elitar Europe, i mean that there were differences, but rule was everywhere similar. So it doesn`t matter if we consider Ostrogski or other clans as a ''szlachta'', they were noble-elite familyies anyway and as i said religion not necessary was related to it. If it goes for Ostrogski, i`m not sure when they adopted catholicism, or if they ever did it before Zasławscy and Wiśniowieccy inherited thier possesions. ] (]) 00:36, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Sveikas. The story of Lithuanian and Latvian units doing the Nazi's dirty work in Poland is a story I've been personally been told by someone from Poland (not old enough to be a witness). In the reading I've done, there's no record of Latvians (and I would suppose Lithuanians) having ever been deployed so far from the Baltic territory. I'm a bit disturbed that the reference implicating Latvians and Lithuanians is from a magazine and no author is mentioned. The question now is to bring other sources to bear if we editorially believe otherwise. I'm planning to do more work on the Holocaust but I'm only going to have that kind of time later this year. —] (]) 02:05, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

: Ezergailis is the only scholar I've seen who has gone back to original materials to piece together what happened not bases on popular myths...Balts eagerly slaughtering Jews before the Nazis arrived, these were false reports to Berlin for Hitler to manufacture the "Germanless" Holocaust for propaganda purposes--blame the locals for crimes against humanity, as soon as they invaded the Nazis were already "leaking" stories out through a "sympathetic" journalist in Sweden. What the scholars disregard is the reports, also by German officials, that around Kaunas they had to send a German unit out to slaughter Jews in the countryside because the Lithuanians wouldn't go (and how would this look for the Germans if the word got out?). —] (]) 13:25, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

== Removal of ] tag from Virgilijus Noreika article ==

Hello, Lokyz. I noticed that you have removed the ] tag from the talk page of the Virgilijus Noreika article. However, the article itself is still categorized within ], which would put it within the scope of WikiProject Soviet Union. If your removal of the tag is due to the fact that Virgilijus Noreika has nothing to do with the USSR and should not be categorized as a Soviet singer, than I will remove his article from the category. However, if Noreika is rightfully categorized as a Soviet singer, then the WP:USSR tag should be restored. I will leave it up to your judgment whether or not he is within the scope of WP:USSR, but it would be terribly confusing to categorize him as a Soviet singer but not allow the WikiProject to maintain his article. Thank you for your time, and don't worry about making the changes yourself, just let me know one way or the other (Soviet or not) and I'll take care of it. ] (]) 22:40, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
:Answered --] (]) 23:38, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
::The tag was placed there, very simply, because I have been conducting a systematic tagging of all articles within ], and ] is within it, as its name implies. I checked the article before tagging it and noticed that it mentioned that Noreika was active in the late 1950s and 1960s in Lithuania, at which time was the ] (which existed from 1940-1990). Knowing that the Lithuanian SSR was a constituent republic of the Soviet Union, I made the assumption that Noreika, due to his fame in Lithuania during the Soviet period, was within the scope of WP:USSR. I realize that anything to do with the USSR is a sensitive issue to Lithuania and its people due to the nature of its annexation by the Soviet Union during World War II, but by my judgment, I thought that it was an article that was reasonably related to the USSR and merited being included within the WikiProject. I apologize for any difficulties I have caused as a consequence of poor judgment, and please do straighten me out if you believe I am wrong in what I say. I don't want any ill will, and I want to make sure situations like this can be resolved in the future without lengthy dialog. Thanks for your time and best wishes. ] (]) 00:25, 23 June 2008 (UTC)
:::That's a fascinating point I did not realize before. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. But, should I then completely disassociate everything pertaining to the Lithuanian SSR from ]? To me, that would seem a little extreme. What about Estonia and Latvia, whose histories are somewhat similar and feelings about the USSR equally distrusting? Is it okay with you if I continue to add Lithuanian SSR-related articles to WP:USSR, as long as their subjects were notable in the entire Soviet Union? What would you recommend I change about my tagging procedure, if anything? I don't mean to be a pest, but I would just like to establish some guidelines to help resolve this issue.

:::I would like to make one final point, and then I'll just listen to what you would like to tell me: I only add the ] tag to articles within ] or any of its many subcategories. If you find an article with an unwanted tag on it (i.e., out of the scope of the USSR), it would be wonderful if you could remove the category link on the article page as well as the tag on the talk page. Not only will this prevent confusion at WP:USSR, but it will also keep us from bothering you again. Thanks so much for your time and best of luck with all your work concerning Lithuania. Please feel free to contact me and I'm more than willing to help you however I can, even if that means just staying out of your way and not making your work any harder than it need be. Best wishes! ] (]) 00:54, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

:OK, I have. The information you demand a citation for is completely uncontentious. No informed person doubts that it is the truth. Without coming under this heading, you demand an unavailable citation. I have offered to demonstrate link by link that it is the truth, but no, someone has to have written it in a book. Why would anyone? You are of course the owner of your Talk page and can clean it up as you wish, though I believe editing another's contributions on it is also frowned upon.

:: I'd say the citation in this case is necessary not just to confirm that the fact is true, but also to confirm that the fact is important.

This is Lokyz's talk page, where you can send him messages and comments.

I've left Misplaced Pages because I've lost any hope in reaching any possible resolutions in the topics I did thought, to have at least some experience. Because of multiple insults and my character and my integrity slandering, and because unjust "ban forever" from several topics. Please, do not bother me with the issues, that I'm not capable to influence, because of a lifetime (sic!) ban. Thank you. Lokyz (talk) 16:15, 31 August 2018 (UTC)

Arbitration enforcement restrictions: Eastern Europe

In application and enforcement of Misplaced Pages:Requests for arbitration/Digwuren#Discretionary sanctions, in consequence of this AE request, you are

  • banned for three months from making edits related to the topic of Eastern Europe, as described at WP:TBAN, and
  • indefinitely banned from editing articles to change, remove or add names (including translations) in a Eastern European language with respect to a subject that the same article already designates with a name in another Eastern European language. This includes names in other pages that are displayed as part of the article, such as categories, images or templates, and it also forbids moving articles that have a name in a Eastern European language to a name in another language. For the purpose of this ban, "Eastern European language" includes German.

You can appeal this ban as described at Misplaced Pages:Requests for arbitration/Digwuren#Discretionary sanctions, but if you disregard the ban before it is successfully appealed or lifted, you may be blocked without further warning.  Sandstein  07:03, 17 March 2011 (UTC)
