Seems like there's a dispute about whether Lithuania should be considered a Northern European country or not...... Maybe we can discuss this issue here so hopefully we can build a ] and resolve the issue. I honestly don't care either way but I wanted to hear y'alls opinions on this thing. -- ] ] ] 18:03, 28 April 2023 (UTC)

:Officially by UN as well Lithuanian government claims that they’re Northern European countries. If Latvia and Estonia are considered to be stated as Northern European countries in their wiki page even though all three countries are Baltic States then so should Lithuania be considered as Northern European. Especially that it’s agreed widely but international community that three Baltic states are part of Northern Europe. ] (]) 19:39, 28 April 2023 (UTC)
::Misplaced Pages is edited by individual people and not by governments or international organizations. In addition, everything is based on sources so Latvia's and Estonia's pages can list whatever they want. I would also like to point out that this is not the first time that you changed the geographic location against the consensus. Furthermore, Lithuania is neither eastern or northern European country. This kind of division (eastern or northern) is based purely on personal preference. I already wrote above that there is a note about the division in the first sentence of the page so please look through sources in it before proceeding to waste everyone's time. – ] 20:08, 28 April 2023 (UTC)
:::And the page must focus on facts, because the Baltic countries are geographically emphasized as Northern European states.

:::::{{reply|MatasLife}} And the facts are in the note, which you keep ignoring. The {{tq|because the Baltic countries are geographically emphasized as Northern European states|q=yes}} statement is completely false, because northern, eastern, central, western and southern are geopolitical groupings, which is not the same as geographical location. In addition, {{tq|Estonia and Latvia, both countries, also have disputes about whether they belong in Eastern or Northern Europe, but they decided - Northern in their wiki page.|q=yes}} – there was no discussion about that in either ] or ], while for Estonia there was one discussion at ] (with the second to last comment being the most reasonable in that whole discussion). – ] 04:29, 29 April 2023 (UTC)

== Incorrect preposition used in the section "Efforts to Restore Statehood" ==

Hello. Per the second paragraph, second sentence of "Efforts to Restore Statehood" ... please note, the correct preposition in this case is 'on', not, 'of'. This is a very important distinction. Pressure or repression against the Catholic Church of Lithuania was applied by the Tsar ON the Catholic Church of Lithuania. The phrase currently reads, "pressure OF the Catholic Church", which implies that the pressure came from the Catholic Church of Lithuania against itself (which makes no sense in this context), when it was actually coming from Tsarist Russia against the Catholic Church of Lithuania. ] (]) 07:03, 27 December 2024 (UTC)

GDP(PPP)

Average income per capita in Lithuania is not more than 1000 Eur, how did you get USD 54000 average income per capita per year ? this makes EUR 4000 per month. Stop lying. 86.38.62.82 (talk) 06:52, 2 April 2024 (UTC)

Please familiarize yourself with the difference between GDP, GNI and, let's say, gross average wage. Also, WP:CIVIL. -- Mindaur (talk) 09:07, 2 April 2024 (UTC)
