Birth/death dates[edit]

This page [1] says that Zivanic was born in 1879 and died in 1953; Britannica says he was born in 1879 (1878 old style) and died in Paris in 1947. A lot of Web sources agree with the 1953 death date, which means either they're all copying one wrong source, or there's some controversy over Zivanic's date of death. I suspect 1947 is correct, since Britannica gives a place as well as a date, but I'd like someone to find a primary source. --Quuxplusone 18:43, 26 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Place of exile and death[edit]

According to the Serbian version of this article Živković remained in exile in the UK and died in London (је остао у изгнанству у Великој Британији и умро у Лондону), not France and Paris as indicated here. The Serbo-Croatian version (which is separate from the Serbian one) and the Slovenian version also give Paris as the place of death. After mentioning this (in English, since I can read Serbian but can't write it well) on the Serbian talk page back in August 2016, I got a reply the same day from someone saying that the UK and London are correct, and quoting what you would expect to be a reliable source: "He die [sic] in London not in Paris. Book Generals and admirals of Kingdom of Yugoslavia." But I have no idea which is correct.31.15.247.228 (talk) 08:13, 21 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Britannia says Paris. I think we should go with that unless reliable sources challenge it. Cheers, Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 08:18, 21 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
