I see you fixed the problem, thanks. I put a warning on the vandal's talk page and refactored your above comment because there is no reason to keep a record of the vandalism. Johnuniq (talk) 02:10, 18 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

He was leader of the Hussites.

No, he wasn’t. The Hussite wars have already ended (1434) when he started to be politically relevant (most likely 1448 or a bit earlier, but not much) and the term “Hussites” was irrelevant afterwards. If the term “Hussites” means anything, than it was a coalition of various anti-Catholic groups in a coalition, but this coalition fall apart shortly after the end of the Hussite wars. George of Poděbrady was actually more a leader trying to hold together ALL various parties in the Czech kingdom (including Catholics for example) which however were more or less fighting one with another.

Yes, he was leader of Hussites. Wars ended with victory of moderate Hussites and they formed political and military group, united in one ultraquist Church.--Yopie (talk) 14:04, 13 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

V pořádku, češští právníci musej bejt hádaví a trvat na svém (jsa jedním z nich, vím o čem mluvím). Já bych řekl, že tohle je Váš názor a ne NPOV, ale nechám to bejt. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ceplm (talkcontribs) 14:23, 13 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Name of the article[edit]

According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Article_titles#Foreign_names_and_anglicization non-translated names should be used. Therefore, IMHO, this article should be renamed to “Jiří z Poděbrad” (with a redirect from George of Podebrady) Ceplm (talk) 11:37, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
