No Nazi names, please

Please stop pushing the [[Nazi] names of the Polish cities into the English language articles. Poland was occupied by Germany, and 20% of the Poles lost their lives, just because they didn't want to be Germans and to use the German city names. The Nazi names are very offensive, similar to panting Nazi swastika on Jewish graves. I hope you will understand this. Thank you. PolishPoliticians 23:21, 21 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Don't be ridiculous. The names that were used in English must be noted. Your equation of "German" with "Nazi" seems fundamentally racist and not to be taken seriously. Note also I hope you will stop referring to others as Nazis in talk pages or especially edit summaries, as per the Wikipedia:No personal attacks policy - David Gerard 23:24, 21 Jul 2004 (UTC)
