Moldovenism

[edit]

I seriously have doubts about believing that there was "Moldovenism" before USSR theory. AFAIK, in early 19th century even the Moldavians that were against a union with Wallachia accepted a common "Romanian" identity of the Moldavians and Wallachians. bogdan 22:53, 28 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]


You're right, the theory of Moldovan language and Moldovan people belongs to Joseph Stalin (http://www.revista22.ro/html/index.php?art=589&nr=2003-09-08 - Ce este limba moldoveneasca?; http://www.contrafort.md/2003/105-106/570_8.html ; Paul Goma - Basarabia: http://www.tiuk.reea.net/10/basarabia2.html ; http://www.gid-romania.com/IndexSectionst.asp?SectionID=34&SID=83 - '4 noiembrie 1940') Adriatikus 23:09, 17 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

His Russian origins

[edit]

Why was deleted the section about the Russian origins of Vasile Stati? I mean this here: "His mother was Russian.[1]" See here. The comment was not racist (is the term "Russian" a racist one? Is it denigratory??). It isn't also an OR, because it IS supported by the source, see here what the text says: "Vasile Stati s-a nascut dintr-o mama rusoaica si un tata moldovean." So, I think, the issue is clear. --Olahus (talk) 10:26, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In the way the information appears in the article, that is certainly racist.Xasha (talk) 10:58, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Be more precise: what exactly is racist in the article? Olahus (talk) 11:13, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Ethnicity of one's parents are usually of little importance and are normally included into a "early life" section way down below. Adding it into the lead like that is certainly inappropriate, made doubly so by the next sentence. Besides, you're using that lovely article by Dabija again. --Illythr (talk) 21:32, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
BTW, who are Constantin Staris and Ion Berlinski? Since their mums are not the embodiment of evil in this world, I take it, they are somewhat less evil themselves? --Illythr (talk) 21:35, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
BTW2: the Polish version is more neutral than this one, much more so than the Romanian one, where guess who had happily added the guy to the category "Russians", based on what seems to be personal preference (or dislike?). Perhaps a Polish speaker can grab some of the data from the better article and bring it over here... --Illythr (talk) 22:08, 24 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
