Talk:Đurađ Branković/Archive 1

Untitled
In July 1444, Hungary signed peace agreement with Ottomans, valid for ten years. Hunyadi and Brankovic were among those who swore on the Gospel to honor this agreement, together with  in Szeged. It was Hunyadi who dishonours this agreement, by crossing Danube with 70,000 solders (1448). Brankovic refused to join him and break the peace with Turkey.

During the Second Battle of Kosovo, Dan II of Wallachia with his 8,000 solders suddenly joined Ottomans. He was the one who betrayed Hunyadi – not Brankovic.

Durad - George
"Frequently called George Branković in English-language sources". I seem to remember that the rule in the English Wikipedia is that the Anglicized name is used for royals who reigned. It is interesting to see how WP is becoming more and more international. The sad thing is however that more local input does not necessarily mean a higher level of historical awareness. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cuon (talk • contribs) 14:02, 26 June 2012 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 8 June 2018
"Branimir Anzulovic. Heavenly Serbia: From Myth to Genocide" is evidently not a trustworthy source of Serbian history, and the writer is not even a Serb, he's a Croat. I request therefore that the line "Đurađ had informed the Sultan of Hunyadi's coming crusade.[15]" which is absolutely biased and false and found nowhere in Serbian literature be deleted. Thank you. 188.96.221.24 (talk) 16:11, 8 June 2018 (UTC)
 * the writer is not even a Serb, he's a Croat The reliability of a scholar is not determined by their nationality. The publisher is a reliable university, hence your request does not have strong grounds. Ktrimi991 (talk) 16:16, 8 June 2018 (UTC)

The reliability of this book is debunked in the Crusade of Varna and Battle of Varna talk pages. The sole source claiming that "Branković informed the Sultan of the upcoming Crusade" is in this beautiful revisionist title called "Heavenly Serbia: From Myth to Genocide", written by a Croatian, backed by Noel Malcolm, notorious for taking liberties when interpreting historic events related to Serbia. People pushing this info, namely sulmues, are banned for sockpuppeting. Lazarus 92 (talk) 23:59, 18 March 2019 (UTC)

Suspicious source
told me to seek consensus here. I have problem with Anzulovic source, the author is not a historian, but linguist with a nationalistic agenda and his book quoted here is not per historical standards to say the least, at least when it comes to publishing a book that is supposed to be a history book.

My proposal is to delete this source. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.178.245.220 (talk) 20:08, 23 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Since there is no other comments, I'll remove suspicious part. 212.178.245.220 (talk) 08:19, 27 August 2020 (UTC)
