Moved to Tatars in Lithuania. After much-extended time for discussion, there is a clear consensus among participants that a move to the alternative proposal of "Tatars in Lithuania" would be a satisfactory outcome. Several boldface "oppose" !votes specifically endorse this alternative. Therefore, there is a clear consensus that the article should be moved away from its present title, and a substantial majority either favoring or expressing acceptance of the alternative proposal.

Lithuania TatarsLithuanian Tatars – Currently Lithuanian Tatars redirects to Lipka Tatars, who are actually Polish-Lithuanian Tatars (Tatars of Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth). Lembit Staan (talk) 20:31, 7 January 2021 (UTC) Lembit Staan (talk) 20:31, 7 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

  • Support. Well, Lipka Tatars and Lithuania Tatars as such, are the same community. In the current arrangement, there is little sense in having an article for Tatars in Lithuania (Lithuania Tatars) and an article for Tatars in Belarus and Poland (Lipka Tatars). Moreover, in the Lipka Tatars article, it is written in the infobox - Lietuvos totoriai. Both articles should be fused, the articles concern one and same community. Plus, the Lipka Tatar article already has the boxes "Ethnic groups in Lithuania" and "Ethnic groups in Poland", which concern the modern countries. Lipka Tatars, while being of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, they were only in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania 1300s-1569, and even in the PLC, the Tatars maintained themselves mostly in the former GDL (while not being exclusively limited to).--Itzhak Rosenberg (talk) 07:54, 12 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Support. "Lithuania Tatars" is just not English. A hatnote is fine to point to the Lipka Tatars. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:30, 14 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose Support "Tatars in Lithuania" to unambiguously refer to the population in Lithuania, the ethnic group already has a separate article Lipka Tatars. I would also support a merge. (t · c) buidhe 00:59, 15 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
