[edit] Thank You

for writing about me to Matthead in German, supposedly behind my back. I don't mind of course but it's just funny, that's all. Dein freund Weltraumkadett (talk) 20:07, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

Also, if you have questions about WIKI policies, you can always ask me. In the particular case that interested you, it goes from 3 to 0 because of the block period over 24 hours (in my case 48). But if you're blocked for only 12 hrs, your last revert could still be counted if it is within 24 hrs until your next revert.
My efforts are not "nonsense", (the outcome of the Danzig vote might be, but I still respect it as the community consensus), I'm just upholding and enforcing the double naming rule. I'm not proposing Królewiec (Kruläwjetch or Kruläwjätz) in let's say 19th century. Now that would be a "quark". Check this out: [1]. See what I'm saying?

It really looked like behind my back since Królewiec was spelled Kruläwjetch, as if to hide it, but I believe you. Some of my friends are fluent in German (I'm still at 0), too bad they didn't tell me about the nouns written in caps. As far as "double naming all Polish cities during the partitions", it already happened. In the lead we write Posen (Poznań) and then Posen throughout the article. At least in most cases. (I know we haven't reached everywehere with this system yet, and I'm sure you'll find exceptions). So maybe now you understand me better. Davies, of course, didn't write an encyclopedia, but a popular book and in the eighties, during the Cold War.
