message: This page says of the Pig-Footed Bandicoot: "1 extant species", but the PFB article says "Extinct - 1950's".

Talk:Partitions of Germany

message: The last image (final division) is incorrect. The western areas of today's Poland (former Silesia and Pomerania) must be colored yellow as well. Furthermore, if East Prussia includes the Memel area (as is the case on that map), other areas Germany gained in 1938/39 (e.g. the Sudetenland) should be colored as well. --Langec 20:49, 13 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Last image not correct 

message: There was certainly no need for Partitions of Germany, because Partition of Germany redirects to History of Germany since 1945, so this one should too.  Furthermore, it was an incomplete, stub article with no information not presented in the History of Germany since 1945.  Perhaps at a later date, there will be enough information to have an article based on the partition process.  But even then, the article would more likely merit the title "Partition of Germany," not "Partitions of Germany."  Oscabat 04:06, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
