A '''''wojski''''' ({{langx|lt|Vaiskis}}; [[Medieval Latin]]: ''tribunus'', hence sometimes rendered into English as '''tribune''') was an officer in [[medieval]] [[Poland]] and later in [[Lithuania]], responsible for the security of [[voivodeship]]s or districts at times when [[Voivode|voivods]] and [[castellan]]s had accompanied the ''[[szlachta]]'' (nobility) to war.

With time, the ''wojski'''s responsibilities were taken over by [[starosta]]s, and ''wojski'' became an honorary district office in the [[Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth]].
