Location edit war #2

I also do understand that Serbia is not happy about Kosovo being independent country and that location changes from Kosovo to Republic of Kosovo on many wiki-pages angers many here. However, the changes I have made concern english Monastery page and most of native english speakers come from countries who recognized Republic of Kosovo as sovereign country. That is very misleading and confusing, as I have been informed on several occasions.

All you have done is add the controversial "Republic of" before "Kosovo" with each of your edits. That term is confined to references wheree the republic's infrastructure is the intended target, for anything else, a plain and simple mention of Kosovo suffices.

"Kosovo" leads to english Kosovo-REGION page, whereas "Republic of Kosovo" leads to english Kosovo-STATE (Republic of) page. With all due respect, when pointing out the location, if known, countries are preferred over regions - and Kosovo is, you like it or not, recognized by most countries with native english speakers.

Furthermore, "Republic" is not a controversial term per se. It is called "Republic of Serbia" as well. It is all about the point of view, either you recognize Kosovo as a Republic or you don´t. I repeat, countries with most native english speakers DO recognize Kosovo as a country. For other countries and languages, there are pages in their respective languages.

Location edit war

I understand that there is a dispute over the status of Kosovo. However, UNESCO still lists Serbia as the state party of the monastery. Unless and until they update their records, changing the infobox is misrepresenting the source. Chris ^{(complaints)•(contribs)} 01:52, 18 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
