- Referring to Napoleon's France, where the link instead goes to modern France.
- Create redirects: If the article for the correct state does not yet exist, create a redirect to the nearest existing article (if possible) and place {{WPFC|class=Needed}} on the redirect's talk page. Whether or not a redirect has been created, list the wanted article below under "Needed".

This article could really use a map illustrating the state's expansion from Chelmno Land. Ksenon 00:44, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Maps are now in Commons
Hi,
I just added the commons interwiki. I wondered where the hell was the template Template:NowInCommons (or alike) as far as I could remember ; sorry I was just unable to find it.
Could you please tag the 3 pics ? The sentence links the pic to the commons Counterpart.

[edit] Chelmno
"...Konrad now suffered from retalliatory strikes, when Prussians sought to clear their territory in Culmerland/Culmigeria from partial take-over by Konrad's troops..."
In the relevant article it is stated that the city was founded by Poles in the XI century. What's the truth? Ksenon 15:50, 11 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Edit sign problem
When the edit signs are showing, there's something amiss with the one for the 14th Century section. I don't know how to fix this.qp10qp 16:52, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
