Bundesrat and other issues edit

Hallo, I don't know why you are so bent on including this but let me explain my reasoning:

  • President of the Bundesrat is not a position independent of being Minister President. The Presidents simply serve in turns, one after the other. Being elected is a mere formality.
  • While the President of the Bundesrat serves as a deputy of the Federal President and hence is technically something like Vice President (an office that does not exist), he does not hold any authority or political power in that regard. He merely replaces the President in case of a temporary absence or, in case of premature leaving of office, until the next president is elected.
  • I think it in order (though not required) to mention that someone held that post ... in the article but not in the intro.
  • I also think it in order to mention it in the intro of the current occupant, in this case Harald Ringstorff.
  • I don't think it in order to include prediction that someone will hold that post. a) it is a mere formality, b) we cannot know whether that person, due to be president, will be around at tht time.

As for other issues:

  • I do not object to including Filbinger's CDU chairmanship and vice chairmanship (not Vice President of the CDU) in the intro, as long as we can put it in a concise manner. It is covered in detail in the article.
  • His particular denomination is not linked to his political stance: he was a Catholic and he also was a conservative politician.
  • There is no reason to obscure the fact that the "criticism" refers not to an earlier war but to the Second World War.

I am also putting this on the article's talk page. Please reply there (if you will). Str1977 (smile back) 09:40, 17 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

I want to contact you. There are certain issues that can be better discussed privately. You won't be giving anything away, no one will see your address. Str1977 (smile back) 09:49, 24 April 2007 (UTC)Reply
Very well, done. Basedview22 13:25, 25 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Space Cadet edit

You are welcome to delete my comments from your Talk Page. That lets me know that you've read them.

I'm not "Space Cadet's friend". I haven't interacted with him much and I've been editing these Germany/Poland pages for over a year. In fact, I created the Expulsion of Germans from Czechoslovakia after World War II article.

My reverts of your edits are not in support of Space Cadet but in support of the consensus wording arrived after much discussion and debate. If you wish to change this consensus, you are welcome to re-open the discussion on the Talk Pages of the articles in question. However, you should refreain from edit warring over text that has been established by consensus.

Anybody who engages in edit warring is subject to being blocked. That's a fact, not a threat.

That said, I would appreciate it if you would discuss any of your edits that is reverted (i.e. take it to the Talk Page). Edit warring is bad for Wikipedia because it is disruptive and is counter-productive since it wastes everybody's time.

There is no "text established by consensus", and such a ridiculous claim makes it clear that you are, in fact, one of the Polish POV pushers. I suggest you read the talk page if you are really ignorant of the Erika Steinbach controversy that has been going on since 2004 (or more precisely: her biography getting vandalized by Poles). Your edit warring may, like Space Cadet has experiencied 7 times, lead to a block. Yes, the Polish edit warring is extremely disruptive, and I think Wikipedia finally ought to find a solution to all this shit. Blocking all access from Poland would be a good idea.

3RR edit

You have been blocked for 24 hours for violating the 3RR policy on Charles University in Prague. You may resume editing after the block expires, but continued edit warring will result in longer blocks without further warning. Kafziel Talk 17:37, 30 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Your block has been extended to 48 hours for this comment, and you will no longer be allowed to edit this page during that time. I strongly suggest you reform your behavior before you continue editing after the block expires. Kafziel Talk 19:01, 30 April 2007 (UTC)Reply
Block has now been reset because you attempted to evade it by editing anonymously under an IP address, 71.99.122.201. Further sockpuppetry will cause the block to be extended indefinitely. Kafziel Talk 19:38, 30 April 2007 (UTC)Reply

Hello Basedview22! I agree with you! The page ist wrong! Noting from the German University in Prague!--Bauernfreund 13:46, 14 May 2007 (UTC)Reply


Maybe you can check the spelling of this side: German Charles-Ferdinand University


German Charles-Ferdinand University edit

Hello Wenn Sie interessiert sind and der Deutschen Universität in Prag, vielleicht können sie die Seite, die ich angefangen habe, überarbeiten. German Charles-Ferdinand University
