==regarding ethnicity and language==

It should be written Venetian slavic writer. He never said he wrote in Serbian language, he said he wrote in Slavic language and letters (cyrillic) were called Serbian back then. Bunch of educated people from that time who weren't serbs used it and called it serbian (since it was made by serbs) and language was called "slavic" and occasionally "illyric", "bosnian" or "serbian"."nation" didn't exist back then, at least not in sense as it is today. <small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/93.180.106.198|93.180.106.198]] ([[User talk:93.180.106.198|talk]]) 10:27, 21 August 2015 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:Unsigned IP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

He said he started writing in "Serbian letters" (meant Cyrillic from Serbian Language) because most of his people is using them. Who are then his people? Nation as a political term didn't existed because these areas were occupied by Venice and Ottoman empire. Ethnicity however, for sure, existed. And, also, I am little confused by what you have meant: " He never said he wrote in Serbian language, he said he wrote in Slavic language and letters (Cyrillic) were called Serbian back then." "Bunch of educated people from that time... called it serbian (since it was made by serbs)" - So, he didn't wrote in Serbian, but people called that langue he wrote as "Serbian"? No need to say anything...[[User:James Jim Moriarty|James Jim Moriarty]] ([[User talk:James Jim Moriarty|talk]]) 17:05, 4 November 2017 (UTC)

== Identity and overall article quality ==

[https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Andrija_Zmajevi%C4%87&type=revision&diff=902217465&oldid=902214636 This] is not [[WP:VANDAL]]. I see the issue as "Croatian" identity was not sourced, however, it is also problematic to consider him as Serbian instead of Montenegrin as well. The article is not written very well, it lacks citations, reference style, while other Wikipedian articles are not reliable sources for citation/adaptation especially if are from Serbo-Croatian Wikipedias which do not follow basic editing principles and are extremely biased. It does not matter if there is "no doubt" on his identity according to some RS, we follow NPOV, WEIGHT and BALANCE. Very reliable sources, like ''[[Croatian encyclopedia]]'' ([http://www.enciklopedija.hr/natuknica.aspx?id=67333], [http://www.enciklopedija.hr/Natuknica.aspx?ID=67332]), ''[[Hrvatska revija]]'' ([http://www.matica.hr/hr/547/iz-proslosti-boke-peraski-rod-zmajevica-28057/]) among others consider him as a Croatian and as such this information should be included in the article, stating something like he is considered as a Croat in Croatia or Croatian historiography or else. I will rewrite the article.--[[User:Miki Filigranski|Miki Filigranski]] ([[User talk:Miki Filigranski|talk]]) 11:48, 17 June 2019 (UTC)
:{{U|Miki Filigranski}} will you please be so kind to present a quote from ''[[Hrvatska revija]]'' ([http://www.matica.hr/hr/547/iz-proslosti-boke-peraski-rod-zmajevica-28057/]) which supports your statement that this source {{tq|consider him as a Croatian}}?--[[User:Antidiskriminator|Antidiskriminator]] ([[User talk:Antidiskriminator|talk]]) 19:30, 17 June 2019 (UTC)
::The source does not directly state he is Croatian because it is related to the general idea of {{tq|Zaljev hrvatskih svetaca – Boka kotorska}}, with the common perception about Catholicism and Orthodoxy related to Croatian or Serbian nation in the nation-building period, nevertheless the actual reality. It is about the context, and it is problematic to consider that individual members of a family had the same ethnonational identity in different time and place. The same author in "[https://hrcak.srce.hr/index.php?show=clanak&id_clanak_jezik=152340 Prilog životopisu barskog nadbiskupa Andrije Zmajevića (1671.-1694.)]" does note on pg. 238 and 246 {{tq|Njegovi su se preci doselili početkom XVI. stoljeća s Njeguša, iz sela Vrbe, u grad Kotor. Predanje o podrijetlu iz Crne Gore iznosi i sam Zmajević ... Odvjetak roda crnogorskoga podrijetla, rođenjem Peraštanin, pripadnik obitelji koja je dala cijeli niz zaslužnika, Andrija je Zmajević imao posebno zapaženu ulogu u iznimno teško vrijeme za opstanak kršćanstva i Katoličke crkve na području Barske nadbiskupije}}, except that it is difficult to understand whether the Montenegrin origin is mentioned in the meaning of a country or ethnonational identity. In short, these Croatian sources do not consider him and his family of Serbian origin, but as Montenegrin and Croatian, with Croatian obviously related to Catholic faith and activity ({{tq|Osnovna saznanja, ponajprije vezana uz vrijeme Zmajevićeva obnašanja nadbiskupske časti, kao i sažeto sročene podatke iz njegova životopisa, bilježimo u djelima enciklopedijsko-leksikonske naravi, kao i u nekoliko općih pregleda povijesti Katoličke crkve u Hrvata}}). To make it clear, I don't care what are the Croatian and Serbian claims of the Montenegrin history, we follow and cite what's said in RS per NPOV and WEIGHT. What is the evidence and argumentation his family, and particularly Andrija, are of Serbian origin?--[[User:Miki Filigranski|Miki Filigranski]] ([[User talk:Miki Filigranski|talk]]) 04:09, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
::After checking, it is very similar to the case of [[Roger Joseph Boscovich]]. As Bay of Kotor was not independent like the Republic of Ragusa, most suitable is to refer to him as a Montenegrin because both him and his family originate from the territory of contemporary and historical Montenegro, while in a separate section for e.g. "Competing claims for nationality" or simply "Nationality" to be cited and explained the issue in details.--[[User:Miki Filigranski|Miki Filigranski]] ([[User talk:Miki Filigranski|talk]]) 05:28, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
:::{{U|Miki Filigranski}} I caught you red handed. Instead to acknowledge the issue with your edits, you continue to push your POV. The source you misinterpreted does not assert that AZ is Croatian directly nor indirectly. That is not constructive behavior. Please do not repeat it in future.--[[User:Antidiskriminator|Antidiskriminator]] ([[User talk:Antidiskriminator|talk]]) 14:17, 18 June 2019 (UTC)
::::Sorry, but I do not like your tone. Comment on the content and not the editor, who in this case more than acknowledged it, explained and provided RS. I provided three RS, two of them you decided to interpret from a specific POV which neglects Croatian nationalistic context. There is no ''my POV'' neither I am pushing it. Are you saying that Croatian scholarship POV about AZ and his family identity (Montenegrin and Croatian) should not be cited in the article?--[[User:Miki Filigranski|Miki Filigranski]] ([[User talk:Miki Filigranski|talk]]) 15:30, 18 June 2019 (UTC)

