Emilia Plater as the Belarusian Joan of Arc

Hi, she has been many times referred to as the "Belarusian Joan of Arc" in Belarusian sources. There are examples in notable Belarusian media such as Novy Chas, Charter'97, Argumenty i fakty (Belarus edition) or in a book by notable historical writer Uladzimir Arlou. I see no reason why not to add this to the article - especially since we have a reference to an article at the news portal Delfi.lt as the reference for her as the "Lithuanian Joan of Arc". Suggest adding the following text therefore:

It would be perfect to have some academic sources for both "Belarusian" and "Lithuanian" Joan of Arc. Nonetheless usually Joan of Arc label is throwed at every women in history that hold a gun or sword once in her life, so I would be careful about that. It just isn't something unique Marcelus (talk) 20:25, 23 January 2023 (UTC)

I agree with @Marcelus:. Moreover, we need reliable English-language sources that claim so. Independent news portals, freelance journalism and fanbases are not within that category. Today, she may be known as such by admirers, but not sure whether it follows a historical or scholarly context. I would remove the sentence about Joan of Arc entirely, regardless of whether it is Belarusian, Polish or Lithuanian. It sounds rather unprofessional. Merangs (talk) 22:45, 23 January 2023 (UTC)

The sources do not need to be in English, where do you take this requirement from? Base (talk) 20:38, 26 January 2023 (UTC)

Witkacy: actually I'm not Zivinbudas, and I really sugest to call all the places in english, in en.wikipedia.org, but if you think that Wilno is more popular then Vilnius in present maps, so let it be that way. (Tautvydas)

Witkacy: Can you give any reasonable/logical explanation why in english wikipedia Vilnius should be in polish name, not in english?

...wikipedia Vilnius should be in polish name...

Zivi.. Polish.. not polish...--Witkacy 20:02, 18 July 2005 (UTC)

Firstly, as I mentioned before I'm not Zivi, secondly not sure about this, at least in lithuanian language, languages is lithuanian, polish, english and countries is Lithuania, Poland, England, but maybe in english it's different. Anyway, I don't see answer to my question. (Tautvydas)

Protected page

I have protected this page as per the request at WP:RFPP. It should be noted that both user:Tautvydas and user:Witkacy have broken the Wikipedia:Three revert rulle (3RR) on this article today.

In terms of a compromise, why not say "Born in Vilnius (now called Vilno)" or whichever way round it is? It would be improper for me having protected the page to edit the article now (other than to put the {{protected}} notice on it), so I will leave this just as a start to the discussion. Thryduulf 22:40, 19 July 2005 (UTC)

Because Vilnius was always Vilnius it didn't change the name from Wilno to Vilnius or from Vilnius to Wilno. In terms of compromise we could say "Born in Vilnius (in Polish Wilno)", but it's kind of strange, as it is english wikipedia, and you can always find out how Vilnius is called in Polish by visiting Vilnius page, but in terms of compromise we could do this.

There was a very nice discusion over similar topic (I think Polich-German naming) and I think they have reached agreement about that:

In English WP english naming (englisized current names) should be used for all cities regardless historical period (eg. Vilnius will always be Vilnius (not Wilno or Vilna), and Gdansk (not Danzig), and Kaunas (not Kowno) and etc.)

The same rule applies to all namings, ex. rivers, lakes, regions, mountains and etc.

Namings of other languages and/or periods can be (and must be, in case of dispute) mentioned in main describing article

eLNuko 14:57, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

I removed the anachronism that was there before, but mentioned the modern name of that city. Does it settle the dispute?

BTW, in case a non-informed person wondered what's the problem about: prior to 1945 the city was predominantly Polish and was called Wilno by the locals. After that the Poles were expelled and their place was taken by Lithuanians who moved to what they considered their legitimate capital. The problem with the name itself is that until 1945 it was called Wilno and then the name was changed to Lithuanian spelling. To add flavour and more confusion, before 1919 the Lithuanian spelling of that name was Wilnius, but then the grammar was changed to resemble less the Polish language... Halibutt 18:47, 21 September 2005 (UTC)

Looks like a good solution, although I would simplify it to "Wilno (now Vilnius)". Interesting tidbit there about "Wilnius" as well. Olessi 00:00, 22 September 2005 (UTC)

Plateryte

I'd like to ask why is some Lithuanian name of that person mentioned here? Sure, she might be called Plateryte in Lithuanian, Platerová in Czech, Плятэр in Russian and perhaps a zillion other names, but that doesn't mean we should include all of those in the header. Or do we? //Halibutt 13:54, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

Interestingly, it appears that she did not sign her name Plater in the March 25, 1831, letter included in the article. Anyway, she was born in Lithuania, died in Lithuania, and is buried in Lithuania. And her military activities all took place in Lithuania, not a zillion other places. Perhaps that is why "some Lithuanian name" is mentioned here. Dr. Dan 14:21, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

No, Dr. Dan, she was born in Russia, lived in Russia, and died in Russia. Lithuania didn't exist, Lithuanians themselves used the Polish language. --81.7.98.250 11:33, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

So are you saying that she was Russian? Dr. Dan 13:54, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

