Title capitalisation edit

The following discussion is closed and will soon be archived.

In the article title we have capitalised "soviet". Is "soviet" a proper noun? Or is "Irish Soviet" a title? If neither is the case, should this not be retitled to "Irish soviets". (Limerick Soviet is capitalised because it is a proper title/name. But "Irish Soviet(s)" isn't a title. Right?) Guliolopez (talk) 11:49, 1 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

@Guliolopez: Agree, before knowing what the article was about I thought it referred so Soviet as a nationality. --Jamez42 (talk) 12:23, 1 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

Irish edit

When was the term "Sóivéidí na hÉireann" invented? When I was learning Irish we didn't even have the letter V. It would be ahistorical to give the impression now that anyone used the term "Sóivéidí na hÉireann" in 1919-22, unless there is some proof.78.19.192.27 (talk) 13:06, 28 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hi. The term "sóivéid" has been in the bunachar for some time. And used in the Irish label for the USSR (Aontas na bPoblachtaí Sóivéadacha Sóisialacha (APSS)) since at least the 1960s. In the sense here, TG4 ran a documentary titled "Sóivéidí na hÉireann" about a decade ago. Often Irish language labels are derived from synth or original-research or neologism. That doesn't appear to be the case here. Guliolopez (talk) 17:16, 28 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
