thread_title: For what its worth

message: Guys, I've added some direct quotes from PM Kostunica and PM Ceku on their positions on Kosovo future status.  I don't know if these are the best quotes -- if anyone has better, feel free to edit/change what I did.  It's preferable for use to use direct quotes from the parties instead of trying to characterize their positions for them.  Envoy202 14:08, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

message: Albanians excluded?
But they've thrown away their documents since the beginning of 1990, they're not registered voters. They thus boycotted everything from the 1990 election till today - there were even attempts to include them in the referendum, but they came too late though. --PaxEquilibrium 20:08, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It soureced, but that is not what the source provided says  "ethnic Albanians in Kosovo, which has been under UN control since 1999, ignored the poll." I'm updating the article to source provided. // laughing man 17:33, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Removal 

message: Serbia and anti-Western countries claim that because UN SCR 1244 refers to the “territorial integrity” of Yugoslavia, Kosovo cannot declare independence without a new security council resolution. However, because UN 1244 Resolution's reference to “territorial integrity” is mentioned in the preamble and is thus not legally binding, and because nothing else in UN SCR 1244 says Kosovo can’t declare independence, Kosovo can declare independence without a new security council resolution. Thust far, Resolution 1244 has never prevented Kosovo from becoming internationally supervised country with limited independence. Therefore, Republic of Kosovo is not part of Serbia and will never be part of Serbia. 24.82.181.243 (talk) 05:28, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Resolution 1244  is a basis for independence 

message: They say one of the Wikipedia principles is "be bold!" :-)
When I read this article it sounded like the "Kosovo status process" was still something that was alive, that the status of Kosovo was still undetermined. In my opinion that is not a valid picture of reality.
In my opinion (and I don't think I'm alone), Kosovo independence is a done deal. There is no going back. Nothing short of WW III will change that, and Russia is not that dumb.
If someone has more time on their hands than I do, may I suggest going through the rest of the article and changing various discussions from present tense to past tense. Thanks. --RenniePet (talk) 13:39, 5 April 2008 (UTC)

message: A 3rd round of negotiations between Serbia and the Kosovar Albanians is about to begin and there's no update even on the events leading up to this?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.110.245.115 (talk) 23:30, 27 September 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  New round of negotiations 

message: The EU as a body does recognize Kosovo. Currently only Romania, Greece, Slovakia and Spain (all for political reasons) do not recognize Kosovo but all have given indication that they will very soon recognize it. Russia wants to recognize and Serbia is trying to find a way of doing so without embarrassing itself. Cognoscerapo (talk) 12:12, 22 October 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Only sovereign entities (states generally, and one or two oddballs like the SMOM, though this is not universally accepted) have the capacity to recognize states. See diplomatic recognition. Neither EU nor UN can recognize Kosovo, or any other state for that matter.—Emil J. 13:21, 22 October 2013 (UTC)
