Talk:Włodzimierz Krzyżanowski

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article is part of WikiProject Alaska, an effort to create, expand, organize, and improve Alaska-related articles to a feature-quality standard.

"After the war, Krzyżanowski served as the first American administrator of Alaska."

This may not be true; let's locate references. (Anchorage Daily News, Dec 17, 2002, "Poland honors second 'ski' to lead Alaska") -- seemed to indicate there was no evidence to support that claim

[edit] Spelling

Is his last name really spelled Krzyżanowski and not Krzyżanówski? --Angr (tɔk) 22:03, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

Yes, the current spelling is correct. See here: http://encyklopedia.pwn.pl/38950_1.html Gdabski 20:24, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

If either of you guys has proficiency in this, would you be willing to add the pronunciation of his name to the article in IPA format? (You should hear how many variants American Civil War guides come up with for this.) Hal Jespersen 22:04, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
