Talk:List of people from Bucharest

Latest comment: 9 years ago by Dostojewskij in topic List would be more useful

That elusive noun

edit

Bogdan created this article at "List of Bucharests". There is, God help us, only one Bucharest, so that would be a short list. I don't believe there is actually a common English-language word for people from Bucharest. In my own writing I've used "Bucharestean(s)", but now googling for that I suspect that every use of that on the Internet -- even a couple in Hungarian -- trace back to me! "Bucharesters" fares a little better (104 Google hits, + 23 for Bucharester). Bucharestians gets 220 + 24, but they appear to be mostly from two sources -- Bucharest In Your Pocket, probably the best English-language guide to the city, and pressreview.ro -- and without the terminal "s" it's mostly used as an adjective. So I guess "Bucharester" wins, and I'm moving this accordingly. -- Jmabel | Talk 03:20, Dec 19, 2004 (UTC)

List would be more useful

edit

The list would be more useful with dates of birth and death and a short description what each person is known for. 165.189.91.148 16:46, 29 March 2006 (UTC)Reply

  Done: I added short description today. --Dostojewskij (talk) 20:10, 18 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

Alexandru Buşă

Who is Alexandru Buşă? Why does he merit being on the list? - Jmabel | Talk 17:39, 22 April 2006 (UTC)Reply

Apparently he added himself. [1] bogdan 17:56, 22 April 2006 (UTC)Reply
