[edit] Tyszkiewicz Palace

This article should be renamed to Tyszkiewicz Palace, Palanga. Tyszkiewicz is commonly used to refer to Tyszkiewicz family, their property and to that palace in particular, compare: 109 google hits for "Tyszkiewicz Palace"+Palanga to 37 Google hits for "Tiškevičiai Palace"+Palanga. Also, there are 2 Google Print results for "Tyszkiewicz palace Palanga" and none at all for Tiškevičiai palace (even without Palanga).-- _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk}  17:06, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

This article should not be renamed. Indeed lets compare: 23 and 21 or 23 Quite a small gap to determine that current name is wrong. But this is not the main reseon, current name is officially used, including museum and Association of Museum publications such as [1]. Second "little" inaccuracy - palace is not their property. So I do not see any reason why current name is bad or why it should be changed. M.K. 09:24, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

Tyszkiewicz Palace is used in print. Tyszkiewicz is more popular than Tiškevičiai (hence the Tiškevičiai redirect to Tyszkiewicz). And finally, official page of the Amber Museum clearly gives precedent to Tyszkiewicz compared to Tiškevičiai.-- _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk}  16:39, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

First of all it is not important that redirects where, because we talking about building name. And yes finally, official page of the Amber Museum clearly gives precedent that palace is called TIŠKEVIČIŲ RŪMAI (which direct translation is used in this article as well) rather then Tyszkiewicz rūmai. Name of the article used in printed versions (one abstract from Museums already provided above), as well as in different articles in web, rather then wikipedia clones or photo gallerias of so called "109" hints. Therefore I regard this discussion as over, as there are no arguments why established name by Museums should not be used M.K. 12:35, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
