Talk:Reunification

[edit] unification and reunification! there is a difference.

I split up the section on completed reunifications into one section on complete reunifications of divided nation-states and put the other entires on the "unification" processes of Italy and Bulgaria into a section on unification processes. There are significant differences - politcally, historically, and legally between the reunification of countries that once formed a united entity but were eventually divided (post WW2-Germany, Yemen, Vietnam) and the formation or gradual amaligamation of various states to form a new nation (Italy, Imperial Germany, Bulgaria, etc.). After all there is a reason why the (re-) prefix is added to form reunification. I reccomend the current form be maintainted unless somebody has arguments to the contrary. --Westee 14:51, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

Fair enough, I was only suspicious of possible vandalism since Poland was initially removed. Sorry for my gut reaction, I'm fine with the distinction. —Nightstallion (?) Seen this already? 12:47, 4 May 2006 (UTC)

I've "reunified" these two sections. Wihle I appreciate the thinking behind it, I found the division confusing until I read the Talk: page (not everybody does that). I hope my intro comment and supply of dates is adequate compensation. This is a disambiguation page, not a discussion of "reunification" as a diverse concept. I've also implemented some of the Disambiguation style guidelines. jnestorius(talk) 05:33, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Strange additions

If anyone's got any sources on that, I'd be highly interested. —Nightstallion (?) 20:11, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

Some vandal removed British Isles Reunification. This is just as legitimate a goal if not more so than Irish Reunfication (something which can't happen anyway because the ireland of Ireland was never a seperate independent state). I am removing Irish reunfication seeing as it is impossible in the context the Irish Nationalist seeks, and adding British Isles reunfication. Ireland should never have been allowed to break away from the rest of the UK in the first place and the only way to achieve Irish unity is for this rebel province to rejoin the rest of the UK where it belongs.YourPTR! 03:04, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

I am the vandal you speak of there is no political motavation for the British Isles to reunite no political party advocates this--Barrytalk 23:40, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

Sorry for calling you a vandal. There is a political party advocating this and that is the British National Party. The Irish Unionist Alliance may also field candidates in the Irish Republic in the future on a pro reunification with the United Kingdom platform. YourPTR! (talk) 15:39, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] British Reunification

I've given it another go to add this as I feel it is an important potential reunification that was missing. It may be very unlikely, at least in the short to medium term, but it is one reunification I would dearly love to see and I can't be the only one that feels that way. It is a hypothetical reunification so it should be included. YourPTR! (talk) 15:36, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

I reworded it due to the fact that ireland is and never was in anyway 'British'. P.S. you are in a minority favouring a reunification of Ireland and Britain, as a proud irishman i hope your vision doesnt come true but i would love to see a United Ireland, but anyway this is a discussion page about improving articles so lets keep it like that.
