It needs it. I am fixing one thing, but the rest should be obvious.--Cerejota (talk) 06:15, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

Info regarding ethnicity
The info regarding ethnicity is a major aspect of the case and mentioned in almost all sources, be it in Hungarian or Romanian. Thus, the article would not win anything if this fact was withheld. Timur lenk (talk) 09:15, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

Roma ethincisty
Roma ethincisty is relevant in this case. 89.33.128.101 (talk) 18:39, 9 February 2009 (UTC)


 * No opinion on that, but I do want to note that at this stage it is quite wrong to describe it as "murder". It is a death or homicide until someone has been found guilty of murder.  Cheers,  This flag once was red propagandadeeds 18:41, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Additionally, one set of edits does appear to be better than the other: "Marian Cozma began his handball career with HC Dinamo Bucharest" makes sense; "Marian Cozma was launched in the handball by HC Dinamo Bucharest" does not. The edits continue in a similar vein - one set making sense, the other less so (i.e. it isn't just that one sentence that's good/bad).

Caught in Austria
german wikipedia cites a source that states the assailant was caught on an austrian motorway.--Tresckow (talk) 23:27, 9 February 2009 (UTC)

ROMA - misleading name used only by far-left extremists...
roma means human on the lovari language of gypsies.

so if someone is saying there r romas and non-romas then he/she is telling that non-gypsies arent humans...and that's naziism...

this roma thingy is just a new term used by always overreacting far-left hungarian extremists called free democrats or liberals. they always victimize the gypsy criminals, and u r called a racist if u tell that a special criminal is gypsy.

an american warrant with color, ethnicity or origin mentioned is unimaginable here. how should the police distinguise the suspects? t a week ago a county police chief was almost fired when he was talking about gypsycrime statistics. only multiparty massdemonstrations helped him save his position and force the minister of interior the the prime minister to change their minds. a mad journalist called Dési working for the extremist ex-bolshevik newspaper Népszava (Voice of the people) called this incident a racist big coalition and stigmatized more than 91% of Hungarians as a racist...

gypsies are gypsies (or as we call them here - cigányok. even their self-governing organization is called 'cigány(gypsy) önkormányzat'. the leader of a gypsy bigband is called a cigányprímás, not romaprímás.

lets call the things on their names... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.133.162.245 (talk) 02:12, 10 February 2009 (UTC)


 * The article should use the terma used in the references. I'm not sure I agree that "roma" in common English is racist (or Nazi, or fascist) - but regardless we should be quoting the references, not applying our own points of view.

Your reasoning makes no sense. Did you know that the original meaning of magyar (the Hungarian word for 'Hungarian') is also widely believed to be 'man'? Does that make magyar a "nazi" term by your definition?

Additionally, the English word gypsy does not necessarily designate someone of Romani ethnicity, so using Roma in the article would actually be more accurate. KovacsUr (talk) 10:51, 10 February 2009 (UTC)
