Shouldn't that be merged with the Studentenverbindung article? -- till we ☼☽ | Talk 09:58, 27 Aug 2004 (UTC)

I'd rather say no; Studentenverbindung is only an umbrella term, the differences between the diverse kinds are pretty significant. --Anarch 10:13, 27 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Yes, but isn't one article about Studentenverbindungen including paragraphs about different kinds and their differences enough for an English language encyclopedia? -- till we ☼☽ | Talk 12:34, 27 Aug 2004 (UTC)

I consider that inappropriate, esp. in regard to the size of this article (and a little more is to come...). It would mean either an overloaded single article or immensely squeezed paragraphs. Especially the topic "student corps" has always proven to be rather attractive for English/American readers, let's keep it separate. --Anarch 18:17, 27 Aug 2004 (UTC)

[edit] NPOV

"Being the oldest and noblest of their kind, the corps tend to treat all other forms of German studentenverbindung with contempt" ?????--Thw1309 06:43, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

Sentence was been deletend, NPOV - Standard reference source in English language is added. Tags consequently removed.--Kresspahl 13:01, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
