| So I took the freedom to edit the article and I've done mostly various formatting, such as for references with "cite web" template and breaking the list. Anyway, very good candidate for DYK, in my opinion, as it's fairly broad and referenced (though many are Slovak), well, I couldn't write it better.

| : Dear Tankred. I think this is where our role ends. Being outsiders (least I'm not a reputed historian :) so I can only digitalize maps from my sources/books/atlas/etc. The Hungarian historiography denies even the existence of the so called "Great" Moravia. It wasn't so Great, it wasn't an Empire, and the archeological findings are too ambiguous. (this is a long debated issue, just think on the Hungarian-Slavic Congress's results and speeches - around 1960). | |||
| : IMO even the wikipedia logic is defective in this case. We are not in charge here to decide which theory strive for perfection. We can only add branching logic to the articles. | |||
| : However I will add a new layer to the map representing the extent of the Great Moravian Empire, accoring to the Slovakian historiography. Is this OK? Regards --] 10:34, 27 June 2007 (UTC) | |||

Although we don't have name issue (finally!), I fear that prose may be criticized and copyright issue with coat-of-arms may be brought up, too, though I don't see anything on that discussion moving.

| :I guess so... but I think even permission itself may be criticized at the FA review , because although it allows language mutations, it restricts it into Bratislava article and only to Misplaced Pages, what fits more into fair use, even though I'd like to preserve that image on the Commons.

| Ok. But the problem is, that I don't see why many non slovak people are listed as Slovakians. From the talkpage: | |||
| *If somebody lived/lives in the today's territory of Slovakia means that he/she was/is automatically a Slovak? | |||
| *Slovakia did not exist as a political or cultural entity until the beginning of the 20th century | |||
| *if you want to distinguish between ethnic Slovaks and "people of significance to Slovakia", at least stop Slovakizing their names | |||
| *Using this same standard for Hungarians and Czechs, Joseph Haydn could be called a famous Hungarian (he spent a significant amount of time in Hungary, Kismarton and Eszterháza), or Gustav Mahler could be called a famous Czech, or Pavel Országh a famous Hungarian (he wrote Hungarian poems, translated some works of Petőfi, Madách). | |||

| ==Hungarian names== | |||
| I do not understand why you removed Hungarian names from articles of majority Hungarian cities in Slovakia. According to ] article, "Hungarian is officially recognized as a minority or regional language in Austria, Croatia, Romania, Bukovina, Zakarpattia in Ukraine, and Slovakia." Language is official and all these cities are majority Hungarian where most of citizens use those names. So, why you removed them? | |||
| :I did not remove any names from the article. All the names in minority languages are listed in the first sentence of the lead in every article in question. I do not think there is any need to repeat them in infoboxes. As to their legal status in Slovakia, the names in a minority language have a lower (not equal) legal status (see the Constitution of the Slovak Republic and the legal act ''Zákon 191/1994 Z.z. o označovaní obcí v jazyku národnostných menšín''). Moreover, inclusion of two and more names in a town infobox is controversial and there is no consensus among editors. Two languages are used in the case of Transylvania. But many other local infoboxes (e.g. Alsace-Lorraine, Belgium, Estonia, India, Latvia, Lithuania, Turkey) include only the name in the official language. I do not oppose a broader discussion about the Slovak towns infobox and I will be happy to implement any consensus arising from such a discussion. However, the change you have proposed should be discussed by all the relevant editors of the articles about Slovakia. ] 11:24, 11 August 2007 (UTC) | |||
| ::I mean you removed names from infoboxes. Ok, you say Hungarian names have lower legal status then Slovak, so would you accept compromise that we write Hungarian names with smaller letters? I think we should have Hungarian names in infoboxes because Hungarians are majority in these cities and these names are used by majority of local citizens. Articles about majority Hungarian cities in Romania and Serbia have Hungarian names in infoboxes and ] article about city in Slovakia also have Hungarian name (but with smaler letters). Why articles about Dunajská Streda, Kolárovo, and other should not have Hungarian names with smaler letters? ] 17:22, 11 August 2007 (UTC) | |||
| :::I would not mind having Hungarian names in the infoboxes of the Slovak towns with a Hungarian majority if they are written in a smaller font (reflecting their legal status). ] 13:23, 12 August 2007 (UTC) | |||
| == Magyarization == | |||
| Please let Hungarian Jews be Hungarians if they want to be Hungarians. That's their decision, not yours, OK? ] 18:58, 12 August 2007 (UTC) | |||
