It appears the 39th Army is not credited with participation in this operation as it remained facing Kaunas, and operating in that direction for the time period in question-- mrg3105 ( comms) ♠♥♦♣ 13:47, 27 March 2008 (UTC) reply

First of, great series and great job! But I have a questions why Shyaulyay? I understand that it is transliteration from Russian, but say for Vilnius or Kaunas offensive you are using the current official city names. So why not to go with Šiauliai? Renata ( talk) 13:36, 27 March 2008 (UTC) reply

Hi, this is how the names were represented in the sources used, IIRC. Esdrasbarnevelt ( talk) 11:33, 29 March 2008 (UTC) reply

Would you mind renaming? Then it would be consistent, and Šiauliai has half a dozen different transliterations in Russian. Renata ( talk) 15:12, 31 March 2008 (UTC) reply

Personally I'm happier going with the sources for various reasons, but perhaps it would be better thrown open to discussion here Esdrasbarnevelt ( talk) 14:52, 4 April 2008 (UTC) reply

Šiauliai is Lithuanian city, not Russian. The correct translation from Lithuanian would be Shiauliai.-- 213.185.7.116 ( talk) 11:42, 27 February 2009 (UTC) reply
