expulsion to Stettin edit

The article stated that the intellectuals were expelled in 1922 "from Petrograd to Szczecin in Poland (then in Germany)".


This sounds historically bizarre.

Either you use the historical names of the event in question, so you write Petrograd and Stettin, as these are the names in 1922, or you use current names but this sounds to me as a historical counterfact.

Would you write that Pieter Stuyvesant landed in New York in 1647 ? Ft93110 (talk) 15:31, 25 February 2014 (UTC)Reply
