[edit] Similarity

Now that the unnecessary and almost childish banter has been put away in Archive 3, I return to my question (which I asked in good faith and in earnest). It is, if some of the participants in the debate regarding Gucevicius' nationality see any similarity in the recent debate concerning Jan Dzierzon? In a nutshell, the Polish side appears to be claiming that Dzierdon's name, his mother's maiden name, and the location of his birth, prove his Polish origins. The German claim rests largely on the basis of his citizenship and that the majority of his work was performed in the German language, in what was Germany. Perhaps an oversimplification, but I think that's the gist of it (excluding tombstones and a few other tidbits). In fairness to the German position, I believe they are claiming that his place of birth was German prior to the Partitions of the PLC (not sure). Perhaps analyzing this debate can help in trying to understand both positions in the debate concerning Gucevicius. Dr. Dan 03:53, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] "NPOV" of Halibutt

If Latin: Migance, then Polish must be Migańce.
Why for NPOV is so necessary to transcribe Lithuanian names into Polish: Szymon Masul?
Original source in church records writes: babtisavi infantem n(omi)ne Laurentium patris Symoni Masulis et Matris Catharinae Masulowa de villa Migance, but not as (original Polish: Catherine Masulowa née Ziekonaycia).Orionus 12:25, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