What was mother language of Emilia Plater? Lithuanian? Did anybody from relatives called her as Pliateryte? Did Emilia Platerowna ever called herself as Emilija Pliaterytė? Was Liksna manor where she grew up in Lithuania? Now 200 years after appears Lithuanian name - this looks like retrospective falsification. Well, this name could be used within Lithuanian WP, cause in lithuanian all names are lithuanised. Even David Copperfield in lithuanian is called as lt:Deividas Koperfildas, but such name would be a nonsence if used in English WP. 81.7.98.250 11:22, 22 October 2007 (UTC)

To Dr.Dan Actually, she used her polish name in the March 25, 1831, letter included in the article. You can read there 'Platerówna' - in polish language and grammar those times ending '-ówna' (Plater'-ówna') signifies that the woman was unmerried (maiden).77.112.41.127 (talk) 17:36, 27 April 2008 (UTC)Poznaniak

Don't need to source the same thing three times

I don't know what the point of this edit/edit summary is [1] except possibly to change the links under the guise of adding redundant refs. The "Polish-Lithuanian" is already reffed twice. No point in having a third ref. And the proper link is obviously to Polish-Lithuanian (adjective) since that is the description used in sources.VolunteerMarek 06:24, 25 April 2012 (UTC)

The point should be straight forward obvious to neutral contributors. There is increasing attempt by polish nationalists to remove everything that is Lithuanian. Just if anybody look few edits before, there was exactly the same attempt [2] and the provided source perfectly illustrates that English sources identifies this person as Lithuanian as well. M.K. (talk) 10:10, 25 April 2012 (UTC)

Polish nationalists removing everything that is lithuanian? Pot, meet kettle. 144.132.72.78 (talk) 14:43, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

"Polish nationalists blah blah blah". Really it gets tiresome. Especially when the so-called "Polish nationalists" are putting into articles that the person was "Polish-Lithuanian" while Lithuanian editors try to remove all references to Poland or Poles from an article(s) about people who very clearly have/had strong connections to Poland (language, self-identification, culture, etc.). I know it's a failure to assume good faith - which isn't required in cases like this - but this kind of nonsense has been going on for ever and any attempt at compromise (like describing such persons as "Polish-Lithuanian" despite the fact that most sources refer to them as Poles from Lithuania) seems to only embolden the *real* nationalist edit warriors, like M.K above.

The provided source illustrates that she was from Lithuania, a Pole from Lithuania, or more precisely a Polish-Lithuanian as the term was used at the time she was alive and as it is used in sources today - hence the link to the proper article. She certainly wasn't a "modern Pole" or a "modern Lithuanian" which is what M.K is trying to link to.VolunteerMarek 15:57, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

This is straight forward personal attack And provided source illustrates following ...one of the first female soldiers, the Lithuanian, Emilia Plater.... And I have no time to discuss issues with individuals who failed to meet proper way of conduct on talk pages included. M.K. (talk) 19:13, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

Look here buddy, you're the one who started ranting about "Polish nationalists". You want a civil conversation then act with civility. There was no personal attack here made by anyone but you. What is the source you're referring to? I don't see a link or anything. "Lithuanian" could - and probably does - in this context mean the same thing as "New Yorker". A person who happened to reside in Lithuania, just like some people reside in New York state. The best way to compromise on the description of this very obviously Polish person (with German roots) is to describe here as Polish-Lithuanian.

And if you don't have time to discuss, then sure as hell you shouldn't have time to edit war, so stop it.VolunteerMarek 19:24, 27 April 2012 (UTC)

Prose review:

• In Emilia Plater was born in Vilnius (Wilno) into a noble Polish–Lithuanian Plater family of the Plater coat of arms. "of the Plater coat of arms" seems odd to say the least. Does that add anything to the sentence? I assume that every noble family has a coat of arms, so what makes this one special?
  • I reworded the sentence to sound better, but it is good practice in article of Polish nobility to mention their coat of arms. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 12:26, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
• She is described by her nationality as either Polish, Polish–Lithuanian, Lithuanian or by the place of her birth, as "from Lithuania". seems awkward. I'd go for "She is described as either Polish, Polish-Lithuanian or Lithuanian by nationality and as a Lithuanian by her place of birth."
  • Fixed. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 12:26, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
• Is there any benefit to understanding of the article that the term "Dźwina" is used in addition to Daugavpils?
  • Different languages mean that different sources use different names for many locations. It is common practice in C/EE topics to mention popular alternate second name for such locales, following WP:NCGN. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 12:26, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

• In 1959, she was made the name-sake of a bulk carrier Polish Merchant Navy ship, the MS Emilia Plater. sounds weird. How about "In 1959, the MS Emilia Plater, a Polish Merchant Navy bulk carrier, was named after her." The fact is the ship was made a name-sake, not Plater.

• The Stefan Kieniewicz paragraph (the last one in the "Legacy" section seems misplaced. It seems to fit the best in the "Uprising" section.

