Talk:List of Montenegrins

Untitled[edit]

This list is very disscutable,so I appelle it to be clear from the people who declarate or had declarated theirselves as Serbs.People of Montenegro are Serbs (half of my family is from there) and there are not "Montenegrins".However,if today some people insist to be "Montenegrin",like Milo Djukanovic,put him on the list,but pure Serbs like Njegos,Mila Jovovic and so on,please,remove from the list.It confuse foreigns!

How can be Jovan Cvijic(born in Serbia)considered Montenegrin

It's fixed. Sorry about that. —M e ts501 (talk) 13:10, 15 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

And how can Ana Ivanovic, Jelena Jankovic and Novak Djokovic be here? Is there actually info about their contact with Montenegro? All of them were born in Belgrade, which is capital of Serbia. They were though listed under Foreign Figures of Montenegrin descent. Only mention in their articles apart from the fact they represented Serbia and Montenegro, was that Jankovic has dated a Montenegrin sportsman. 85.217.39.79 (talk) 09:59, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

And now I noticed it is the politicians section where they were put in the article... 85.217.39.79 (talk) 10:01, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Disputable article, at least[edit]

Many of those people are Serbs, just born in montenegro. But i see the article covers these people. Milla Jovovich was, however, serbian girl from Russia, not Montenegro. Her Grandfather was either from serbia or montenegro.

Well yes, but her grandfather was from the Vasojević tribe in Montenegro. Well, that fact does make her Montenegrin, but to mention that the Vasojevići were originally Serbs descended from royal Nemanjić family, which in turn descended from the royal Dukljan (Montenegrin) family of Vojislavljevići. Oh my God, I think I'm going to crazy with this geneaological knowledge of mine. Well, you get the picture. --Crna Gora 23:32, 30 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Her grandfather was from the Serb clan of Vasojevići (Udruženje Vasojevića traži regionalnu autonomiju...) from the region of Montenegro. Vojislav was an ethnic Serb, with origin in the different Serbian principalities of Travunia, Hum, Rascia and Duklja. Duklja was ruled and inhabited by Serbs and no other slavic group until 14-500s when Muslim slavs first were recorded as living in Montenegro. Croats lived in the Venetian enclaves. (Montenegrin nation was fabricated by Tito following WW2, 1948 is the first time in history the Montenegrins are registered as something else than ethnographic Serbs). So, to answer you, NO, I don't get your picture. /User_talk:Ajdebre

Well that's your problem. 92.36.237.210 (talk) 14:21, 17 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Many entries have no mention about their claimed relation to Montenegro. In section "Foreign Figures of Montenegrin descent" is seven names with an article, of which, only two has a mention being Montenegrin descent. Apart from the above mentioned tennis players, the two American politicians need a source to prove their descent. 85.217.22.178 (talk) 17:30, 20 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If there is no such mention in their article (assuming they have one) or their refs (assuming they have them), they can be deleted -- or, if you can find refs, you can add them.--Epeefleche (talk) 18:08, 20 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

List of "Montenegrins"[edit]

This article has so many mistakes and inaccuracies. For example Uroš I, Grand Prince of Serbia didn't came from Montenegro because that time Montenegro didn't exist. It is the same thing as to add Illyrian figures in this list only because they lived in what is today Montenegro.NobleFrog (talk) 18:39, 31 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed, nothing has changed for three and a half years. 1) Some personalities included here do not fit under newly formed and defined Montenegrin ethnicity. Neutrality of the list is in question. 2) There are 0 sources and refs.
