As far as I know zadar (at the time Zara) was part of Dalmatia county in the austrian part of the Austro-Hungaric empire, while Croatia was a separate region in the hungarian part. Therefore I am a bit concerned wheter this statement is correct: "Afterwards it was joined again with Croatia (at the time in Yugoslavia)." (why again?)

Zadar wasn't in the Austrian part in the times of Austro - Hungaric empire, Zadar was under Italy at those times, for quite a while, hence the "joined again with Croatia" part.

Britannica says: "The town was an Austrian possession from 1797 to 1920, except for a brief French interregnum between 1808 and 1813."

Zadar (and Dalmatia) were in the Austrian part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Dalmatia was one of the 15 Crownlands of the so-called "Cisleithania" http://en.wikipedia.org/Cisleithania So, the text should not say "joined again" with Croatia. giordaano87.65.136.192 23:29, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

Agree. Dalmatia and Croatia were different regions under the Austrians. (Moreover, at the time of the Empire, Dalmatia was much more a multi-ethnic and multi-cultural region than it is today) So, if there is not another explanation we should remove the "joined again". --Paolopk2 08:50, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

Page says that Zlatan Ibrahimovic's mother is from Zadar, but the Zlatan Ibrahimovic page says she is a Bosnian Croat from Tuzla. Cordless larry 12:36, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

Zlatan´s father is from Tuzla but his mother is from Prkos, small village just near Zadar. This is 100% certain.

Copyright problem

I see copyright issue here. Misplaced Pages should be made by original contributions. --Paolopk2 08:50, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

Compromise

You both know that both sides are true, so how about this compromise...

Since World War II the city has developed as a strong economic and tourist centre. In 1991, attacks on Serbian civilians occured, culminating in the Zadar Kristallnacht where over 350 Serbian shops and houses were destroyed. Later, the Yugoslav People's Army (JNA) along with Serb paramilitaries converged on the city and it found itself as the subject of shelling. Connections with the capital Zagreb were severed for over a year, the only link being via the island of Pag. Zadar was once again damaged in the war, including its historical bastions and churches. The siege of the city lasted until January 1993 when Zadar again came under the control of Croatian forces. Attacks on the city continued until the end of the war in Croatia in 1995.

I'm copying it in, if you want to complain, complain here. - FrancisTyers 16:04, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

If Dalmatian Kristallnacht gets deleted, that specific reference needs to be deleted to. By the way, the number has recently been revised by Serbian wikipedians to 116 shops. I, of course, can't verify either one. Everyone, take a look at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Dalmatian Kristallnacht and add intelligent discussion if you can.

Zadar Kristallnacht happened after Serbs have killed Croatian police officer Franko Lisica in Benkovac.

Protected

I've protected this, since this revert war doesn't look like it's going to end anytime soon. Adam Bishop 04:55, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

Despite the protection, it would be convenient if the ] link could become ] so it does not end up going to a disambiguation page. Dpv 00:09, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

Oh yeah, I forgot about this...I've unprotected it. I don't understand the crusade links though...why doesn't "crusader" just redirect to "crusade"? Adam Bishop 00:26, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

Edits to Famous People=

There were alot of edits to the famous people area on June 20th 2006 with NO explanation as to why so many were removed....I informed the IP address that did it to not remove info without valid reason on the talk page as per Wiki policy but the IP address did it again. Can someone with more knowledge about Zadar please take a look at the edits and restore as necessary. Also, this editor seemed to take offense to the Italian source of the Zadar name but not the Latin??? KsprayDad 23:33, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Slavica lingua

I cut the following lines: An annalist from the year 1177 noted that the joyous people of Zadar accompanying Pope Alexander III on his way to the basilica sang songs of praise 'in their native Slavic language' Reason: it's not connected with culture or literature. Those lines should be insert in the *proper contest*. A note about the language used by some common people of Zara is neither, nor literature.