MOS:

• Do not use "Emilia" to refer to Plater. Per WP:SURNAME each reference subsequent to the first one should be by her surname only. Pronouns are, of course alright, but do take care not to produce confusion who is referred to exactly. There is at least one such reference in Emilia was fascinated by Goethe and Schiller, who she could read in the original German language. Please check the article for more.
  • Fixed.--_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 12:26, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
• There is also at least one instance where "Emilia Plater" is used as a reference beyond the first mention. Such occurrences should also be changed to "Plater" per WP:SURNAME.
  • Fixed.--_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 12:26, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
• Likewise, per WP:SURNAME, Goethe, Schiller and F. De Villaine references need be expanded to include their first names.
  • Fixed.--_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 12:26, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
• The article provides Lithuanian toponyms accompanied by Polish counterparts. Per WP:MODERNPLACENAME I would say that it is proper to use whatever set of names is used by English-language sources on Plater. Please check those and select either Lithuanian or Polish, and wikilink them to corresponding articles on wiki, where translation to the other language is available. If those sources use both, in equal proportions, use modern names per said policy. Naturally I would expect Lithuanian and Polish authors writing in English to use Lithuanian and Polish toponyms respectively, so avoid consulting those for this purpose.
  • WP:NCGN should take precedence to avoid edit wars, which plagued Polish-Lithuanian topics before NCGN became accepted. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 12:26, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
    • I appreciate the potential problem there. Could you point me to a GA/A/FA which applies that convention? The WP:NCGN specifically says that "There are other cities for which policy is still debated, such as Vilnius, which in various contexts is referred to as Vilnius, Wilno or Vilna." therefore I doubt that there is an established policy in this case.--Tomobe03 (talk) 12:49, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
      • Hmmm, probably most of Category:GA-Class_Poland-related_articles follows that convention. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 02:35, 13 May 2013 (UTC)
        • Right. Let me consult someone about that, ok?
• Per WP:LEAD, the lede should summarize the article. In that sense, please add information that Plater raised a military unit, fought in specific battles etc.
  • I expanded the lead, but no battle seems noteworthy enough to merit mention.--_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 12:26, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
    • The prose mentions the Battle of Prestowiany. If the battle itself was not notable it alone would not warrant a separate article, but it is alright to mention it here.--Tomobe03 (talk) 13:26, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
      • If you want to add it go ahead, but personally I don't think minor engagements should be mentioned in lead. And as far as I can tell, all her battles were minor. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 02:35, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Additional referencing note:

• There are a lot of repeated references (especially 10 and 13). That in itself is alright, but if one sentence is supported by for example ref 10, and the following sentence by the same ref 10, it is sufficient to place the reference at the end of the second sentence (to support both preceding ones). Should someone challenge the first one, the situation is easily explained. Right now, there are paragraphs supported by a single reference (13) repeated no less than six times within the single paragraph. In that case a single ref 13 at the end of the paragraph would do.
  • Repeated references come primarily from the fact that the primary source is a 2-page biography in the Polski Słownik Biograficzny, so those two pages are cited a lot. I prefer to reference every single sentence per my essay at User:Piotrus/Wikipedia:Why most sentences should be cited. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 12:26, 12 May 2013 (UTC)
    • That's not a matter of GACR anyway, just though to point out the redundancy on the base of aesthetics. No worries.--Tomobe03 (talk) 12:37, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

Request for a second opinion

A request for second opinion has been made regarding an issue raised by this review. Namely, I would like to have a second opinion on proper application of MOS, specifically WP:NCGN policy in terms of toponyms contained in the prose text provided in Lithuanian and in Polish at the same time.--Tomobe03 (talk) 08:31, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Sure. Quoting from NCGN: "In some cases, a compromise is reached between editors to avoid giving the impression of support for a particular national point of view." On Polish-Lithuanian subjects, it is customary to mention both names in some context, like in the biographies of Polish people who lived in Lithuania. This custom is an extension of Talk:Gdansk/Vote: "For Gdansk and other locations that share a history between Germany and Poland, the first reference of one name in an article should also include a reference to other names, e.g. Danzig (now Gdańsk, Poland) or Gdańsk (Danzig). An English language reference that primarily uses this name should be provided on the talk page if a dispute arises." (just replace German with Lithuanian...). --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 09:03, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Just for the record, I'm leaning towards the solution proposed by Piotrus, but this is just to be on the safe side.--Tomobe03 (talk) 09:06, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

I did some more research on this. The passage you presented as "Quoting from NCGN" simply is not in the NCGN. Please recheck for any changes to policies before offering such a "quote" next time around. However, there is a special part of MOS regulating this specific situation: WP:MOSPOL, therefore the geographic names usage is MOS-compliant except in case of:

• Prastavoniai - Lithuanian term should be used first, Polish second.

All other GNs seem fine.--Tomobe03 (talk) 09:24, 14 May 2013 (UTC)

Reordered that myself per WP:MOSPOL. Hope you don't mind.

Np, but the passage I quote is there in the Wikipedia:NCGN#Multiple_local_names section? --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 03:36, 15 May 2013 (UTC)

• Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20100304213516/http://dziedzictwo.polska.pl/gal/5/7/233/med.jpg to http://dziedzictwo.polska.pl/gal/5/7/233/med.jpg

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.
