[edit] Invalid title?

Are there any more unresolved issues (see Template talk:Invalidtitle) relating to the article's title? Ardric47 18:03, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

Well, technical issues regarding "Aš" seem to have been solved at Wikipedia. The town's official website (www.muas.cz) in English calls it "Municipality of As" [1], and "Městský úřad Aš" [2] in Czech. One wonders why not its official English name, As, is used here? Or Ash, how the Czech name would be pronounced? Or Asch, as the traditional name before 1918/1945? Before 1920, only Czech POV knew +Aš +Bohemia date:0-1920, while already hundred years earlier +Asch +Bohemia date:0-1820 was known by the international public. -- Matthead  DisOuß   15:07, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
