Hello dear Sumanuil,
Kindly check the topic that I added for discussion Talk:Lake Skadar
It would be highly appreciated to read this, the references, check facts and come to the simple conclusion that if you call the city that this lake is linked to in English language Shkodër (Shkodra - definite form), the lake has to be called also Shkodra Lake or Lake of Shkodra.
Skadar is the name of this city in slavic language.
I hope that the explanation provided and the facts are a good reason for the revert you did to be undone in order to move the article to Shkodra Lake and change the slavic name to what the lake should be named after in English language.

The name you want is already there, and references and files don't need "fixing". - Sumanuil. (talk to me) 22:36, 20 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

@Sumanuil I am a new user in Wikipedia therefore I might have done a mistake in correcting the references but again the proper name is not there. It is Lake Skadar eveywhere except for the first paragraph where it is stated also how it is called in Albanian when it should be the opposite. It should be Lake of Shkodra everywhere and in the variants it can be stated the Slavic one, Italian, Turkish, Greek ect.
The point here is that the lake should be named after the name of the city in English language and that it Shkodra (Shkodër - indefinite form). The article needs to be moved and named differently.

Maybe it should, but that wasn't the problem. And the references don't need "correcting", that's the whole point. - Sumanuil. (talk to me) 22:46, 20 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

Correcting the references was a mistake from my side then.
I was only trying to change the name of the lake inserting it as should be in English and had absolutely no intention to damage the rest of the article. Andi Shkambi (talk) 23:00, 20 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
