Now I'm confused: Is the town opposite to Flămânda named Ryahovo or Oryahovo? I added some info to the latter page about the Flămânda offensive, based on the link put yesterday in this article. But now that link has been reversed, to Ryahovo. I looked at the discussion on the talk page, but I'm still not sure what's going on. Can someone double-check, and clear all this up? Ideally, there should be a (unique, blue-linked) page for each and every one of these localities (Flămânda, Ryahovo/Oryahovo). By the way, which one is the town known as Rahova in Romanian? Oryahovo? Thanks. Turgidson 21:33, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

The village opposite to Flămânda (now Puieni, Prundu commune) is called Ryahovo, Ruse Province (see also Todor's answer on my talk page). The town known as Rahova in Romanian is Oryahovo (the site of a battle in the war of 1877-1878). Mentatus 21:56, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for clearing this up. As a result, I removed the (erroneous) reference to the Flămânda Offensive from the Oryahovo article. Turgidson 22:14, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

It's all my fault really, I changed Ryahovo to Oryahovo without doing my homework. I'm sorry for the misunderstanding. Todor→Bozhinov 22:45, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

No problem -- happens to all of us. But, this way, I learned something new, which is part of the fun of editing at wikipedia. right? Turgidson 23:23, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
