Bulgarian Cyrillic Fonts
Aloha, Jingiby, are you aware of any Bulgarian Cyrillic language templates? (I mean these thingy like шрифт but using Bulgarian Cyrillic?) The general template is awful, and I certainly have objections to using either Russian or Serbian Cyrillic fonts. I don't find anything, but you are an ol' dog, perhaps you know something I don't. Thanks in advance. VMORO 11:42, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
- Hi VMORO, sorry but I am not aware with this matter. Jingiby (talk) 17:06, 6 March 2024 (UTC)

Question
Hey Jingiby, hope you and yours are safe and doing well.
I have a question. I saw this edit by Serbian1331 stating Vukasin was never captured in 1369.
The sentence(s) in question:
- "Vukašin had claimed it as the co-ruler of Stefan Uroš V, whereas Andrea II claimed it on the grounds that the border between Albania and Bulgaria lied at the Pelister mountain, specifically the Dobrida spring. Vukašin gathered an army and marched towards Muzaka's territory, prompting Andrea to gather an army of his own and confront the king at Pelister in 1369. The battle at Pelister ended with the victory of Andrea II, and Vukašin himself was taken prisoner."[1]
Which is supported by the reference;
- "Vukashin was the king of Bulgaria who ruled land almost all the way to Adrianople and who was always among the great enemies of the emperor of Constantinople."
- "The king had made ready a great army and had arrived to attack Epirus, which was under the rule and reign of the aformentioned Lord Andrew...[..]..They met at a place called Mount Peristeri where there is a spring called Dobrida which is the border between Albania and Bulgaria. And as the day dawned, the said king was vanquished in those cliffs. He was taken prisoner, as was a son of his called Duslandi."-- Robert Elsie, Early Albania: A Reader of Historical Texts; 11th-17th centuries, page 41.
Is Vukašin, Vukašin of Serbia? Or is there some other Vukašin? --Kansas Bear (talk) 23:55, 11 March 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Kansas Bear, I'm not aware that there was another Vukashin ruler.Jingiby (talk) 08:39, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
