I would find it easier to believe that Wik and I are on the same side, if I
could edit down the bloated [[1920 in Germany]] page without reverts from
him and 172, with no use at all of the Talk page.  Why defend blah windbag
stuff like

''When, therefore, Germans came to survey the course of their history
between the first partition of Poland, in 1772, and the Treaty of
Versailles, they could not fail to feel singularly dissatisfied with the
results which had been achieved. ''

???

Like it says beneath the box, stuff posted to WP is subject to being edited;
especially 50K articles full of time-expired prose style.
