Title change
editHi @Artemis Andromeda, I notice you have changed the title of the page from Kociewians to Kocievians - the original title was chosen to correspond with the Kociewie title page. Please see the discussion on the topic here: Talk:Kociewie. Wikociewie (talk) 11:34, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
- Hi @Wikociewie.
- I'm sorry for trouble. Let me start by saying that I was not aware of that discussion. And about why I changed the name. I belive that suffix "-vian" is grammatically correct in this case, as opposed to "-wian". Also, as a few examples of simlar cases can be named Vilamovians, Cracovians (ethnic group), or Varsovian (demonym of inhabitant of Warsaw). That's of the top of my head but I'm sure there much more cases like this. Also, all of mentioned examples are also names of groups of people from Poland (but I'm sure there are also cases using suffix "-vian" from outside that country). I hope that explains my decision.
