Do you have a source that says she was Polish? Working in Poland is not synonymous with being Polish. Every source I saw when I wrote this article said she was Ukrainian, her books are written in Ukrainian. I find the suggestion that she is Polish because it "seems" she worked there to be at odds with the normal need to have content verifiable. I don't want to get into an edit war, but by reverting my edit, you seem to be heading in that direction. So I ask: do you have any source that says she is Polish, or do you only have WP:OR?

A source refers to "Kolomyia, Ukraine" in 1929. However the reality was that in 1929 Kolomyia was part of Poland, and that those there were nationals of Poland. The sourcing uses terms like "Western Ukrainian". Wikipedia uses accepted terms to describe geopolitical realities of a time and place. In 1929 this area was politically part of Ukraine. Those living there were nationals of Ukraine. Wikipedia seeks to be historically accurate, and to use categories that group people by the policy they were nationals of. I have not even tried to remove other categories that invoke nationality. We need to be hisotrically accurate, and many sources are not. We do not slavishly follow them when the clear evidence is that they are using current names for places, when our policy is to use the names for places as they were when events occured. In 1929 Kolomya was part of Poland, and so a reference we would have that would refer to that place would refer to Kolomyia, Poland. There was no Ukraine in 1929, all people living in the modern era were nationals of either the Soviet Union or Poland, and all who were doing significant things in that year should be placed in the category that connects those significnat things and the nation they were in, thus writers in that area would be either Soviet writers or Polish writers. Based on all the evidence of her being in "Western Ukraine", where the publication was made, and related items she was a Polish writer. Now some might argue that we should have the category be Category:Writers in the Second Polish Republic, to make it clear we are grouping writers who were nationals of That polity.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:47, 1 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
