... that the Albanian tribe of Gruemiri was possibly so named because it had a distinguished female leader? Source: "However, gruemirs ("good women") among the northern Albanians were mentioned as early as 1416-1417 [..] as a tribe [..]. It is very probable that some brotherhood of katun in the Middle Ages was named after a woman leader, especially since the label of "good" clearly indicates the involvement of a respected and distinguished woman."

Overall:

There seems to be a small plagiarism match but the other page appears to be taking content from us. Some sentences don't have sources, but that's not a DYK requirement as long as each paragraph has sources. Everything looks good here. epicgenius (talk) 14:39, 26 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Defter?

Article: "Another theory based in the rendering of the toponym in the defter of Scutari in 1485 ..."

Defter of Scutari? It seems to mean something like "census" or "tax roll" in Turkish, but I don't actually have the knowledge to be sure. IAmNitpicking (talk) 20:34, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, a defter is an Ottoman form of census. Thank you for your comment, it helps improve the article's accessibility.--Maleschreiber (talk) 20:48, 13 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
