Unfortunately I have been unable to attend to this discussion and other work at Wikipedia for some time but I must say in retrospect that it was probably naive to believe that it would be possible to solve the major structural problems with the set of historical state articles relating to Czechoslovakia with a few simple changes in one go and without being able to set aside the time to follow these changes through Problems still persist with that set of articles however it is not my intention to get particularly involved with the case of one single country My perspective is that of the whole body of articles relating to former countries and from this perspective there is not only structural problems with the case for Czechoslovakia but with a large segment of former country cases Regarding the over all structure for former country articles including some of which has existed not as a single but in fact several states through its history there is a lot of work to be done in order to present information in a way that is more adapted towards the needs of the reader than to maintaining a habitual style developed by particular editors for a single country This work goes on in WikiProject Former countries and anyone who wants to contriubute to this process should feel free to join in Suggestions to redress these and other issues will be forthcoming from the project other questions like the proper use of project infobox templates will also be coordinated
