The peculiar case of Zlatar[-]Bistrica

[edit]

It is not fully clear how to correctly spell it:

From this, it looks plausible that Central Bureau of Statistics gets it wrong both in the census and the Yearbook, while everyone else gets it right. Notionally, Zlatar-Bistrica, with a dash, suggests agglomeration of two settlements, Zlatar and Bistrica, and I don't believe this to be the case.

Pinging Rethymno regarding the recent page move. GregorB (talk) 08:04, 26 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Official name of the sttlement and town is Zlatar-Bistrica with (-) by Central bureau of Statistics, even more logica would be Zlatar Bistrica same as Marija Bistrica, there is no reason for (-), but official is official. Settlement is built on a "half way" between old towns Zlatar and Marija Bistrica, from that it have its name, it's not (as i know) made from two settlements.--Rethymno (talk) 09:33, 26 July 2018 (UTC) Same thing is with the town of Ivanić-Grad, also with (-) even that "Grad"suggest difference of neighburing settlement Ivanić-Kloštar (officialy Kloštar Ivanić) which is written without symbol (-). But what to do...:)It is like it is: Zlatar-Bistrica and Ivanić-Grad and on the other side Marija Bistrica and Kloštar Ivanić.--Rethymno (talk) 09:44, 26 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough, but how could it be that DZS supposedly gets it right, and everybody else, including the municipality itself, on its website, gets it wrong? GregorB (talk) 13:49, 26 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
