[edit] Disagreement

I fully disagree with this map to be used as Kosovo's infobox. This is clearly a map prepared by Serbian govt and thus is invalid. Please be more neutral and do not take sides in this topic. THanks, ilir_pz 23:38, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] This map

This mape is not veririfecebel. See this: Image:Breakup of Yugoslavia.gif
and this http://www.auswaertiges-amt.de/diplo/de/Aussenpolitik/RegionaleSchwerpunkte/Suedosteuropa/KosovoStatement060921.pdf

The Contact Group dont definet Kosovo as part of Serbia or Yougoslavia but als part of breaced Yougoslavia. Please make a mape of Yougoslavia witch is presantin Kosovo as Part of Secend Yougoslavia. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 172.181.62.61 (talkcontribs) 04:59 & 05:03, 26 September 2006 (UTC).

Hipi, thanks for pointing out that the map is erroneous. It doesn't show Vojvodina, and it shouldn't imply that Kosovo was equivalent to the republics. I'll fix this problem. -- ChrisO 00:05, 27 September 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for your comments! As to your concerns:
1) I have been wavering on Vojvodina, I'm afraid. For the first two versions, I showed it, and then decided against it since they have pretty much remained intact during the last decade.
2) As for your complaint that the map impies that Kosovo was equal to the republics, you would be right. In the last version of the map, I shaded Kosovo UN blue since they are under UNIMIK control. I hope the newer version of the map doesn't imply that. I say this because I have changed the shade of Kosovo to a shade of red to reflect the fact that Kosovo is de jure a part of Serbia but de facto under UNIMIK control.
Thanks again for your comments, though. If you can help make the map better, pitch in! - Thanks, Hoshie 08:49, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
You could try a dotted line for Kosovo?--Asteriontalk 09:09, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for the idea. I've improved the map. You can see it by refreshing this page. - Thanks, Hoshie 07:47, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

Kosovë/Kosova
