Notes
Input Wikidata Q30007958 identifies the Rokitno Ghetto, not the settlement. Corrected to settlement Q2162658. Earlier-name sources vary between Охотнікове/Охотникове and Okhotnikove/Okhotnykove; replacement by Rokytne is recorded in 1922. The neighbouring village also named Rokytne is distinct. Standard-derived forms are retrieval aids, not claims of English prose frequency.
