Talk:Jakov Lukarević (historian)

1547 birth?

Is the unsigned page published by the city actually relevant here? It could be just a typo... --Joy [shallot] (talk) 12:14, 29 October 2022 (UTC)

Yeah, I did not know what to do- one source with a degree of certainty says "Jakov Lukarević rodio se 1547. g. kao sin kneza Petra Lukarevića i Mare Bonda.": the other source being www.enciklopedija.hr with 1551. So, I decided to include both, and say, well, depending on source, etc. :-) ౪ Santa ౪^99° 07:44, 1 November 2022 (UTC)

What do you think? ౪ Santa ౪^99° 07:45, 1 November 2022 (UTC)

And , yes, I am too always for signed text, but as it seems both sources are unsigned - so I gave them both same wight. This city page seem pretty serious and devoted, and I wouldn't write them off lightly - they are some sort of legacy association, maybe academic in nature (museum, or somethong) ౪ Santa ౪^99° 07:51, 1 November 2022 (UTC)

On the other hand, unlike enciklopedija.hr, these guys are much more careful, and they sign all of their input. ౪ Santa ౪^99° 07:55, 1 November 2022 (UTC)

Yes the Croatian Biographical Lexicon articles note the authors and dates of each individual entry, while the Croatian Encyclopedia doesn't do that. This could be because the latter was conventionally published in volumes and was the core output of the Lexicographical Institute. Either way, the latter institution carries way more weight than anything run by a single city. We should find a secondary source, though. --Joy [shallot] (talk) 19:20, 16 November 2022 (UTC)

I eventually included both years either/or for now. I have searched at the time but could not find anything conclusive, unless we accept [1]lazaretihub.com -biografija: jakov-lukarevic as OK source, in absence of anything better. ౪ Santa ౪^99° 19:45, 16 November 2022 (UTC)
