map should be in English, please. Citations are not clear. Is it all from Davies, or just parts? then is the rest from your other source? If so, please cite appropriately Auntieruth55 (talk) 20:19, 16 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding the map that it should be English in your opinion? it seems you'd need to get back to Joachim von Ribbentrop on that one, I have no idea why didn't they, Ribbentrop and Stalin add a map in English to their Treaty. And I can't tell what's wrong with citations in the article. Currently there is one citation and one reference added to the article. In case anything is unclear about it, please see Wikipedia:Citing sources FFI. Thanks!--Termer (talk) 04:11, 17 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

WikiProject Latvia

Just curious. What is the connection to Latvia? ^Talk/♥фĩłдωəß♥\^Work 22:12, 20 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Seems like the article needs updating or things need to be spelled out much more clearly. The treaty ended for example the 700 years of Baltic German presence in Latvia etc.--Termer (talk) 04:03, 29 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

For some reason, a previous editor only mentions Lithuania, but Latvia and Estonia were also placed into the Soviet sphere of influence. 155.213.224.59 (talk) 13:00, 28 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@Termer and Philaweb: removed WP Estonia, Latvia--Estopedist1 (talk) 12:59, 10 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Wikiprojects are not necessarily added or removed beucase they are mentioned/referred, there are many other examples fir this. In case of any removals, I'd consult the Wikiprojets first if they agree on losing interest...(KIENGIR (talk) 15:52, 11 March 2020 (UTC))[reply]

Current border?

Is this line of demarcation the current border? At least in general terms it appears to be. (After WW2, the Soviets took part of Poland and gave it to the Ukraine, recompensing Poland with part of Germany.) 155.213.224.59 (talk) 13:01, 28 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Name

This article is under the German–Soviet Frontier Treaty the lead opens with German–Soviet Boundary and Friendship Treaty, while the infobox uses the Hitler–Stalin Pact name. This is confusing. Wikisource has http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/German-Soviet_Boundary_and_Friendship_Treaty_28_September_1939 as well. Which name is the best? _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 14:59, 21 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support. See Avalon. This is a return to the original title, from which the page was never justifiably moved. Srnec (talk) 19:06, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
