Has anyone thought of rendering the name of this voivodeship in English as Holy Cross Voivodeship? 83.9.19.149 03:18, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

  • I also don't know why in English Wiki it's Świętokrzyskie. In other languages names are: Woiwodschaft Heiligkreuz, Voïvodie de Sainte-Croix, Voivodato de Santa Cruz, Voivodato della Santacroce, Voievodatul Sfintei Cruci, Voivodat de Santa Creu, Sanktakruca Provinco, Szentkereszt vajdaság etc... Why in English Misplaced Pages some people prefere to use very hard to pronounce "Świętokrzyskie"? How many people from NYC, London, Toronto, Cape Town, Dublin or Sydney are able prounce tipical polish "ś"? It should be rather simple Holy Cross Voivodeship!--Spacejam2 (talk) 18:31, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

Please cease moving Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship

Per the MOS, the article is at the consensus title. Ajh1492 (talk) 18:50, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

Let's start discussion one more time! You don't have monopol for English!--Spacejam2 (talk) 19:34, 29 July 2011 (UTC)
I don't know what a monopol is . . . I suggest you bring up your concerns at the WikiProject Poland talk page. I would also note that this page is used as example in the Manual of Style to use the Polish name if the English Name is not established . . . Link: http://en.wikipedia.org/Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style_(Poland-related_articles)#Administrative_divisions
Plus the Voivodeship refers to itself as Świętokrzyskie in English. Ajh1492 (talk) 19:57, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

LGBT-free zone

WP:RSes are reporting that district authorities have declared this Voivodeship as a "LGBT-free zone". This seems to be rather pertinent information on this Voivodeship. Content was removed in diff. Icewhiz (talk) 09:36, 15 August 2019 (UTC)

The article you created itself does not pass notability and the material certainly is inappropriate for a geographic general level article such as this one. Additionally, your mass insertion of this text into multiple articles at once simply because I suggested the material be merged into LGBT rights in Poland is a textbook example of WP:POINT and WP:BATTLEGROUND. You even tried to insert it into articles that are completely unrelated to the topic .Volunteer Marek (talk) 14:19, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
The notability of the article (that does clearly passes GNG) is immaterial for inclusion here. The regional assembly declared all of this Voivodeship a LGBT-free zone - this is clearly relevant to this article. Possibly, we should also have a category. Icewhiz (talk) 14:22, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
No, the notability of the article (which clearly fails GNG) issue is relevant although not essential. It's an *additional* reason not to add it here. These are geographic articles about administrative structure. Please note that there's no other kind similar material in here. This is not at all relevant to how the district system in Poland is structured. Clearly.
(This comment applies to all the other Voivodeship articles where you tried to cram this text in. I am not going to waste my time writing or copying the same point multiple times simply because you went on a WP:POINTy spree across multiple articles).Volunteer Marek (talk) 14:29, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
The administrative structure here has decided that a defining characteristic of this structure is exclusion of LGBT. Whereas 12 other Voivodeships do not exclude LGBT, this Voivodeship decided to exclude LGBT. Icewhiz (talk) 14:38, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
No, this is straight up false and no source says anything like that. Stop making stuff up. What you have here is some shitty politicians in the district saying shitty things. Shitty politicians say shitty things all the time. This article is about the administrative and geographic divisions of this district and how it fits into the general administrative structure in Poland. This article is not Things which have happened in Świętokrzyskie Voivodeship article.Volunteer Marek (talk) 14:47, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
