The result of the move request was: no consensus. Editors are split between Liberty and Equality (political party) and Wolność i Równość, depending on the prominence of the English name. (non-admin closure) — Newslinger talk 20:18, 24 June 2019 (UTC)Reply


Union of the Left (Poland)Liberty and Equality – The party's current name is Wolność i Równość which could be translated as either Freedom and Equality or Liberty and Equality.

  • Comment. The question is, is it commonly seen in English translation? If not, it's not our place to provide one. That's not what WP:UE requires. -- Necrothesp (talk) 12:55, 22 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

I could live with that. Charles Essie (talk) 03:26, 14 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
  • I am not seeing any indication that this entity is referred to as "Liberty and Equality" in English news media. bd2412 T 12:15, 13 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
That doesn't matter. This is the party's official name. Charles Essie (talk) 03:26, 14 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
The point that's being made is that Wolność i Równość may be its official name, but the translation Liberty and Equality is not seen in English-language sources. It would be best to move it to Wolność i Równość, since WP:UE does not require us to translate foreign terms that are not commonly seen in translation in English-language sources. -- Necrothesp (talk) 09:01, 14 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
