GDP(PPP)

Average income per capita in Lithuania is not more than 1000 Eur, how did you get USD 54000 average income per capita per year ? this makes EUR 4000 per month. Stop lying. 86.38.62.82 (talk) 06:52, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please familiarize yourself with the difference between GDP, GNI and, let's say, gross average wage. Also, WP:CIVIL. -- Mindaur (talk) 09:07, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

English Pronunciation

Only the BrE pronunciation is given. AmE standard pronunciation is Lithuania (/ˌlɪθuˈeɪniə/) with the yod-dropping.Venqax (talk) 00:01, 19 April 2024 (UTC) 00:01, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No need to provide all variations as this would add extra clutter, per MOS:DIAPHONEMIC. -- Mindaur (talk) 09:30, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ww2 lithuanian

Incorrect preposition used in the section "Efforts to Restore Statehood"

Hello. Per the second paragraph, second sentence of "Efforts to Restore Statehood" ... please note, the correct preposition in this case is 'on', not, 'of'. This is a very important distinction. Pressure or repression against the Catholic Church of Lithuania was applied by the Tsar ON the Catholic Church of Lithuania. The phrase currently reads, "pressure OF the Catholic Church", which implies that the pressure came from the Catholic Church of Lithuania against itself (which makes no sense in this context), when it was actually coming from Tsarist Russia against the Catholic Church of Lithuania. 2601:547:CB00:3D40:0:0:0:5CC9 (talk) 07:03, 27 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
