A note on the translation ... edit

There are several issues related to current English title of this article. Basic fact: translation "True Montenegro" does not correspond to "Права Црна Гора" (native name of the political party in question). Term "True Montenegro" corresponds to "Истинска Црна Гора" (compare: Serbian True Orthodox Church stands for "Српска истинска православна црква"). Correct English translation for "Права Црна Гора" is "Proper Montenegro", but it seems that damage is already done throughout internet via this article and its incorrect title. It should also be noted that term Proper Montenegro is a traditional synonym for Old Montenegro ("Стара Црна Гора"), and traditional term "True Montenegro" (Истинска Црна Гора) also relates to that subject. Therefore, it is quite improper to use that historical term as a title for a recently created (2018) political party. Taking all that into account, correct English name for article on this political party should be: Proper Montenegro (political party). Maybe it is not to late to correct this, before incorrect translation becomes the common name. But if it is already to late, at least we should move current title to True Montenegro (political party) and transform "True Montenegro" into a redirect to Old Montenegro since it is a traditional synonym for that historical term.
