That makes it about 80% of the sources. Clearly more than the 10% needed to include an alternative name in the parentheses.radek (talk) 22:16, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Out of curiosity, Radeksz, does the word "Zwierzyniec " mean something in the Polish language? What exactly is the etymology of "Zwierzyniec "? Dr. Dan (talk) 01:05, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure how this is relevant and I know you know enough Polish to know the answer to your own question. Ok, now that there's obviously extensive usage of Zwierzyniec in English literature can we put it back in as an alt name in parentheses?radek (talk) 17:01, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Try answering my question, it might be helpful for those who might not know to answer to this question (those English speakers on English Wikipedia who do not speak Polish, or understand Polish) posed to you. Maybe, after you answer the question, they can also help in deciding the relevancy of your WP:Undue edit better than you or I can. Dr. Dan (talk) 01:40, 11 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

If you have something to say, or an argument to make, common courtesy (i.e. civility) suggests that you come out and say it rather try to play these irrelevant games. Obviously you know what the word means so why are you asking me? If there is something you wish to say to these English speakers who do not speak Polish on Wikipedia than say it.radek (talk) 01:50, 11 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The question was to you. Common courtesy (i.e. civility) suggests that you answer it. I think it's quite relevant. Dr. Dan (talk) 02:16, 11 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not going to bother answering irrelevant questions whose purpose is apparently to derail the discussion from the issue at hand - Wikipedia guidelines on alternative names, use of Zwierzyniec in many English language sources. A Wikipedia talk page isn't a search engine and I'm not Jeeves.radek (talk) 18:54, 11 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I realize you're not Jeeves, you're Radeksz. O.K., let me bother you with this question then (please don't sigh). Please post the use of " Zwierzyniec " that you claim are in "many" English sources on this page. Better yet since you also claim..."there's obviously extensive usage of Zwierzyniec in English literature". Please show us where this extensive usage in English literature exists on this page too.

Why are you asking me to do something which I already did?radek (talk) 00:15, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I see. You think you're being funny. How about being constructive?radek (talk) 00:16, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I see. You didn't really mean literature. Dr. Dan (talk) 00:22, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed[edit]

Indeed what?radek (talk) 17:10, 15 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed like maybe your info is another misrepresentation of wiki policy. Specifically your google hits at the top of this page:"Zverynas Lithuania" - 8 google book hits [4]

"Žvėrynas Lithuania" - 8 google book hits (same ones) [5] "Zwierzyniec Lithuania" - 31 google book hits [6]

"That makes it about 80% of the sources. Clearly more than the 10% needed to include an alternative name in the parentheses.radek (talk) 22:16, 4 August 2009 (UTC)" Dr. Dan (talk) 17:05, 18 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

How is it a misrepresentation?radek (talk) 17:12, 18 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Because your data is incorrect and inaccurate. Dr. Dan (talk) 04:19, 10 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I'm not sure what you are talking about Clarification please.--Jacurek (talk) 04:44, 10 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

(outdent) I'm talking about this [7]. Have you read it? If you have, it should clarify everything. Dr. Dan (talk) 17:06, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, thanks. Have you?--Jacurek (talk) 17:20, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
