Talk:Naousa, Imathia

Comments

An anonymous editor deleted the Slavic name of the city, stating that she/he is from Naoussa and therefore knows that it never has been called Negush. This is clearly a case of original research. It is official Wikipedia policy not to include original research into articles. Wikipedia:No original research. This policy prohibits editors "from drawing on their personal knowledge without citing their sources". The Name "Negush" for Naoussa can be easily confirmed by an appropriate search using a search engine. Google gives 1,730 hits for Negush and 1,010 hits for Негуш.  Andreas  ^(T) 15:19, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

Your arguments are very weak. First of all, one can likely get more than 1730 hits on the internet of sites claiming that Alexander the Great was Yugoslav (695000 hits), that Jesus Christ was gay (over 7 million hits) or that extraterrestrials exist (805000 hits). For this reason Wikipedia exists, because the internet itself is not an encyclopedia. Among the hits on Negush you mention we have: references to an Ethiopian emperor, references to software under that name, various personal profiles, facebook aliases, personal surnames, blogs, fiction, a company name registered in the US and all kinds of things that have nothing whatsoever to do with Naousa. Secondly, what evidence should one find that nobody in Naousa calls the town "Negush"? Is the same rule going to be applied in naming other towns around the world? Can one give any place any name as long as scholarly proof does not exist that someone in the town or city or country does not use that name? Could one write Japan is also known as Festinia because no scholar has published a paper proving that nobody living in Japan calls it Festinia? This is not an issue of original research, it is about common sense. Finally, the rule Wikipedia: Names_of_European_cities_in_different_languages concerns only major cities. 91.32.116.121 (talk) 19:30, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

By adding what the name of the city is in Greek, and JUST Slavic,implies a connection between the two when there is not. So if your going to put what its called in slavic why dont you put what the turks call the city? or the italians or the germans. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 209.6.196.209 (talk • contribs) 04:52, 17 November 2006.

If you know the Turkish, Italian, and German names (assuming all are historically relevant), by all means be bold and add them. However, the Slavic name is useful, and since you basically told me it has to do with history—it should stay. Khoikhoi 05:05, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
