Stumbling blocks

[edit]

I"ve changed "stumbling block" to "memorial block" because in English, "stumbling block" has a negative connotation of "something bad or aggravating that gets in the way of the completion of a plan". (For example, qualifying for a mortgage is a stumbling block to buying an apartment.) I've also never heard "stumbling block" used in any other way than metaphorically - the original meaning was "a rotting tree trunk that trips up hikers", but that hasn't been used for centuries. A block set into a sidewalk in memory of someone would normally be called a memorial stone; memorial block would be less common but understood. --NellieBly (talk) 19:33, 8 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Who can help

[edit]

1. Where are all my corrected new dates in the infoboxes of 01.01.2015 at all Municipalities on this site because there are shown the date 1 January 2014? Thanks and regards -- Sweepy (talk) 11:47, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

2. Why will not be shown at all above towns the dates of Gemeinderatanzahl, Gemeinderat and Wahljahr, although this dates are to fill. That's work is unnecessary and takes time...Regards -- Sweepy (talk) 19:17, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