== Selective editing ==

{{Ping|Sadko}} Taking our previous encounters into accout how do you explain defending this type of source? You constantly preach against this. Show some consistency. [[User:SerVasi|SerVasi]] ([[User talk:SerVasi|talk]]) 02:48, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
:Translation of one of the sources used for the claim that "Zmajević was born to a Serbian family", just to show what kind of sources are used here. It is from the [[Večernje novosti]] tabloid [https://www.novosti.rs/vesti/naslovna/reportaze/aktuelno.293.html:691805-Hrvati-otimaju-nasu-bastinu]:
:"MEETING HISTORY
:'''Croats are hijacking our heritage'''
:Based on a "take what you like" principle, Zagreb is claiming a part of the Serbian past. There is no doubt for their public when referring to Nikola Tesla or Milutin Milanković"
:Textbook example of a RS? The other source is, of course, yet another interview in yet another daily newspaper. [[User:Tzowu|Tzowu]] ([[User talk:Tzowu|talk]]) 15:18, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
::If it's okay and neutral for [[Vladimir Beara]] (''Beara declared himself as a Croat in the state censuse''s), it should be fine here. '''[[User:Sadko|<span style="color:#EE8833;">Sadkσ</span>]]''' [[User talk:Sadko|<span style="color: #000000;">(talk is cheap)</span>]] 15:31, 29 April 2020 (UTC)

:::I don't remembre that article having such poor taste and a hidden agenda of starting conflict. There is a clear difference between an educational article and whatever u want to call this rant but it is definitely not RS.Also the credibility of the Beara article was verified by GregorB. I wonder what bozo would vouch for this. [[User:SerVasi|SerVasi]] ([[User talk:SerVasi|talk]]) 22:46, 29 April 2020 (UTC)

