DYK suggestion[edit]

Here is one "did you know" option:

...that for organizing a revolt on an Ottoman slave galley and freeing Christian slaves, Hetman Ivan Sulyma received a medal from Pope Paul V?

Any input is welcome. --Riurik ^(discuss) 19:51, 23 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

As much as I'd like to see this DYKed (and the hook is quite interesting), this is borderline lenght (I'd still classify this as a stub). Can you dig some more facts to expand the article? I couldn't find anything in English or Polish Internet (and I don't have access to my Polish library right now).--_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | talk} 06:10, 24 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I added a short addition with a citation. As for the length, the article is short, but it technically meets the requirement of over 1000 characters so I do not think this will be a problem. --Riurik ^(discuss) 06:54, 24 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
