It was said that are 300 000 Serbs had gone in 1995. That is not correct number. Much less- 100 000. Jasenovac wasn't 3rd camp in WW2. The number of victoms was glorified by Serbs. You should check better that numbers. |

I am looking at things that I know intimately to try and gauge the worth of this enciklopedia. Gathering from this page about Croatia I must say that if the rest of it is like this, then it's on the verge of useless crap written by people who's only purpose is to further their POV... full of crap...
- Then why don't you step forward and list the points which who think are POV, so we can discuss them? Or change them directly if you are sure it will be more neutral afterwards. This site lives by constructive criticism, not from complaining. -- andy 11:32, 14 Aug 2003 (UTC)
It was said that are 300 000 Serbs had gone in 1995. That is not correct number. Much less- 100 000. Jasenovac wasn't 3rd camp in WW2. The number of victoms was glorified by Serbs. You should check better that numbers.
It was said a comunist state which is not true, It was a socialistic state!
Dubravko, currently the language is called Serbo-Croatian in Wikipedia. Notice that the official language was listed as Croatian - please see the pages on Serbo-Croatian, Serbian, Croatian and Bosnian. If you have problems with this, please discuss it on Talk:Serbo-Croatian language before changing all references to local names in Croatia from Serbo-Croatian to Croatian.

I fixed the link which now points to correct page Croatian_language.
As said, this is not about the link, it's rather about consistency within this encyclopaedia - the language in the sense of a set of grammatical rules and words is called Serbo-Croatian (in wikipedia and throughout universities and literature in the world), whereas written standards and official languages are called Serbian, Croatian, Bosnian etc.
It's an issue that has nothing to do with Croatia per se, so if you have problems with this defacto policy, please discuss it on Talk:Serbo-Croatian language before changing it again. Zocky 13:01 27 May 2003 (UTC)
Speaking of consistency, please check out what is stated under Croatian language about Serbo-Croatian language.
- Thanks for pointing that out. Please people, let's not stoop to the low levels of Greek geeks vandalizing every article on anything Macedonian. This is an encyclopaedia, not a third-rate political tabloid. Zocky 13:14 27 May 2003 (UTC)
An Zocky:
Was soll dieser Schwachsinn über Griechenland sein ?

Someone anonymous seems to insist that Croatia is not located on the Balkan. Can anyone dig out any proof for this claim, or other way round proof to convice the anonymous? -- andy 13:31, 8 Aug 2003 (UTC)
