[edit] Disambiguation

How should this page be disambiguated? What links should point to Bosnia and Hercegovina, and which to Bosnia proper? --Smack (talk) 06:23, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

The Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina is actually never expressed as "Bosnia". Rather only "Federacija" (primary by Bosnian Serbs).

[edit] Merging Bosnian

The only entry in Bosnian not here is Bosnian language, so I think it should be merged here. On another note, this should be moved to Bosnia (which needs an administrator), unless retargeting Bosnia is preferable (it seems that both Bosnia and Herzegovina and Bosnia (region) would be reasonable, so Bosnia should be a dab page).

[edit] Nationalist allusions

the use of Bosniak used sinominously with bosnian is absolutly un acceptable.

The other 2 contitutent ethnic groups of Bosnia- Herzegovina believe they are as indigenous to Bosnia, if not more, than Bosniaks. Again, inlcude neither ethnic group or all, not soley just Bosniak!

I agree with your opinion, but I don't see where the word is being used this way. Could you please show us? --Smack (talk) 15:54, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

sure nowories

I think it is pritty clear what user Bosoni is trying to allude to: ie Bosniaks are the heirs to Bosnia.

quite frankly wikipedia is about neutrality, and 2(Serbs and Croats)! of the 3 CONSTITUENT NATIONS of BiH have a very conflicting view with this, so therefore their view, regarding a ISSUE that CONCERNS THEM, should also be heard.

i suggested 2 neutral versions, which would be NUETRAL to ALL concerned parties, however it seems that Bosnoni is very eager to pass his very one minded revisionist agenda regarding the history of BiH.

This is the version i would want to pass

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bosnia_%28disambiguation%29&oldid=71162156 or as a last resort include Croats and Serbs aswell!

however Bosnoni wants this: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bosnia_%28disambiguation%29&oldid=72221430

quite a diference isnt there..?..again it is ironic that Bosoni puts a Neutrality tag on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bosnians 'Note on use of term 'Bosnian-Herzegovinian' and as i can see from his contribution to the discussion page has some issues with describing the actions of some Bosniaks "aggresive" with regards to the noun Bosnian and sinominsouly associating it to Bosniaks.

CLEARLY the user Bosoni is the epitome of these 'agressive efforts' through his actions on the http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bosnia_%28disambiguation%29&oldid=72221430

  1. Regarding Bosnia (disambiguation): I think that 'Bosniak' should be included on the page, though the wording should not imply that Bosniaks are the only ethnicity in Bosnia. At the same time, I believe that 'Croat' and 'Serb' should not be included, because of the rules governing dab pages: the names are not ambiguous with 'Bosnian,' so they don't need to be dabbed. Note that the links to Bosnia and Herzegovina, etc. refer to the place and all of its inhabitants, not just Bosniaks.
  2. Regarding Bosnians: I do not know enough about the issue to comment. Furthermore, the disputed section is poorly written, and I can't understand it. --Smack (talk) 18:29, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
