chauvinists. Ironically it has also been used by one of the previous nominators as well, who claims herself to be
Hungarian. Unfortunately nothing could be further from truth. It's true that anti-Hungarian sentiment is not perceived by people (even Hungarians) who don't live in areas where Hungarians constitute a minority or don't have such friends. But I've been born and raised in Bratislava (one of the very few people who can call themselves to be native inhabitants of the city BTW). A mere century ago this city used to be one of the most tolerant cities not only throughout Austria-Hungary but the rest of Europe as well. This was evidenced by the fact that the neologue synagogue of the city was built right next to the coronation cathedral of St. Martin. In the past century however it has been transformed into a city of intolerance. The synagogue has been destroyed by the Communists (along with a significant portion of the historical center as well), the statue of Maria Theresa has been toppled, various buildings were disfigured (e.g. the railway station) and the surrounding villages have been razed to the ground to give place for the "new" and "modern" tenement complexes which are unthinkably ugly and pose an eyesore up to this day. This has also brought in people from all over the country who had no tolerance for Hungarians or anything else for that matter (let alone city aesthetics/architecture). This means that Bratislava became a city filled with bitter and ill-willed people who don't mind kicking into Hungarians either. I've experienced this myself numerous times when I was verbally harassed by such "immigrants" and even elderly. Also, if any of you would bother reading

there are no
Hungarian signs in the city at all (except for inscriptions on some of the fountains which haven't been removed during their "renovations")? Hint: no, it's NOT for the fact that there are no Hungarian tourists in the city. Since Bratislava (under the aliases "Pressburg/Preßburg/Pozsony/Posony") was the capital of Hungary for centuries, it is of major historical significance for Hungarians (especially for the fact that coronations took place there as well). The lack of Hungarian signs in the "Slovak capital" in fact is also one of the clues which hint to the fact that strong anti-Hungarian sentiments are present in Slovakia up to this day. I've also been to Transylvania where the situation seems to be pretty much the same. So once again, the article should stay. --

30% of an article in a single edit and expected that the article would be deleted just because of the current content changed. Of course it was kept because his deletion had no effect on the underlying question of the topic's notability. Regardless I may just edit this article later, but not because "so it can be kept". Notability of the topic is why it should be kept, not because I personally edit it to have good content. Of course the article content is not satisfactory now. Ironically, for example it was edited by a well known anti-Hungarian banned user
995:- you can't just dump a collection of referenced facts and hope an article magically will emerge. Instead, we need to reflect what reliable sources (and in this type of article, scholarly sources would be best) have written, otherwise we sink into the POV ethnicity driven problems we've seen before. Given the structure imposed by the parent article, I expect that this section could grow, and ultimate break out into its own article. Until then, a redirect is preferable.
426:- I'm sorry, but I have to call the nominator a cynical hypocrite. He's arguing for removal with arguments that can be attributed to the fact that the article has been nominated for deletion twice (once even successfully). Since all the old content has been removed, the article had to be started from scratch again. This alone however shouldn't warrant its removal, only indicate that further expansion is neecessary.
