Request to add Mass media in Albania under Albania#Culture. 203.149.142.34 (talk) 10:54, 18 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. Melmann 14:43, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I thought it was plain enough what was being asked— to add a "See also" hatnote under the heading from the Culture section—but since there's a main article hatnote there, this link should go in the main article, and I'm also moving to that article the existing "See also" link for Albanian folk beliefs.

Change of mind, actually. Both links are already included there in the Culture of Albania navbox. No need to choose those two arbitrary links as well to include in that article's "See also" section. Largoplazo (talk) 16:54, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Illyrian and Arvanite history[edit]

The claim that the Albanians are related to the Illyrians and the Arvanites, other than sharing the same land that the two tribes once inhabited, has not yet been proven. This theory was created in Albania in recent years and has not been verified until now. Christosk92 (talk) 17:20, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Its already explained in the article how it is. Wikipedia its not a place for Original Research. RoyalHeritageAlb (talk) 23:57, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please change BC to BCE and AD to CE. Modern scholarship prefers the far more inclusive BCE and CE versus BC and AD. This article uses both throughout so changing the date format to BCE and CE will also make the article more stylistically consistent. CuJoYYC (talk) 13:50, 19 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: While I share your preference for BCE/CE overall, see MOS:ERA for the applicable guidelines for Wikipedia articles. As of your writing, BC and BCE were both in use in the article; there was also one use of AD and none of CE. Looking at earlier revisions, I found there was a time when the article (see the revision at https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Albania&oldid=624794034, for example) had only one use of any of BC, BCE, AD, or CE, and it was BC. Therefore, in conformance with the guidelines, I settled on the BC/AD model as the one to follow for this article and changed all the instances of BCE (except in the title in one footnote, which would have been inappropriate to change) to BC.
