This should be renamed to either "Nowy Świat" or "Ulica Nowy Świat". I don't know how many times I have to make this known in Polish articles, one DOES NOT translate "ulica" to street, just as one does not translate the French "rue" or the German "strasse". I vote to rename this article and to explicitly codify this convention in some way. --~~ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.73.72.190 (talk) 06:12, 1 February 2014 (UTC)

Translation of the name

"Nowy Świat" is commonly understood as "New World" (by modern Poles) due to the change (or narrowing) the meaning of the noun świat over centuries, but in fact the name of the street means "New Clearance" or "New Open Space" (which could be perhaps back-translated to modern Polish as "Nowy Prześwit"). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 37.248.119.54 (talk) 14:18, 23 November 2017 (UTC)

1 km (1 mi)

One mile is not a kilometre. So how long is the street actually? --81.18.214.118 (talk) 00:26, 25 August 2019 (UTC)
