Talk:Włodzimierz Rachmanow

Name, nationality
I was able to find several reliable sources using the Polish version (Włodzimierz Rachmanow), including the biography and the Polish Philatelists Union, and news reports (Polish, English). The previous title, "Wladimir von Rachmanow", was much less common and did not generate any results that were as reliable, at least as far as I could see. Also, Google Print has two books of his indexed under this name:. On another interesting note, the Polish sources do refer to him as "Russian", even through he seems to have been born and lived in Warsaw. Perhaps he was a polonized Russian, or a Pole of Russian origins (born in the Russian partition); for now I've amended the article to refer to him as Polish-Russian. He was certainly very active in the pre-WWII philately world in the Second Polish Republic. I wonder if there are any Russian sources about him? Perhaps there is a more popular, Russian version of his name? --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; talk to me 21:30, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
