If Wikipedia can support the page Beneš decrees, then can we move this to Edvard Beneš? Timrollpickering 19:44, 11 Oct 2004 (UTC)
- I've requested the change on Wikipedia:Requested moves. Timrollpickering 12:10, 5 Dec 2004 (UTC)
[edit] Edvard Benes → Edvard Beneš
- The original reason given for this location was that Wikipedia could not support the "š" in a title; however the Beneš decrees page exists. Timrollpickering 12:10, 5 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Strongly opposed. The Beneš decrees article is seriously broken - š in the title is wrongly encoded as %9A, which is neither ISO-8859-1 nor UTF-8. This breaks tools expecting standard-conforming URLs.-- Naive cynic 23:32, 6 Dec 2004 (UTC)- See also bugzilla:65#c17. Thanks! Gangleri | Th | T 10:09, 2005 Feb 27 (UTC)
- Now, due to the UTF-8 conversion, both could work. -- Adam78 28 June 2005 14:35 (UTC)
- Indeed. Supported. -- Naive cynic 28 June 2005 15:35 (UTC)
- Supported, of course. Juro 28 June 2005 18:43 (UTC)
I've acted so. After the UTF-8 conversion there is no reason not to move. --Pjacobi June 28, 2005 18:59 (UTC)
[edit] Censorship in the article
It is well-known that Benes did not simply die, but rather he was assasinated by the communist secret police, who dumped him through the window. For a man who did such evil against hundreds of thousands of german and hungarian people and whose name remains cursed for seventy-seven generations to come, such violent ending was very fitting, and should not be supressed!
- Assuming that you are in good faith, anon, are you sure you are not confusing him with Jan Masaryk? -- Alan Peakall 20:19, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
Benes died of natural causes. Jan Masaryk was the one who fell through the window. Whatever Benes did to the Germans was not as evil as what the germans did to the czechs. Let's have some perspective eh!?
