Talk:Édouard Kargu

Place of birth
Voivodeships (regions) are first-level subdivisions of Poland. Counties (city counties and land counties) are second-level subdivisions. Gminas (communes of land counties) and dzielnicas (districts of cities) are third-level subdivisions. Most place of birth cats go to counties. Sometimes they go to towns within counties (usually gminas). Place of birth cats for sportspeople in Poland and a number of other countries divide into regions and then cities where there are enough articles to make them viable. They could also go to counties but there would rarely be enough articles to make that useful. Opole County is one of the counties of Opole Voivodeship. Kargu was born in Opole County and is therefore a sportsperson from Opole Voivodeship. The point of discussion here is not if that is factually accurate for someone born now but whether these categories are appropriate for someone born when these divisions did not exist (this discussion has probably taken place on Wikipedia before, although I do not know the outcome).
