Talk:Lithuanian cross crafting

Old move request

I would suggest to rename the article to either Kryždirbystė, Lithuanian cross crafting or cross crafting, as it is defined in the UNESCO list of Masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity Iulius 22:18, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

I'd agree with Kryždirbystė or English version Lithuanian cross crafting--Lokyz 22:59, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

It's on a UNESCO list? Great piece of info! Would it be too much to have all three words in there? Kryždirbiai shows up in some LT references, altho cross crafting does show up the most.Novickas 00:10, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Cross crafting or simply cross making seem perfect. //Halibutt 11:36, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

We're talking about very specific traditon here, so in my opinion adding Lithuania just a way to point it out .--Lokyz 12:59, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

I vote for Lithuanian cross crafting as the title. Novickas 13:24, 16 March 2007 (UTC) It would be nice to have some better photos - the existing ones were scanned out of an old Baltrušaitis book. Novickas 14:18, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

I also agree with that, coz kryždirbiai says nothing for an English reader. So someone should do the renaming stuff under an agreement? I have arranged some photos in the Commons but there could be more of them arround.Iulius 16:30, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

There is also a hill of crosses at the Lithuanian Cultural center in Lemont, Illinois.Pustelnik (talk) 20:21, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

Lithuanian Cross Crafting → Lithuanian cross crafting – No capitalization; not a proper name Staszek Lem (talk) 02:20, 25 March 2020 (UTC)

• Support per nom. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:56, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
• Abstain. Here it is spelled as "Cross-crafting". And here it's capitalized. Any UNESCO references for the proposed spelling? –Turaids (talk) 16:50, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
  • In your first link it is used both with and without hyphen. In the second link it is capped in article title and in the name of the organization, but in the plain text I see both "cross crafting" and "cross-crafting". Meaning there is no established naming, and we must use common sense of English language. Keeping in mind that this term is rather uncommon in English texts, google giving about 120 unique hits.

    • I see the differences in capitalization as an alternation between Lithuanian Cross Crafting as a proper name and cross crafting in general (i.e., a common name), but maybe that's just me. Anyway, as long as the article is not renamed back to kryždirbystė, whatever you decide is fine with me. –Turaids (talk) 22:22, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
• Support per en wiki naming conventions. Renata (talk) 18:54, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
