Are/were lots of Slovenian villages called just "selo"?
I've been looking at Selo, Ajdovščina, Zgornja Slivnica and other Slovenian village articles and a number of them state that the village is/was known simply as "selo" (which I know just means "village" or "settlement"). I'm sceptical that this was/is actually the name of these villages, at least not a real, long-term name that people from that place would use to describe where they came from, because that wouldn't make sense. It sounds more like this was just a place-holder name at most. Or am I wrong, would people in these places really say (or have said) "hello, my name is Franc, and I come from Selo?". Can anyone shed more light on this? FOARP (talk) 14:28, 4 August 2025 (UTC)
- People do really say "I'm from Selo". It's not a placeholder. --TadejM my talk 17:57, 17 January 2026 (UTC)
Discussion about WikiProject banner templates
For WikiProjects that participate in rating articles, the banners for talk pages usually say something like:
- "This article has been rated as Low-importance on the importance scale."
There is a proposal to change the default wording on the banners to say "priority" instead of "importance". This could affect the template for your group. Please join the discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Council#Proposal to update wording on WikiProject banners.

Input on evaluation of sources
Hi! I posted a question at Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Noticeboard#Slovenske novice and Reporter about assessing reliability of sources for controversial material in a BLP (Nina Krajnik). It would be great to get more input from people familiar with Slovenian news media. Thank you! Dreamyshade (talk) 17:32, 27 January 2026 (UTC)
