[edit] Names

I have modified the template to include the Albanian names of municipalities because Albanian is the primary and one of the two official languages of Kosovo, the other being Serbian language. This way, we achieve a neutral point of view, as is required.--Arbër Let's talk 16:24, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

This can be verified by examining the UNMIK Regulation 2000/43, which can be found here.--Arbër Let's talk 15:16, 25 February 2008 (UTC)


Navigational templates are merely intended to facilitate navigation between articles for English-speakers, and not to provide a full list of official languages (something that can be done in each individual article). Therefore, simplicy, usability & comprehensibility by English-speakers are the main factors to consider.
Besides, the English Wikipedia does not follow UN, UNMIK, NATO, DoD or Greenpeace regulations & naming conventions, but its own. - Ev (talk) 03:49, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] POV

Name of this template is POV. Neutraly is "Municipalities of the of Kosovo". Becouse Kosovo isn't recognized as state by all conturis. So we can't say Republic of Kosovo. I will move flag, and Coat of arms becouse this is also pov --Jovanvb (talk) 13:04, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

I would support changing to "Municipalities of Kosovo" but not removing the flag and Coat of Arms --Cradel 17:42, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
