:Difficult to comment on. Historically and culturally it is known by both (Patriarch of Peć, League of Peja) and there has been no extensive coverage of the town since the Kosovo war ended in 1999. Those days they used the name as in Serbian. The article is still on Peć so that would be the place to begin requesting a move. Basically exonyms and endonyms do not have to match (e.g. Brussel, Bruxelle, and English Brussels). --[[User:Oranges Juicy|OJ]] ([[User talk:Oranges Juicy|talk]]) 10:37, 5 September 2017 (UTC) |

Kosovo War Casualties
The Etymology contains, "As a result, the Kosovo War began in March 1998 until June 1999, where 13,548 civilians were killed including 90% of Kosovo-Albanians were displaced at that time." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kosovo#cite_ref-17
While the article for the Kosovo War states (in the... box thing) that "13,548 civilians and fighters dead overall (Albanians, Serbs, Bosniaks, Roma)" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kosovo_War#cite_ref-59
Does this statistic include both civilians and fighters? Also I'm not sure how that statistic might include "90% of Kosovo-Albanians were displaced at that time." It appears to be a grammatical error or I'm just reading it wrong. BulgingBuddy (talk) 01:57, 11 May 2017 (UTC) Hey, I'm new.
- The Serbian Army expelled most of the ethnic Albanians from their homes, aiming at ethnically cleansing the region from Albanians. This is a well evidenced fact that just happened less than 20 years ago, an is documented in details. Whether the correct proportion of displaced is 89%, 91% or 95%, that is a matter of accounting.2A02:8108:91C0:87CC:ACD5:BEFD:A4EF:1D42 (talk) 22:38, 19 September 2017 (UTC)

Pec for Peje
In the article it is mentioned that Pec is one of the biggest cities in Kosovo. That is the Serbian cyrillic version of the city name Peja (in Albanian). I believe both versions should be included in the article, since that would confuse tourists who go there to visit.
