User:Altenmann, User:Ymblanter - could you help to fix transliteration. E.g. some entities have diacritics in Category:Districts of Gomel Region.

Also, when you change transliteration, maybe in the same run you can unify "raion" and "rajon" to "district"?

For each of you I saw a move of a district page, and it seems that you have better understanding of the transliteration. So, if I would fix raion/rajon, there would still be the need for someone to review the transliteration - I am not good with that. Derianus (talk) 23:22, 17 October 2014 (UTC)

Overview:

• Category:Districts of Brest Region‎ - X District
• Category:Districts of Gomel Region‎ - X Rajon/Raion (using several diacritic signs) -> unified to X District.
• Category:Districts of Grodno Region‎ - X District
• Category:Districts of Minsk Region‎ - X Raion
• Category:Districts of Mogilev Region‎ - X Raion (using "w" instead of "v")
• Category:Districts of Vitebsk Region‎ - X Raion (having on "ŭ")

• There was no consensus for these moves even though we invested a lot of effort into finding one.--Ymblanter (talk) 09:08, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

  • Amount of time is not relevant. But if you made a good work, you probably have at least a page that summarizes the reasons for each naming variant? Derianus (talk) 15:13, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

For the record: User:Ymblanter in 2013 moved at least two articles from X Raion to Y District [1], [2]. But now he says, there is no consensus. Derianus (talk) 21:25, 31 October 2014 (UTC)
