"Due to"

[edit]

From the lead: "Formed out of a revolt due to land grazing rights in 1902..."

I think this is a misuse of "due to". Surely they weren't revolting because they had rights? I also think "out of" should be reworded, perhaps simply to "during". 216.8.143.101 (talk) 15:35, 10 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the comment. I changed it to "over land grazing rights", which I think is a more accurate description of what was going on. Kaiser matias (talk) 17:17, 10 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

User:Kaiser matias thank u for this articles expansion. But the name should be "REPUBLIC OF GURIA" instead of Gurian Republic. Can you move the name please? Its name is wrongly translated from Russian instead of Georgian name. 108.30.14.88 (talk) 16:30, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

გურიის რესპუბლიკა is Republic of Guria not Gurian Republic. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.30.14.88 (talk) 19:04, 9 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

We must abide by what sources use. Most English-language sources refer to it as the "Gurian Republic", so that is the title used here. Kaiser matias (talk) 19:30, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
that is very unfortunate. if so they translated from russian and is rather sad as it is incorrect name. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.30.14.88 (talk) 16:58, 19 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
