Signatories[edit]
This is going slowly since there are thunderstorms going on here, causing occasional disconnections. Question: Would it be possible to have more details about the social backgrounds of the signatories, apart from the noble families, since this is mentioned in the lead?

- Currently it is everything I got about this issue. Thanks for copy edit! M.K. 17:30, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
- I was planning to do some more cp-edit today or tomorrow...if it's OK with you. Also a little more research, altho it looks like you got all the online stuff already, but you never know, sometimes a few more minutes unearths a new and golden reference. Later, Novickas 17:59, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
- Maybe you have some ideas how to rename those headlines "Activities before the Act of Independence" , to some more better practical? M.K. 12:12, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

- Hmm, no ideas about that just now. The thing is, this article kind of breaks new ground. The closest prototype
among GAs is List of signatories of the United States Constitution, but that's just a list. The title, tho - I'd like to see it renamed "Signatories of the Lithuanian Act of Independence (1918)" in case sometime there is a similar article for 1990. Another thing: I assumed the Lithuanian Christian Democratic Party was conservative based on this [1] even tho the actual word conservative is not in there, and they are the modern-day version of the party. Your thoughts? Congrats on the DYK! Novickas 14:47, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks Renata. About the name - a google "signatories to" site:.edu brings up quite a few entries, and would eliminate the double use of of, which is a little awkward-sounding. How about "Signatories to the Lithuanian Act of Independence". Iki, Novickas 13:51, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
- No prob :) Hm, title... I don't really like "Lithuanian" but I guess it would work, because "Signatories to the Act of Independence of Lithuania" is too bulky. But at least then it would macth the title of Act of Independence of Lithuania. Don't know, you decide, our residing English expert :P Renata 17:31, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah, Signatories to the Act of Independence of Lithuania is bulky, especially if "List of" is added to it, but it seems the best to me. Definitely ready for mainspace, but where? As a featured list, it has a lot more info than List of signatories of the United States Constitution, but we need Renata's input about where it fits best, as a list or whatever. A similar article for the US Declaration of Independence would be nice, and maybe someone would then be inspired to write that.

- Or maybe name it just Signatories of Lithuania (1918)? M.K. 13:01, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
