Slovenian? Croatian? Yougoslavian? - rower edit

By data at [1] Janez Pintar was born and died in Ljubljana, Slovenia, and is probable Slovenian. By [2] he was a member of Slovenin roving club Savica, which existed by that name in Ljubljana, Slovenia, and stil operates there under current name Veslaški kljub Ljubljanica.
Data about that can be cros-checked in the [3]. Janez Pintar is mentioned, and by that data he rowed for club Savica; on Olympics 1960 he was member of the national team of Yougoslavia

On the other side, [4] shows his club affiliation the croatian rowing club HVK Mornar from Split, but on the page of this club I can see no data on history at all, so I can't crosscheck there.

Both Slovenia and Croatia used to be parts of a once common country Yougoslavia at the time of Olympics in 1960.

If/when I succeed with the crosscheck at Mornar and data there confirms/aggrees, I shall propose/make change of nationality data in this arcticle, to Slovenian/Yougoslavian rower, and update the references (including templates, when I learn how). --Marjan Tomki SI (talk) 14:59, 29 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for spotting this - I've made a change to the lead. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 15:37, 29 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
Thanks - doing that you also made good example for me how to do that when the time comes for me.

If/when I get more relevant data on this Janez Pintar, I'll propose for inclusion, but in SI pages first, because the article there is also a stub only. Also there is more then one notable Slovenian sportsman with that name: e.g. Janez Pintar, motorcycle racer, champion several years, of Yugoslavia, also several Alpe Adria (international) races winner and later organizer of those races etc. (not necessarily notable for en wikipedia), so that SI disambiguation process should be dealt with there first too.