::::As I said earlier, sources or pamphlets who talk about abducting someone's origin with a political discourse are not RS. If we prove someone's origin etc with pamphlets then only the sky above the Balkans is our limit. Sources do not even say that Andrija Zmajević is from Serbian family, so the thing is very clear, '''deletion'''. [[User:Mikola22|Mikola22]] ([[User talk:Mikola22|talk]]) 05:35, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
:::::Instead of edit warring and causing the article to be fully protected, it just ''might'' have been a better idea to take the discussion to [[WP:RSN]]. Since the article now is locked for a week, there should be ample time to decide if these two references are reliable sources for the claim (which I rather doubt, by the way). Just a thought... --[[User:TU-nor|T*U]] ([[User talk:TU-nor|talk]]) 07:43, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
::::::This sort of bickering is waste of my time. Not worth it. '''[[User:Sadko|<span style="color:#EE8833;">Sadkσ</span>]]''' [[User talk:Sadko|<span style="color: #000000;">(talk is cheap)</span>]] 13:17, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
:::::::{{ping|Sadko}} The {{tq|bickering}} happens to be about the sources you added to support the claim that he was from a Serbian family. Since [[WP:RS]] is a central guideline of Wikipedia, it would be nice if you would spare some time to quote the relevant passages of the sources and per [[WP:NONENG]] give an English translation for the benefit of those of us who do not read the language. --[[User:TU-nor|T*U]] ([[User talk:TU-nor|talk]]) 07:32, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
::::::::{{ping|TU-nor}} I shall adress it a bit more because of your good faith. 1) Novosti are not tabloid but solid newspapers, not great but not that bad either. Author of the first article is a published author.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Zaboravljena istorija Srba – Ivan Miladinović {{!}} -ISTORIJA {{!}} Prosveta|url=http://www.prosveta.rs/drustvene-nauke/istorija/zaboravljena-istorija-srba-ivan-miladinovic|website=www.prosveta.rs|access-date=2020-05-01}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=TAJNA I OPOMENA - Ivan Miladinović|url=https://www.delfi.rs/knjige/99136_tajna_i_opomena_knjiga_delfi_knjizare.html|website=www.delfi.rs|access-date=2020-05-01}}</ref>. In the article he stated quite cleary "Zmajevic was a fierce Serb and fierce Catholic". " The authors is presenting a copy of Zmajević's work on Serb history (which looks more like a praise, it seems). Source is claiming that he converted from Eastern Orthodoxy to Catholicism, which is proved by 2 RS used on the same page, which were removed as well, therefore my reaction. [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Andrija_Zmajević&type=revision&diff=953492362&oldid=953408946&diffmode=source] Novosti article goes on about his cousin admiral Matija Zmajevic. Author's conclusion is pretty good - Most of Croatian MPs keep forgetting a single fact, quite considerable number of personalities and cities are a joint part of both Serb and Croatian history (he is referring to notable Serbs from Croatia etc.). This is my opinion as well, which is repeatedly attacked for some reason. 3) It is clearly stated that Zmajevic was Serb archbishop, and that is written even on his bust in [[Perast]].<ref>{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.rs/books?hl=sr&id=tEA8AQAAIAAJ&dq=Andrija+Zmajevic+Serb&focus=searchwithinvolume&q=Zmajevic|title=Review: Yugolsav Magazine|date=1968|page=528|language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|title=Љетопис: Вицко Змајевић, надбискуп барски и примас српски|url=https://mitropolija.com/2018/12/23/ljetopis-vicko-zmajevic-nadbiskup-barski-i-primas-srpski/|date=2018-12-23|website=Православна Митрополија црногорско-приморска (Званични сајт)|language=sr-RS|access-date=2020-05-01}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.rs/books?hl=sr&id=BFw7AQAAIAAJ&dq=Andrija+Zmajevic+Serb&focus=searchwithinvolume&q=Zmajevic|title=Godisnjak Pomorskog muzeja u Kotoru|date=1968|publisher=Pomorski muzej|language=sr}}</ref> 4) The second article in question is published on a solid Motenegrin portal, it pretty much states that former president of Croatia [[Kolinda Grabar-Kitarović]] made false claims during her visit to Russia, and that Zmajevic is/was a Serb. Another source also claim that Zmajevićs are Serbs/Serb family.[https://www.rastko.rs/rastko-bo/istorija/mvuksanovic-puovic-katolici_l.html].

