[edit] Lendians and Lusatians
There is a possibility that the Lusatian Sorbs, known in their own language and in Polish as the Łużyczanie,adjective łużycki, are among their descendants. The term Łużyczanie/łużycki could very well have developed from Lugii. Other derivetive names from the same region recorded in historical sources: (the latin/italin 'g' sound like 'dz' in other systems)
- Bavarian Geographer lendizi
- Widukind licicaviki
- Κωνσταντίνος Ζ΄ Πορφυρογέννητος litzike, linzike, lenzeninov or lenzaniniov
- Abu al-Hasan Ali ibn al-Husayn al-Masudi landzaneh'
- Nestor: Волхомъ бо нашедшемъ на словЂни на дунайския, и сЂдшемъ в них и насилящемъ имъ, словЂни же ови пришедше сЂдоша на ВислЂ, и прозвашася ляхове, а от тЂхъ ляховъ прозвашася поляне, ляхове друзии лутичи, ини мазовшане, ини поморяне.
- Hungarian common word Lengyel
[edit] Can I edit anything without Piotr's surveillance?
Piotrus, please stop it. There is no need to improve my grammar. There is no need for two identical passages following each other. There is no proof that the land of the Lendians was ever controlled by Poland before 1018, although some Polish historians make much out of the Primary Chronicle's statement that Vladimir conquered the territory from the "Lachs" (in fact, the term may be interpreted to refer to the Lendians rather than the Poles of Mieszko). I assure you that Great Poland will not collapse because of my edits. --Ghirla-трёп- 10:15, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
- Please read WP:OWN. Article after your edits is not perfect, and other users have the right to improve it further.-- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk 14:38, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
- You failed to respond to my objections in any meaningful way and proceeded right to revert-warring. I'm not impressed, to say the least. --Ghirla-трёп- 15:25, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
- I am not impressed by your reverting of my style and clarification edits. Lead expansion is recommended by WP:LEAD, style changes by WP:NPOV, your own version states that "At one point in the 970s, the region seems to have been overrun by Mieszko I of Poland" so you are contradicting yourself above when you are saying that's inaccurate, and clarification of what happened in 1340 is again a positive contribution (I do agree with your removal of later history, it's not related). Therefore your reverts are not helpful, and your confusing arguments here are not helping.-- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk 03:31, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
