message: "The Teutonic Knights founded an Ordensburg castle"
I found this strange expression also in another article. Probably the author didn't think about the meaning of the word 'Ordensburg'. The expression 'Ordensburg castle' should be interpreted as "castle of the Ordensburg". That leaves the question: What is the 'Ordensburg'. Considering the context it should be an organization. But the organization is the 'Knights of the Teutonic Order', maybe shortend to 'Order'. And 'Ordensburg' was never the name of an organization, it simply is a "Burg des Ordens", which translates to "castle of the Order", or simply 'Order's castle'. => 'Ordensburg castle' = 'Order's castle castle'. I would say, that's 1 castle too much. Truchses (talk) 16:47, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Kwidzyń -- town name 

message: This edit  (along with several others) uses primary sources, which may be biased, for potentially controversial information. This violates the Wikipedia policy WP:PRIMARY.
The same edit uses a source, Handbuch der historischen Stätten, edited by the Nazi author Erich Weise and with contributions from other authors from Nazi Germany. Per WP:RS this is not a reliable source and should not be used in this or other articles.
Furthermore it looks like an effort is being made to obfuscate the nature of this source, by omitting the fact that Weise was the editor and instead only listing a few of the authors (like Kurt Forstreuter, another Nazi). On top of that the ISBN number of the book is being omitted. Note that previously the same editor included this information in his previous edits, but when concerns were raised about the nature of this source and Erich Weise, began omitting it. This suggests strongly that the editor in question is fully aware that this is a problematic source and is making bad faithed attempts to hide it.
Please do not restore this info without providing modern, reliable, secondary sources.Volunteer Marek 13:42, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

message: By removing my contribution all of a sudden without any consideration, volunteer Marek demonstrates he doesn't want to discuss about the history of the town in this lemma, doesn't even want to implement a selection of objective improvements in a sometimes shabby text. Do we have to understand this as the new morale of Polish historians: a new war in which national Polish presence has to be saveguarded in the course of times, even if the historical facts does not support this Polishness?
Well, I am not a German at all, but a historian with a scientific consciousness, and I regret that this consciousness is not as important as a national stance. Among Wikipedians, in Wikipedy, in 2018, in Europe.

thread_title:  Polonizing History 

message: The contribution of 84.86.5.217|needs no radical removal but can still be more clear. The existing text does certainly needs to be improved, because it does not make a difference between the Marienwerder district before and after 1919. The Polish speaking part of this district was allocated to Poland in 1919. The German spaking part had to conform its choice for Germany in a plebiscite. The majority of the Poles needed no participation in this plebiscite because of their immediate incorporation in the Polish state in 1919.
