Camel gets his nose in the tent! I think here on Wikipedia this sort of treatment should not be routine, but used only in instances where there are two distinct viewpoints that have proven difficult to resolve. This dispute has gone on for a year or more.

I would really like to see that article divided into two articles, one called Danzig, one Gdansk, with the Danzig article about the long German heritage, the article Gdansk about the present Polish city with historical emphasis on Polish matters. I know this is Wikinfo philosopy but why can't we try it out here in this one case?
Isn't that just going to wedge the door open for every disputed article to end up with multiple versions?
