Talk:List of Latvian supercentenarians/@comment-26916705-20171031163113

There has been made a major improvement of this article.

1. In each place where there mistakenly appeared "Lithuania" or "Lithuanian", there was noted "Latvia" or "Latvian".

2. Reworded at the top. We do not know the exact amount of unvalidated supercentenarians in Latvia. So far there are two supercentenarians mentioned in this article, but there may be more. Therefore, it is better to mention what is known - namely the number of validated or pending Latvian supercentenarians and the number of validated or pending Latvian emigrant supercentenarians which are provided by the Gerontology Research Group.

3. The administrative division of Latvia issue: Please note the current administrative division of Latvia, valid since 2009: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Administrative_divisions_of_Latvia. The country changed its two-level municipalities to one-level municipalities.

4. County as an administrative unit is not present in Latvia. There are municipalities and republican cities.

5. There is no Naujene Municipality. The Naujene Parish is part of the larger unit known as Daugavpils Municipality.

6. Important reference is added: Oldest in Britain website which is the major source for Rachel Wieselberg. According to it, the municipality of birth is Riga (actually being one of nine Latvian metropolitan areas which got the status of Republican cities).

Sincerely,
