Diacritics

That's interesting about Wikipedian diacritics warring. Does it only concern Vietnamese? Ro Thorpe 18:42, 12 November 2013 (UTC)

No, the focus of the dispute is on the names of tennis and hockey players from Eastern Europe. I wrote only a few posts on this subject, but they were apparently enough to attract attention. After the GoodDay decision, one pro-diacritics editor suddenly started taking an interest in Vietnam. The Vietnam project is not a very active one. It was basically my little pond up to that point. My banning has triggered a chain reaction with hundreds of articles moving, both Vietnamese and otherwise. Peter Kauffner 21:42, 12 November 2013 (UTC)
