I think the title shoud be changed to : Lithuanian cities in other languages--Jacurek (talk) 18:32, 18 August 2009 (UTC) Eventually "places", but not "Places".Xx236 (talk) 06:15, 20 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Kudos

I think much of the recent work being done here is good and will be helpful to making the project better. I think the work of user: Mikej007 is especially noteworthy and deserving of praise. Dr. Dan (talk) 17:12, 24 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

German and Latvian

edit

It would be also helpfull to include German and Latvian names for historical linguistic studies.--Lokyz (talk) 19:35, 25 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

To be done. Will appreciate any help for that.--Mikej007 (talk) 20:50, 25 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Transliteration

edit

My experience has been that including transliterations of Cyrillic is vital for English language readers. VЄСRUМВА  ♪  17:49, 30 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Samogitian

edit

What about adding a Samogitian column? It wouldn't be hard to find correspondences, considering that there is a Samogitian (Žemaitėška) Wikipedia and that some are already listed in their respective English articles. For example: Kaunas>Kaun, Plungė>Plongė, Šiauliai>Šiaulē... In order not to clutter the table, I suggest to separate the Cyrillic from the Latin forms (Окмяны/Okmiany > Окмяны / Okmiany, not in different columns) so, if a row gets too long, the Russian or Belarussian name would go down in a new paragraph. Also, what's the reason behind the order of the languages? Personally, I would arrange them according to their language family: Lithuanian, {Samogitian}, Latvian, Polish, Belarussian, Russian, German, Yiddish. --151.41.138.181 (talk) 01:42, 3 September 2011 (UTC)Reply
