Talk:Maiac

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I think it's an unnecessary complication. Is there a English word or phrase for "naselennyi punkt"?

Also note that transn-stubs are already a subcat of mo-stubs, so using both of them is redundant. --Illythr (talk) 09:02, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Tend to agree about the latter. (which means I agree :-) ) About the former, frankly speaking, I won't be surprized if Tiraspol autorities would call it city as well. I've seen no sourse presented about them calling it in any way. Dc76\talk 17:32, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

What's its population size anyway? --Illythr (talk) 18:23, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Grigoriopol + Maiac have 11,473. Most of them in Grigoriopol, but no matter how much I searched, couldn't find. I'd say cca. 10,000 in G and 2,000 M. Note that in Moldova there are cities like Ghindeşti 1,841, Frunză 1,476, Bucovăţ 1,313 (1,658). An article with these data will be ready in cca 1 month. Very interesting trivia.

And they call that a city? Pfeh. (*Glows with "stolichnosti"*) --Illythr (talk) 18:48, 11 March 2008 (UTC)


Tr pov: I suspect the Transnistian authorities simply kept Maiac's designation as "poselok gorodskogo tipa" from Soviet times. --Illythr (talk) 22:59, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
