Greek Language is not Official in Albania[edit]

Because Greek language is not recognized as an official language in the Republic of Albania, I have removed the greek translation of the name of 'Permet'. --Arbër T  ? 10:02, 16 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I notice a reversion of my previous edit, where I removed the Greek translation of the name of the city. There is a Greek Wikipedia where every Greek can party. In the English Wikipedia, however, the English name must be used and, in absence, the Albanian name is to be used. Why do you have to translate the Albanian name into Greek? The argument that "A Convention says so" is not acceptable by Wikipedia standards.--Arbër T  ? 08:14, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I didn;t translate the name of Tirana or Kruja.Whereever living Greeks or Albanians or Serbes or Japanese have the rigth to call the place in their languaage.You have to underastand this and not talking with your other Albanian friends about deleting the Greek names from the villages and towns of greek minority on Albania.Kuptove apo jo??Knonis (talk) 08:21, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, they have the right to use any language, but an encyclopedia article must contain only the truth, based on facts. If you visit Permet, you will see no road signs in other languages but in Albanian. I believe that Wikipedia does not express the concerns of minorities.--Arbër T  ? 08:23, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Question[edit]

Has anybody observed that this article looks more like a tour operator's leaflet or is it just me?--Giorgos Tzimas (talk) 09:39, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well... not anymore, apparently--Giorgos Tzimas (talk) 13:36, 17 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
