English: Janek Wiśniewski was an innocent victim of the massacres of the Polish 1970 protests. His real name was Zbigniew Godlewski and on his gravestone his name is written as Zbyszek, which is a diminutive version of Zbigniew. The cause for his fictional name in culture is the fact that his identity was unknown at the time when the Ballad of Janek Wisniewski was popularized.

Polski: Janek Wiśniewski. Prawdziwym imieniem i nazwiskiem jest Zbigniew Godlewski. Przyczyną fikcyjnego imienia i nazwiska w kulturze jest fakt, że gdy spopularyzowano Balladę o Janku Wiśniewskim jego prawdziwa tożsamość była nieznana.
