Talk:Wałbrzych

message: I restored to more neutral version. We shouldn't represent an controversial author whose books are published by political organisations with animosity to Poland and who made huge mistakes about history of Polish cities as source of ultimate truth.All viewpoints should be presented in neutral way. --Molobo (talk) 16:22, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Concur. Wałbrzych is a notable Polish city of considerable size. Attempts at political irredentism inspired by German textbooks with connections to Nazi sympathizers will not be tolerated. As far as grievances by User:Karasek are concerned, please take them to a more appropriate board in the future. --Poeticbent talk 15:24, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

message: ..., the "scholary source" of the town's website, is a collection of commercial links and not the address of an encyclopedia. Skäpperöd (talk) 16:38, 21 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: The site is for sale, "Domena na sprzedaż". The only google hit for "WAO Encyklopedia" is this wiki entry, the town´s website is not up to date it seems. --ThePiedCow (talk) 18:43, 1 April 2009 (UTC)

message: I attributed the claims, but as this dispute is ongoing perhaps mediation needs to be started, also I will try to get hold of some more sources. Added one source and added different view. Also removed Germanised names as too early for shared history.--Molobo (talk) 15:26, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: In fact, you removed attributions. The city's website is not "the city". Neither it is a scholary source, it is a WP:SPS. Skäpperöd (talk) 18:15, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Ok, I attributed the claims, but will look for more sources 

message: This article does not meet B-class criteria, due to missing key sections (ex. economy) and insufficient inline referencing (there are entire sections unreferenced). --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk  16:24, 15 July 2011 (UTC)

message: The town has certainly improved since last visiting there over twenty years ago. It is unfortunate to say the least the town stood still in time for so many decades when the new border was forced even further westwards and the communists took over and the locals then ethnically cleansed for being German speakers.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.170.209.193 (talk) 21:15, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Waldenburg 

message: There is no grammatical or expository reason to italicize former German names of now-Polish, -Lithuanian or -Russian localities in the areas transferred under border changes promulgated at the Potsdam Conference. In English, italics usually denote foreign (non-English) words for things or concepts, but not place names. In German times, Wałbrzych was officially Waldenburg, not Waldenburg, and the German name should not be italicized. Sca (talk) 14:15, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
