Talk:History of Czechoslovakia

message: This article is part of the History of Czechoslovakia series.
  Czechoslovak Republic (1918-1939)
  Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia
  German-occupied Slovakia
  The Third Republic of Czechoslovakia
  Communist Czechoslovakia
  Fall of Communist Czechoslovakia
I propose the above breakdown. "The WWII Slovak Republic" just doesn't sound right. "Slovak Republic (1939-1945)"?
I also propose to remove the pre-1918 history, and place them elsewhere (Slovakia/Czech Republic series, Austria-Hungary article, etc). Comments or suggestions? --Jiang 07:45, 9 Jan 2004 (UTC)

message: I'm preparing an article on the concept of Western Betrayal User:Halibutt/Western betrayal. I need someone to drop in and add facts about the Munich conference and the overall fealing it gave to the Czechoslovak population. Any volunteers? Or did Czechoslovakia feel betrayed by the West and the USSR at all?Halibutt 09:48, 5 Apr 2004 (UTC)

message: Whatever your interpretation of the image, it doesn't make sense to have two copies 1. :Image:Anschlusstears.gif and 2. :Image:Prague 1939 tragic greeting.jpg? Does anyone have a preference, the darker or the lighter? I think I prefer #1, the darker of the two. Please post your comments at Talk:German_occupation_of_Czechoslovakia#Photo:_Tears_of_joy.2C_tears_of_sadness NOT here. - TheMightyQuill 03:57, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Why is "liberated", referring to the red army move from 21.9.1944, in quotes while the same word later in the same sentence referring to the allied army, is not? If there is a rational explanation then it would be good to be put in, otherwise it looks like a personal slant.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.152.152.92 (talk) 09:56, 18 December 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Minor nitpicks 

message: Yopie misreads the wp:Undue rule. It states, "Giving due weight and avoiding giving undue weight means that articles should not give minority views as much of, or as detailed, a description as more widely held views." That is, the views of a tiny or fringe minority should not be given disproportionate weight. In the Cold War context the views of the US government and the head of the CIA are indeed a major viewpoint and all the scholars of whatever politics consider the CIA to be one of the most important Cold War agencies. Here we are talking about the analysis made by Dulles, the long-term head of the agency at the height of his power (his brother was then the US Secretary of State).  Does Yopie really consider the CIA as a "tiny or fringe minority" ???? He has used the UNDUE tag repeatedly (in History of Czechoslovakia and Czechoslovakia, and called the info "trivia."  No other editor supports his deletions of sourced material.  In this case the importance of Dulles position was validated and put into context by coverage in a recent scholarly book published by a university press.  Yopie has failed to indicate the reasons he thinks the CIA position is a fringe  position.  The risk is that Yopie is engaging in an edit war expressing his private POV and tries to cover up embarrassing information he does not want Wikipedia readers to learn about. We certainly hope that is not the case but Yopie has merely reverted sourced text over and over again with no explanation for his strange actions. Rjensen (talk) 16:12, 12 April 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Misreading the rules on "undue weight" 

message: It is POV and highly offensive to say the Soviets "liberated" Czechoslovakia, as the USSR annexed the country after World War II. (ByronJenner (talk) 09:08, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: there was never a Soviet "annexation."  The Communists took control several years AFTER 1945.  Scholars use the term "liberation" for 1945. See   Rjensen (talk) 09:38, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: After World War II Czechoslovakia became part of the Soviet sphere, as Stalin had always intended before 1939. "Liberation" is highly offensive and should only be used with regard to the western invasion. (ByronJenner (talk) 10:11, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Not liberated 

message: As Stalin annexed all of Czechoslovakia after World War II by financing and arming a Communist coup, the term "liberated" should be removed from the article. The History of Poland article on this site does not say that Poland was "liberated" by Stalin. (ByronJenner (talk) 15:04, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: the coup was 1948, 3 years after what RS call liberation. Annexation happened to the Baltic countries.  Rjensen (talk) 19:44, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Since the History of Poland article does not use the term "liberation", it should not be used in regard to Czechoslovakia either. The Soviets invaded Czechoslovakia, Poland and the Baltic States. (ByronJenner (talk) 21:13, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
