Hi! Thanks for everything you've done on the "Left Party" page. One question: why did you remove the reference to the KPD in the list of predecessor parties? My intention in adding it was not to be POV: but legally, the Left Party is a successor of the KPD as it was reestablished in the Soviet Occupation Zone of Germany in 1945 and later merged with the east-SPD to form the SED. So there's legal continuity there, and even the post-communist members of the party claim at least a sentimental connection with the Weimar Republic KPD: thus, their participation in the annual "Luxemburg-Liebknecht" demonstrations in Berlin every January, the fact that their national headquarters is the original KPD headquarters (Karl Liebknecht Haus) in Berlin, etc.

I'm not challenging this because I don't think it's an important enough a factoid for the reader, but just curious.

Thanks again for your contributions to the page. --langohio 16:44, 30 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Well, it was nominally a merger of equals in 1946, so the SED was as much successor of the KPD as it was successor of the SPD. And both applies only to eastern Germany, as both the KPD and SPD continued to exist separately in western Germany after 1946. Rivarez 17:18, 30 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox

You need to settle down and stop edit warring. Tell me what you do not like about infoboxes? -- Netoholic @ 23:33, 20 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

You need to settle down and stop edit warring. I have nothing against infoboxes per se. I have something against those infoboxes that provide no new information and just repeat what's already in the article text. Rivarez 00:20, 21 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

3RR

You have been blocked for 24 hours for a 3RR violation on Sealand as per the reporting page. Sasquatcht|c 22:57, 27 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Clearly you do not appreciate the 3RR. Some discussion at Talk:Sealand would be nice, by the way. 24ip | lolol 01:56, 29 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
I appreciate it, so long as it is equally applied. But O^O was not blocked for his violation, so it seems to be a dead letter. Admins think they don't have to enforce the rule "if they don't feel like it". Rivarez 02:24, 29 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Game over, Wik

So nice seeing you again. Shame it couldn't last. --Gene_poole 05:18, 30 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
