- There are no other English sources either. If this were indeed true it would make its way prominently into practically any Russian language article on Weinberg - this is culturally a very important (and sensitive) issue in Russia (I can't even stress how important and how sensitive). Yet one cannot find a single reference. In addition, he obviously lived and died in Russia, making Russian sources sort of primary on the details of his life. I'd also like to mention (perhaps it should go into the main text), that he wrote music to some of the most popular cartoons and movies, so that some of his songs are known to any single Russian, adult or child (e.g. from Winnie-the-Pooh); their popularity was/is tremendous.
- Here's a pretty detailed article in Russian:

And a little bit here - http://news.oboe.ru/?y=2004&w=50#news933 and here - http://www.gzt.ru/culture/2004/12/07/122400.html (BTW, in this latter interview his friend cellist Berlinsky calls him Metek).
- Here are 3 more articles where he is called Metek (Метек; in the last one a letter by Georgy Sviridov is cited using Metek): http://www.vestnik.com/issues/97/0916/koi/katseva.htm http://subscribe.ru/archive/russ.culture/200302/27012451.html http://www1.trud.ru/Arhiv/2000/01/21/200001210110505.htm Actually, Metek is diminutive from Mieczyslaw.
Could someone please post some guidance on the pronunciation of the name Mieczysław -- either an IPA transcription or a snippet of audio? 24.41.28.120 ( talk) 20:51, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
In my opinion it's absurd to put a reader into a discussion of his name so quickly after the lede. Is this really conventional? Can someone point to examples where this is accepted? This is "speaking footnote" level material, meriting at best a sidebar. What do you think visitors come to this page to read about? In some ways it reminds me of the joke law review article on the infield fly rule which added footnotes to the first word, "The". Frank Lynch ( talk) 21:03, 27 December 2023 (UTC)
There are two contradictory values listed on the page for the number of symphonies composed by Weinberg (22 and 26). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Capricornus1967 ( talk • contribs) 20:04, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
Despite my efforts to improve matters, this article currently has three separate clean-up tags about its citations. As WP:OVERTAGGING makes clear:
Placing too many tags on an article is "tag-bombing", disruptive, or may be a violation of Do not disrupt Wikipedia to make a point
this is not to be done. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 22:16, 27 December 2023 (UTC)
The current article says: "Late on the night of September 6, 1939...he heard a radio announcement urging all citizens of Warsaw to flee as the arrival of the German Army was imminent." The FACT is different: "Umiastowski was the head of the propaganda department in the Polish High Staff. On the night of 6/7 September 1939 he aired a message on the radio, urging all able men of Warsaw to go to the front; the idea was to man a defense line east of the Vistula" Source: /info/en/?search=Roman_Umiastowski Davos2003 ( talk) 03:14, 25 April 2024 (UTC)
