Silnica River
Oh wait, there's a mistake! There's a link which contains name "Silnica" - Silnica river and it takes me to page about Silnica City in Poland :)- silent mistaker(not official name, but to distunguish us) What? Are you kidding me!? I had not heared, of a city of that name! I'm sure if it even excits, it's a village, or a town.- Proctetor of truth(me)

lol
I've just arrived at this page to fix the parentheses, and have done so. However I also noticed the following line in the tourist attractions section -
 * Kadzielnia Gorge (a former quarry where many of the DDR westerns were shot - including parts of the

Obviously this is missing the crucial bit of information, and I don't know what it is! I've truncated the line to finish at "shot", but could someone who knows what was filmed here add it (back) in! Thryduulf 17:17, 12 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Please check your sister cities. They are incorrect!

Moscow: Another brick in the wall
Yesterday, looking at the Golitsyn Gates in downtown Moscow, I found a peculiar thing: a brick-sized plate, protruding from the pylon, with KIELCE engraved in clear modern typeface. A very recent thing. Any idea what it means and why it is there? At least one of Golitsyns has been around Kielce in 1770, but I doubt it's the case here.NVO 11:14, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Celts before Vistulans?!
Who wrote this?! Celtic culture (La Tène culture) was before Przeworsk Culture. And the Przeworsk Culture was probably of Vandalic origin. Slavs came here in VI century a.d. but Vistulans is IX century tribe and there are no proves that they existed earlier.

population of the area of the Holy Cross Mountains
"In reality the area of the Holy Cross Mountains was almost unpopulated until 11th century when the first hunters established permanent settlements at the outskirts of the mountains"

Pagan walls on Holy Cross Mountain (other name: Lysa Gora) is dated VII-VIII a.d. so its impossible that the area was unpopulated till XI century, is it?

Mistake on the map
As a inhabitant :), I found a mistake on the city map - the Winnicka Street is "too long" - the part between Semianryjska Street and Zagorska street is Zeromskiego Street, not Winnicka Wersja polska - Ulica winnicka jest tylko do Zagorskiej - dalej jest Żeromskiego.

Name's origin
Origin of the Kielce name is probably connected not to the Kelts but rather to the Polish masculine word 'Kieł' "canine tooth, tusk, fang" (diminutive forms are both: 'kiełek' and 'kielec' and diminutive plural are: 'kiełki' and 'kielce'). Kielec was probably man's name and the village where man and his family lived was named in plural Kielce (which is plural: "those Kielec-es") - similar origin have thousand of Polish and other Slavic cities. Other theory is that kielce "little fangs, tusks" is name from geographic features but generaly etymology is the same. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.244.139.41 (talk) 10:24, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

Kielce pogrom censorship?
I notice that there are two articles in Wikipedia about the two separate Kielce pogroms, and that in this article neither are linked and only the later one is mentioned. I don't think that I am knowledgeable or skilled enough to find more information about the subject or link them both to this article without getting several of you wiki-people annoyed, so I'm just gonna ask that a few people please look into it. One of the kielce pogrom articles is quite long, and it would be a shame to shorten it to a mere unlinked sentence in this article. That kind of editing can only promote censorship. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.196.84.86 (talk) 16:26, 26 November 2010 (UTC)
