thread_title:  Succession of states 

message: Northern East Prussia (plus other nearby areas) became part of Germany in 1871, when the country of Germany was born.  There was a German university in the largest city, and a famous German philosopher who was from that area. Immanuel Kant was born in 1724 in that city.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.14.243.123 (talk) 07:48, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

message: Hi everyone,
the section "Reunified Berlin from an urban planning perspective" is rather unrelated to this larger field of the German reunification. It shouldn't have a place in this article, while of course it can be linked. Should it get an own article, or integrated into something like Urban planning in Berlin (compare Urban planning in Singapore)? Cheers Horst-schlaemma (talk) 12:15, 4 March 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Berlin urban planning: Own article or section elsewhere? 

message: The following is ambiguous:
A poll of four countries in January 1990 found that a majority of surveyed Americans and French supported reunification, while British and Poles were more divided. 69% of Poles and 50% of French and British stated that they worried about a reunified Germany becoming "the dominant power in Europe".
"A majority of Americans and French" and "50% of French and British" surely contradict oneanother? -- Fursday 00:03, 3 October 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't really see the contradiction. Some French people supported re-unification but were worried. --Boson (talk) 10:46, 3 October 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Foreign support and opposition — ambiguous paragraph. 

message: I don´t why some guy named Dennis has deleted the following:
Ireland´s Taoiseach, Charles Haughey supported German Reunification and he took advantage of Ireland´s presidency of the European Economic Community by calling for an extraordinary European summit for Dublin in April 1990 to calm fears held by fellow members of the EEC. (See here and here and here and here) Haughey saw similarities between Ireland and Germany and cited during a debate in the Dáil "I have expressed a personal view that coming as we do from a country which is also divided many of would have sympathy with any wish of the people of the two German States for unification".(see here)
This  seems to be an important subject, the article as it is seems to indicate no-one in Europe supported German Unification when in fact there were and since Ireland held the Presidency of the EEC, then all the more reason why it should be there. I have even provided the relevant documents supporting it, which are from valid sources, such as the EU and included a pdf as seen here

message: Under Process of reunification --> international effects paragraph two, the article mentions "Article 23 was rewritten and it can still be understood as an invitation to others (e.g. Austria) to join,". Considering that Article 23 is now the 'Europa-Artikel' and that I can find no reference for this piece of information, how can this be true? Hentheden (talk) 15:25, 7 March 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  'invitation to Austria to join' 

message: Although the name of the event in German is interesting, as this is an encyclopaedia in English it would be more pertinent to discuss the usage in English both during the process and common usage today. By this I mean did the English language press or diplomats from the English speaking countries ever call it unification rather than unification and if so who decided what.  -- PBS (talk) 08:37, 10 May 2017 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: Hi all, I intend to add some information to the "Aftermath" section of the article, specifically under "Views and Life Satisfaction." I came across the paper, "The Economic Impact of Social Ties: Evidence from German Reunification," by Konrad B. Burchardi and Tarek A. Hassan and I think their information regarding economic outcomes in Germany post-reunification would help further contextualize the importance of the event. Presently, the section discusses survey results about whether Germans viewed the reunification as positive or negative, and I think that adding information about how people benefitted economically would help emphasize the positive impact of the event. Specifically, I would include Burchardi and Hassan's finding that households and entrepreneurs with social ties to Eastern Germany saw significant increases in their incomes after reunification as compared to those without such connections. All in all, I'll be adding about 200 or so words, likely around 5-10 sentences. If anyone would like to discuss these potential changes, feel free to let me know on this talk page or on my talk page.

thread_title:  Proposed additions to Aftermath section 

message: Remarkable, isn´t it, how the lede was buried.  Has this been added and deleted in the past, or was I the first to contribute this a few minutes ago?  
The West German government of Konrad Adenauer rejected proposals following the 1952 Stalin note to reunify under terms of neutrality.  The government instead pursued a policy of West German rearmament, while ending the process of denazification and declaring an amnesty.  This lead to the 1952 establishment of the European Defense Community, and West Germany joined NATO in 1955.

replies: text: I suspect that the intended wording was along the lines of "...a full peace treaty concluding World War II for Germany was planned, including the exact delimitation of Germany's post-war boundary,...".  Maabonnet (talk) 19:56, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
thread_title:  What is meant? 

message: Under Effects > International Effects, it is stated "The practical result of that model is that the now-expanded Federal Republic of Germany inherited the old West Germany's seats at the UN, NATO, the European Communities, and other international organizations." 
However, prior in the article, it is stressed that the Federal Republic of Germany is the same legal personality as West Germany was from its formation, and that "German Reunification" was the accession of East Germany as several states to the existing Federal Republic of Germany. The wording choice of "inherited the old West Germany's seats" heavily implies a successor state, such as the Russian Federation succeeding the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. 
I suggest that the wording here and overall tone of this section be brought more in line with the legal principles of German reunification. Maabonnet (talk) 19:55, 3 March 2023 (UTC)

message: There remain considerable differences between social leanings of people in the former East and West Germanies. A discussion of these differences and others may be warranted in this section.
