Frýdlant is moravian town, it's not part of Cieszyn Silesia. Please, repair it. --Daniel Baránek (talk) 17:29, 1 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Error in the legend of the map[edit]

There is an error in the left (English) part of the legend explanation. The red line is the border not from 28.07.1928, but from 28.07.1920 until 31.10.1938. The Polish description seems to be correct. --BurghardRichter (talk) 16:27, 15 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Mix321: , @BurghardRichter: I have made and uploaded a new improved version. D T G (talk) 21:29, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you! But now this line and several other lines are written in such a small style that they can hardly be read. It would be better if all the lines of the legend on both sides were in a uniform style.
Thank you also for including the neighbouring part of Germany in purple colour. --BurghardRichter (talk) 21:56, 17 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@BurghardRichter: I reworked the legend. I think adding Germany and railways was important to show the strategical significance of Bogumin/Oderberg which was the most important railway junction in the conflict with connections to Vienna, Warsaw, Berlin, Vienna, Kaschau, Lemberg.

Thanks again for your work! I agree that especially the addition of the railways is a significant improvement of the map.
My only criticism is: The border of the German part (until 1945) of Upper Silesia should not be marked by a red line. According to the legend, the red line is the border between Poland and Czechoslovakia from 1920 until 1938 and since 1945. But this is not true for the border of the ancient German territory. I suggest to simply omit the coloured marking of this border. The topic of this map is only the changing borders between Poland and Czechoslovaka. It is therefore sufficient that Germany is marked by (purple) surface colour; there is no need to emphasize additionally its border to Poland and Chechosovakia by a coloured line. --BurghardRichter (talk) 12:56, 19 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@BurghardRichter: I removed that border. I also added the maximal extent of the Czechoslovakian offensive at the end of the Polish-Czechoslovak war of the 1919. They reached the Vistula river and for the rest of the talks during the peace conferences always and doggedly opted for the border on the Vistula if not on the Biala river. I also updated another Mix321's map of the planned plebiscite in Cieszyn Silesia, Orava and Zips: File:Plebiscyt+Cieszy+Spisz+Orawa.PNG - I was thinking about coloring Upper Silesia differently like on that map.

Se dan datos contradictorios. En el texto en inglés aparece la fecha 28 de agosto de 1920, y en el polaco 28 de julio de 1920. La decisión de la Conferencia de Spa fue tomada el 28 de julio de 1920. --Jacinto-Miróbriga (talk) 11:23, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
The English description should be indeed corrected to 28 July 1920, in line with the Polish description.-Darwinek (talk) 21:09, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
