My edit

To explain my edit. I have re-added the Serbian Latin alphabet (don`t understand why it was removed in the first place) and a tag that was dated from November 2010. I will delete this statement now (that was taged citation needed) since no reference was provided since November. About this edit I have re-entered it because it has a reference and it was removed for no apparent reason. Adrian (talk) 08:12, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

Relation to the sorbs

Why isn't there any mention of the sorbs in this article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.117.64.74 (talk) 16:12, 12 September 2012 (UTC)

Edit summary

WP:FRINGE, WP:HOWCITE. Regarding WP:HOWCITE, everything is entered according to the rule. I have seen dozens of such sources and this cannot be a reason to start deleting information from Misplaced Pages. As for WP:FRINGE, you have Misplaced Pages:Fringe theories/Noticeboard and there try to determine fringe theory. This is information from RS and extra RS can be added. In this RS groups of scholars make conclusion about Serbian name and it is not fringe theory. In the same article you have this information "Furthermore, he says that the town of Servia received its name from the Serbs who once lived there" This term Servia is because of Constantine VII explanation ie same information from RS which I added. Cannot first information be not fringe and information from my RS fringe, and it's about the same thing, same basis and from same historical document. Mikola22 (talk) 05:51, 16 October 2020 (UTC)

Well, there's no controversy for citing Constantine VII's interpretation of the etymology, but it needs additional secondary context and rephrasing that it was wrong etymological derivation using Latin and Greek language like in the case of the Croats.--Miki Filigranski (talk) 07:58, 16 October 2020 (UTC)