:::::::::{{u|Sadko}}, thanks for answering. It is, however, not exactly what I asked for. I intend to take this to [[WP:RSN]] for external input, so what I want is not your evaluation of the sources, but the actual quotations your claim is based upon, in the original language and with English translations. --[[User:TU-nor|T*U]] ([[User talk:TU-nor|talk]]) 14:15, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
{{unindent}}{{ping|TU-nor}} Here it is:

1) Novosti English translation:

In his literary work, he expressed multiple interest in history, culture and people of the "Kingdom of Serbia". He maintained friendly relations with the most prominent Serbian notable personalities of his day, with the Metropolitan of Herzegovina Vasili Jovanovic (Saint [[Basil of Ostrog]]) and with Patriarch [[Arsenije III Crnojević]]. He wrote about the patriarch as "our old countryman, dear friend," (this can be seen in the illustration from his capital work "Chronicle of the Church").

He knew the [[Church Slavonic language]] language and the Cyrillic alphabet and that letter, for which he noted was "used by our entire nation," he wrote. He used to say that he was a "fierce Catholic and fierce Serb".

Two of Zmajevic's great literary works have been preserved. The song "Slovinska Dubrava" and "Chronicle of the Year". It's a history of world ideas, from the beggining to the Baroque era, the whole work is written in two paragraphs - left in our national language and in Cyrillic, right in Latin, 1,000 pages long. One version is in Split and the other, more complete, in Cyrillic, is kept - the first part in the Vatican, the second in Padua. Many folk legends and traditions, folk history, epic perceptions of events and the author's personal experience of the past and present have entered into it.

Andrija Zmajevic was the born uncle of Matija Zmajevic, a Russian admiral and certainly one of the most notable members of the Perast family.

Serb-Croatian version: U svom literarnom radu ispoljavao je višestruko interesovanje prema istoriji, kulturi i narodu "kraljevstva Srbije". Održavao je prijateljske veze sa najistaknutijim srpskim prvacima svog doba, s hercegovačkim mitropolitom Vasilijem Jovanovićem (Sveti Vasilije Ostroški) i s patrijarhom Arsenijem III Čarnojevićem. O patrijarhu je pisao da je "po starini zemljak naš, drag prijatelj" (ovo se može videti u ilustraciji iz njegovog kapitalnog dela "Ljetopis crkovni").

ZNAO je crkvenoslovenski jezik i ćirilicu i tim pismom, o kojem je primetio da se njime "služi čitava naša nacija", pisao je. Za sebe je govorio da je "vatreni katolik i vatreni Srbin".

Od Zmajevićevih velikih književnih dela sačuvana su dva. Spev "Slovinska Dubrava" i "Ljetopis crkovni". To je istorija svetskih ideja, od postanja do epohe baroka, pisana dvostubačno - sleva na našem narodnom jeziku i ćirilicom, zdesna na latinskom, na 1.000 stranica. Jedna verzija nalazi se u Splitu a druga, kompletnija, na ćirilici, čuva se - prvi deo u Vatikanu, drugi u Padovi. Tu su ušle mnoge narodne legende i predanja, narodna istorija, epsko viđenje događaja i autorov lični doživljaj prošlosti i savremenosti.

Andrija Zmajević je bio rođeni stric Matije Zmajevića, ruskog admirala i svakako jednog od najzapaženijih izdanaka peraške familije.


2) Motenegrin portal - English translation:

For his claim that Matija Zmajevic considered himself to be Croat, Denis Krnic can't find a single historical source. Therefore, it most probably isn't a coincidence that he is bypassing relevant historical sources, which unequivocally indicate that the Zmajevics were a Serb family of the Catholic faith.

Serbo-Croatian: Za svo­ju tvrd­nju da je Ma­ti­ja Zma­je­vić se­be sma­trao Hr­va­tom, De­nis Kr­nić ne mo­že na­ći ni­je­dan isto­rij­ski iz­vor. Sto­ga, vje­ro­vat­no ni­je slu­čaj­no za­što do­tič­ni za­o­bi­la­zi re­le­vant­ne isto­rij­ske iz­vo­re, ko­ji ne­dvo­smi­sle­no uka­zu­ju da su Zma­je­vi­ći bi­li srp­ska po­ro­di­ca ka­to­lič­ke vje­re.

P.S: There could be a small mistake or two, but that is most probably minor. If anyone want to improve the translation - be my guest.

+ Previously provided source (Review Magazine) also states that Zmajevic collected Serb folk poetry and was a pan-Slavist. '''[[User:Sadko|<span style="color:#EE8833;">Sadkσ</span>]]''' [[User talk:Sadko|<span style="color: #000000;">(talk is cheap)</span>]] 15:15, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
