@StanProg: This is an ancient city at the place of present-day Ohrid. What is the point to add the Ottoman Empire, Yugoslavia and so on if Lychnidus ceased to exist in the 6th century? Pasztilla (talk) 05:56, 8 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Pasztilla: Good catch. I did a mass edit of the vilalges, towns and cities and I've missed to exclude this one. When I look at the data, maybe it should not be defined as "town", but just as "archaeological site". Maybe there's even better way to define it. My concern is that other mass edits may also set values that are not related to it. What do you think? --StanProg (talk) 10:08, 8 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@StanProg: I think you are right, we better switch from town to ancient city (Q15661340), and I'm thinking in these case dissolved, abolished or demolished date (P576) should also be defined to avoid chronological anomalies. I am not very pro in mass querying and mass editing, but did it for this entity. Pasztilla (talk) 10:20, 8 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Pasztilla: ancient city (Q15661340) is a perfect solution. I'm not sure that dissolved, abolished or demolished date (P576) is related to settlements, but it's easy to be "detected" and changed in future if needed. Good job, thank you. --StanProg (talk) 10:31, 8 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Pasztilla: Also we need a way to define that it's currently in North Macedonia, as archeological object. --StanProg (talk) 10:35, 8 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, you're absolutely right. Pasztilla (talk) 11:22, 8 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
