[edit] Conversion to Islam??

Quote from the article:

After 1720 [Pylyp Orlyk] returned to Turkey and allegedly converted to Islam.

I somehow doubt that statement. Does anyone have any references that back this? —dima ^{• talk • sb •} 04:37, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

I doubt it too; it should be deleted unless it can be substantiated. Languagehat 22:07, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Birthplace

The article on Ukrainian wikipedia [1] and encyclopedia of Ukraine [2] and here give a different town of his birthplace: in Косут Ошмянського повіту. Ostap 02:44, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

Ostap, it's actually the same thing. See this article, second paragraph.--Riurik^(discuss) 02:25, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

I did not know that. Thank you for clarifying. Ostap 02:31, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
