My Belarusy edit
Trying to get more Belarusian stuff up to Featured content. I am not sure what yall suggest in putting in here, but since it is a national anthem, I figure you guys have a few suggestions. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 04:26, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
- Personaly, I think perhaps a map showing where Belarusia is, and/or the Belarusian flag might be appropriate to put in there. On the other hand, is it needed to have the entire lyrics quoted in the article? The article states that it is the 'unofficial title' for the anthem; might it make more sence to rename the article to the official (in english, off course =) ) name? Other than that, the article seems to be a bit dry and lacking.. the feeling I get after reading it is pretty much summed up as "And?". How do the population of Belarus react to the anthem and the changes in lyrics? Do they feel pride in the anthem, accepts it or disagree with it? How popular is it to use it? For what occations is it used? WegianWarrior 09:20, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
- I got the law, so I can say when and where it is performed. While "My Belarusy" is the unofficial title, the official title is National Anthem of the Republic of Belarus. I will still keep the article at this title, but I will make a note that the title is unofficial and where the title came from. I have the title in english, but I will make a note of it in the lead. I will also check other articles on national anthem to see what I can find, but I am not sure how a map or flag could be used. The reason why I have the full lyrics here is that the anthem officially has three verses and the refrain repeated 3 times. I can check the reaction and I have saved the other possibly lyrics that could have been adopted in 2002. Do they feel pride in the hymn? I am not sure. If your looking for something about the public reaction like you saw with Russia's hymn, I will try to find it. Zscout370 (Sound Off) 16:33, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
