[edit]Is "Lands of Schlawe and Stolp" the correct name? I am trying to figure out what's the term used in Polish literature. There is the Słupsk (Stolp) Land (ziemia słupska) that's used relatively often, but Sławno Land (Sławno (Schalwe) Land is rarely used (ziemia sławska), and there is no ziemia słupsko-sławska or ziemia sławsko-słupska. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk 00:42, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
- "Lands of Schlawe and Stolp" gets zero hits on gbooks [1] (all of these are Wikipedia mirrors).
- "Lands of Stolp and Schlawe" gets one hit on gbooks [2]
- "Lands of Slupsk and Slawno" gets one hit on gbooks [3].
- "Lands of Slawno and Slupsk" gets zero hits on gbooks [4]
- "Schlawe and Stolp" gets 6 hits, after we subtract off German language sources, Wikipedia mirrors and instances of "Schlawe, and Stolp" [5].
- "Stolp and Schlawe" appears to do better and gets 14 hits [6] (note some hits are redundant) but at least 3 of those are about Bismarck rather than the historical land.
- "Slupsk and Slawno" gets 10 hits, subtracting off irrelevant as before [7]
- "Slawno and Slupsk" gets 9 hits [8].
So it's pretty close. In general though it seems it should be either "Slupsk and Slawno" or "Stolp and Schlawe" but not "Slawno and Slups" or "Schlawe and Stolp". Volunteer Marek 17:05, 16 February 2011 (UTC)
