Štehvanje: The biggest attraction in Savlje that attracts more than thousand people every year, deserves only one sentence? 1. How did this quintaine came to Savlje? 2. When is it happening? 3. How it looks?

People would like to know this. Everything was written but erased... They know nothing about this, from only one sentence. I doubt this is help. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Grabyton (talkcontribs) 11:11, 3 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

If you would like to add more details about this topic, I suggest that you add them at the Quintain (jousting) article. That is a more appropriate place for a lengthier description. In particular, WP:PROMOTION (point 5: promoting events) may be helpful guidance here. Doremo (talk) 12:05, 3 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

I think that Posavsko štehvanje can not be explained in Quintain. Quintain can only be hypernym for Štehvanje and Štehvanje is hypernym for Ziljsko štehvanje and Posavsko štehvanje. Štehvanje has it`s one rules, distinguish them from rules of other quintains. Therefore Štehvanje needs it`s one page on Wikipedia. It can be mentioned in Quintain page but not fully explaned. Until Štehvanje has no page I recommend that it should be explaned on pages Kleče, Savlje, Ježica, Mala vas. Example: Ball games are football, basketball, handball... They all have their one page. Your act can not be fully explaned if we compare Planica and Savlje page. The word describes valley Planica, but there you describe only Sport event and all material related to ski jumping. There is no data how vally was formed, the nature of the vally, the hiking routes etc. But in comparison with Savlje, sport and traditional event is mentioned with only one sentence. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Grabyton (talkcontribs) 14:07, 3 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

I disagree. The Quintain (jousting) page currently has a section on Offham quintain. Adding Gail Valley and Ljubljana-area quintain to that page would enrich it with better geographical balance. Describing the event in identical detail on four different pages about villages is not only highly inefficient but also an example of undue weight. You're also quite welcome to create a separate article dedicated to Slovene quintain in the Gail Valley and the Ljubljana area. Doremo (talk) 14:20, 3 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

History starts with attests. Look other articles in Wikipedia. Attests are not part of Etymology. Example: If someone asks what the name of Albert Einstein means, he will not get an answer when he was born. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Grabyton (talkcontribs) 13:52, 25 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Name section

edit

A recent edit removed sourced information about the name of the settlement from the article's name section. If you believe that Snoj (the cited source) is wrong, please explain why and provide an alternative source. If you believe that information about the name does not belong in the name section, please explain why. Doremo (talk) 19:11, 25 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Please read carefully what I already wrote and do not repeat the topic. I have to use copy paste:
Snoj is not wrong. You understand him wrong. Explanation: Etymology is the study of the history of words, their origins, and how their form and meaning have changed over time. Snoj had to explain what one word means and he explained that with history. Example: Rašica means Crow village. How can he be wright? He stated the source from 1260, where Rašica was first attested as Wrenschitz. This proves that word Rašica derives from Vranščica. But source from 1260 belongs to history. Ježica has paragraph for history but Snoj had to combine history and etymology cause his book was not about history.
History starts with attests. Look other articles in Wikipedia. Attests are not part of Etymology. Example: If someone asks what the name of Albert Einstein means, he will not get an answer when he was born.--Grabyton (talk) 11:38, 26 February 2016 (UTC)Reply
