Template talk:Slavic terms for country subdivisions

Template name concerns

The following announcement and subsequent discussion were copied from Portal:Russia/New article announcements#December 1-15. I am seeking comments regarding this template's name.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 18:34, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

• Template:Slavic terms for country subdivisions by User:Tobias Conradi. The criterion for this assortment is not clear. For instance, there is obshchina, but no mir (social), pogost or khutor. --Ghirla ^-трёп- 07:57, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

  Mir and khutor do not qualify, as technically they were not "subdivisions", but rather inhabited localities. I added pogost, though. Thanks.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 17:50, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

  Still, it is very strange to see "raion" and "selsoviet" listed among traditional "Slavic terms". --Ghirla ^-трёп- 18:04, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

  Agree. The way this template is constructed now, the name of "Terms for subdivisions of Slavic countries" would be more appropriate. On a different note, why did you remove "powiat" and deitalicized "pogost" (which is a historical term)?—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 18:20, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

  Fixed. --Ghirla ^-трёп- 18:27, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

Silrada

Silrada is not a historic subdivision, but present time one.--Tomakiv (talk) 06:08, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

"Darugha"

Altough according to article this term was used in Russian Empire, I have a great doubts that it is correct to say that darugha is a Slavic term. Altes (talk) 18:22, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
