Death place

[edit]

The parameter in the infobox should provide information about the place of death and its affiliation to the country, not detailed information about the division of the country and its political status. See how it's done elsewhere, e.g. famous personalities of Czech history: Václav Havel, Karel Čapek, Klement Gottwald, Jaroslav Heyrovský...

@FromCzech: In this case, you are pushing a disparity with the place of origin, which is indicated under the polity/regime that Romania was at the time, asking that we do not do the same for the place of death. Moreover, your examples seem to be entirely selected from Czechoslovakia (you probably edited them yourself in that manner, or in any case stand by them as an concocted rule), when in fact infoboxes outside that context use all sorts of geographical and political detail: George S. Patton, as a random example, is a Featured Article with such very precise detail in the infobox (December 21, 1945 (aged 60) Heidelberg, Allied-occupied Germany); as another random example, I may add Otto Roth, which uses very precise detail: Nagy-Mutnik, Austria-Hungary (today Mâtnicu Mare, Romania) and Timișoara, Romanian People's Republic. Do note: though I edited the latter article, I did not add in this form -- and I can only assume the user who added it was working for some consensus. In short: the rule you claim exists does not exist, and your contribution to the infobox pushes an anomaly. Dahn (talk) 09:05, 12 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
My examples refer to Czechoslovakia, because we are talking about how Czechoslovakia is usually handled, not other countries. I don't understand the comment that I edited it myself, it can be easily verified and it's probably just a provocation. It is the usual notation and it should be consistent. Btw Patton is OK, there is no unnecessary detail; Roth is broken down in unnecessary detail for infobox purposes, but I don't understand Romanian naming conventions, so I won't discuss it. FromCzech (talk) 09:55, 12 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There is no special rule for Czechoslovakia and no special rule for Romania (though, incidentally, if there had been any, this would fall under Romania -- the man just happened to die, rather randomly, in Karlovy Vary). Moving on: can you see how the Patton infobox refers to a very specific moment in German history, rather than "Germany"? This is on par with the link here using "Socialist Czechoslovakia" rather than "Czechoslovakia". If you're not satisfied with that example, nor with Roth, let's continue with Edvard August Vainio ("Grand Duchy of Finland" is the same level of supposedly unnecessary detail as "Czech Socialist Republic"), Eduard Fraenkel (ditto with "Prussia" -- note how it pipes to this specific article), Peter Martyr Vermigli, Francis Walsingham, Antiochus XI Epiphanes, Guy Fawkes, and so on. Dahn (talk) 11:39, 12 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
So that the selection of people is not random, here are the most visited pages of personalities born or died in Czechoslovakia according to the top100 Wikipedia:WikiProject Czech Republic/Popular pages. They all have it written in the same format: Paulina Porizkova, Jaromír Jágr, Martina Navratilova, Petr Čech, Madeleine Albright, Pavel Nedvěd, Tom Stoppard, Václav Havel, Miloš Forman, Antonín Panenka, Milan Baroš, Milan Kundera. And we can continue behind the top100. It may not be a "rule", but it is a convention. The link to the Czech Socialist Republic is completely redundant. The link to Czechoslovak Socialist Republic remained after my edit, it was just changed to a piped link with the most common and the most easily identifiable name of the country, both then and now.

@FromCzech: Note how I have presented examples from featured articles (i.e. articles that have passed a test of quality), and not "the most popular pages" on whatever topic -- an absolutely irrelevant standard, if I ever saw one. As for the rest, Biruitorul sends you directly to the relevant standard. Granted, it may be superfluous to add the federal component for Petrescu's place of death, but I think it falls within the policy and precedent of mentioning the first-level division of that particular time, for cities that are not national capitals (Patton with California, Fraenkel with Prussia, Vainio with the Grand Duchy etc.); I could perhaps be persuaded to remove it, but certainly not because a pick of "popular" articles on Czech topics don't use it -- if anything, those sloppy articles need to be updated to what is, in fact, standard usage. Dahn (talk) 18:25, 12 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The only featured biography article related to Czechoslovakia is Dominik Hašek, the good articles are Vladimír Remek, Milan Baroš, Pavel Nedvěd, Vojtěch Jarník, Patrik Berger, Tomáš Rosický, Libor Michálek and Antonín Kinský; and I didn't find any exception to what I wrote before. IMHO the relevant standard also think supports it. Obviously there is no way to convince you no matter how many examples I give, so I started the discussion on Template talk:Infobox person#Death place detail. FromCzech (talk) 19:19, 12 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@FromCzech: Hašek was born before the nominal partition into a Czech and Slovak socialist republics, so the example is irrelevant. I also note that you are now trying to move back to where we would simply say Czechoslovakia, but Kingdom of Romania/People's Republic of Romania, though you were previously claiming that you had changed your mind on this issue. I will not participate in, not follow, chaff debates meant to canvass -- we can keep it all here, and anyone can add their input, if they have any. Dahn (talk) 19:37, 12 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
