Talk:1921 Upper Silesia plebiscite

message: I've deleted the maps for separate reasons. The map showing Poland and Baltic state had nothing to do with political reality of these times, and would give wrong impressions to anyone viewing it (Kowno region never belonged to Poland during this period, for example). It had little to do with the topic of this wiki page, Upper Silesia was barely visible there.
the second map is new one, but is clearly based on censuses made by Austria-Hungary, Prussia and Austria. First, while one could accept austrian and prussian census as only slightly modified, that is not the case with russian one, and majorly polish territory stretched much further east. Secondly, it is too general (only polish majority areas according to census), and doesn't bring anything to knowledge about Upper Silesia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.205.177.180 (talk • contribs) 21:46, 14 September 2008

"The Polish side alleged, that German majority in the cities was achieved artificially by the votes of Silesian emigrants brought in from western Germany only to vote for the plebiscite. Without their presence, the Polish representatives claimed, the vote count would have been almost 1:1. The right to take part in the plebiscite for all people born in the region was however the condition on which all parties had agreed upon before the plebiscite."
That whole paragraph is unclear. Like "somebody used to say..." But what does it say? What are the sources?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.22.61.244 (talk) 21:11, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

message: Needs wikifying after the old lead was rewritten by a new editor; sources and ilinks were removed. The new editor claimed to be editing for NPOV, but AGFing him, his text needs revision, if only to ensure no info was lost, and ilinks are readded. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| talk  23:11, 15 December 2009 (UTC)

message: The map shows, correctly, that the southern half of Ratibor county became part of Czechoslovakia. There is no mention of this in the article. If I can find how it came about, I shall add a mention of this to the article. Maproom (talk) 16:34, 19 April 2012 (UTC)
