Talk:Michał Kazimierz "Rybeńko" Radziwiłł

Untitled
Any clue how to translate "Rybeńko" since 4 other Radziwiłłs got their nicknames translated? Renata 13:30, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

I'm sure we'll work it out. Dr. Dan 19:00, 8 July 2006 (UTC)

Psycho History
On another important, but somewhat unrelated matter. Piotrus, your addition concerning Rybenko's psychological dispostion makes me cringe a little. Please hear me out. There has been an attempt in some circles recently, to psychoanalyze historical figures, diagnose their medical aliments, and come up with hypotheses and theories about what made them "tick". It's a little dangerous to to so. Speaking as both a historian, and medically trained professional in psychiatry, I want to go on record as an opponent of this nonsense, and hope to remove it from Wikipedia. The concept and so forth, should be outlined and explained in an article of its own. This should be done to let our readers understand what it's about, but again let me go on record as saying it's very, very bogus, and should be strongly discouraged. It opens the door to flame wars, edit wars, and endless strife. It can not be medically, scientifically, or otherwise proven, and is simply too POV. We can't truly analyze Charles De Gaulle, let alone Hitler, Stalin or Robespierre, and say that we can do so about the 250+ year old "Rybenko". The reference, that you almost plagiarized vebatim, is an opinion not a matter of fact. I hope I can persuade you to help me remove this kind of material from Wikipedia, and vigilantly help me to challenge it, when it becomes necessary. I think it's very important.

"Rybenko"
"Rybenko" is a diminutive for "little fish" in vocative case. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 45.58.207.61 (talk) 12:59, 25 February 2018 (UTC)
