Why is Google allowed to change the Church's name in Albania in Greek language,can someone explain?

Hello @LilyanaZ and @ErmesT thank you for your interes to help us.

In the link below you will find the list of churches divided in sheets that we have more than 3 months trying to edit them in albanian language (as they should be)

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/127M2qJ5ulzIMTy5QYDNG7MV5NaEIvh2BCgMIMGknowE/edit?usp=drivesdk

Please note that in the third column you will find their name translated in English.

Hope you are clear about all the situation and if you have any question don’t hastiate to contact me and @Tony_x112

I also hope you can help us to resolve this issue.

Just to note here are only some Churches,monastery and cultural heritage there are a lot like those who need to be changed in the right name,I hope u can help us with the first liste and the then we can go forward with new list.

Thank you from bottom of my heart for the help as @Tony_x112 said we are trying hard to change them as they need to be with the right name in the right place.

Looking forward to your feedback.

Best regards

Lorenc

Hello @deepakjhic here is the post with the list of the Churches and some cultural heritages.

This is just a small list because there out are more and more with wrong suggestions,the bad thing is as we change one in a right way after a week it is changed again with a wrong name.

If u go to the list u will see by your self.

Thank you so much for help

I need to say that Albanian orthodox church is an independent church and has nothing to do with Greek Orthodox Church or Russian orthodox Church so please if u can add a category for Albanian orthodox church would be great if not just change the category from Greek Orthodox church into orthodox Church.

Once again thank you for your help.

Best regards

Hello Google local guides, i have made a post about 1 month ago and as i see till now Google has done nothing to resolve this issue.

Does this need time or is just forgotten!!

Hello @Lorenc27

Creating a new thread, won’t make this process fast. Please keep in mind that it is good to create a single thread for one issue.

As of now, I’ll ask a few question to deep dive in the case and would escalate it from here.

Please share,

  1. What exactly the correct name of that church in English and in Local Language?
  2. Is there any other issue with this listing?

Keep me posted.

@ErmesT could you please merge this thread in original one?

@Lorenc27 , what @deepakjhic said is correct, so I merged your post on the original thread. Following the conversation in a single thread will give to all the person already involved the possibility of being notified about the evolution.

There are 150 million local guides in the world, and the issue highlighted by you may need time to be investigated and fixed

Hello @deepakjhic if u are going to see my first post I have already gave all what Google need,and this is not a normal issue but a big issue because some people are doing wrong suggestions for political reasons and there is no time to wait Google for a year or more that’s why I’m asking again.

Thank you for your support :wave:t2:

Hello @Lorenc27 ,

Thank you for a quick response.

I just checked and found nothing in your first/original post.

Please answer my two questions, it will help us to understand/escalate the issue. Maybe, we can suggest something that may stop further changes for others.

Keep us posted.

Hello @Lorenc27 ,

Thank you for that list.

As of now, I am looking into this monastery only.

Before escalation of this issue, please share any evidence of that monastery name(any web link or sign board will be enough). It could be in English or local language.

Keep me posted.

Thank you for your help @deepakjhic this monastery is the most visited in Albania.

To be honest we have changed this monastery name more than 20 times but as u see they are changed this again and again in the wrong name and with a wrong alphabet,Albanias use Latin script and not Greek script.

Some short information in Albanian from a online news

I found something in Wikipedia too

From Wikipedia

Hello @Lorenc27

I’ll keep you posted further, once I have an update or require more details.

Hello @deepakjhic thank you so much,it looks to be good from the list what i shared with you almost of 95% of the Church’s are in correct name.

I have checked the list and I marked with red :red_circle: the Church’s who are still in wrong suggestions,if u can change them too would be great coz the Google is not accepting the suggestions from Albanians local guide i don’t know why but it’s happening.

Here is the link

It is the same link with the same list just this time the red ones have still wrong suggestions.

Again thank you so much for doing this :pray:t2:
