Revision as of 17:41, 24 August 2004 by Bogdangiusca (talk | contribs) (i lirë)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)Well, I always thought that the article should be under Illyria, but now there are quite a few pages that link to Ancient Illyria. Should we change all those articles to point to Illyria? At the very least we should probably change the links in the History of Albania series. Dori 15:02, Nov 12, 2003 (UTC)
Ancient Illyria is redirected to "Illyria". We have to change the links in the orientation tables of the History of Albania series. In other cases, the change is not strictky necessary. ~~
- Done. I also fixed some of the double redirects. Dori 23:13, Nov 12, 2003 (UTC)
Nonsense?
Moved this from article. Seems patent nonsense, but if it isn't, rewrite and put back in. Wyllium 23:41, 29 May 2004 (UTC)
It isn't nonsense, but it's a copyvio, so I'm going to delete it from here. RickK 23:42, 29 May 2004 (UTC)
It was misplaced anyway, that's about Illyria (television). --Shallot
Fwiw, I've just moved Illyria (television) to Illyria (Angel) — OwenBlacker 23:28, Jun 27, 2004 (UTC)
i lirë
- The Albanian transliteration i lirë translates to a free person.
Albanian "i lirë" has nothing to with the Illyrians.
"Lirë" is a term borrowed by the ancestors of the Albanians from Latin "liber"="free". ("b" between the vowels disappears on Latin words borrowed in Albanian, just like in the word "horse" lat. cabalus -> alb. kalë.)
The name of Illyria was used long before the Romans came in the Balkans. Bogdan | Talk 17:41, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)
