Project idea edit
What is the problem you're trying to solve? edit
Some words are wrong defined. For example the word "annexation (German: Annexion)" comes out of war times as forceful annexation but is now understood as a peaceful settlement and "referring to".
What is your solution? edit
Give advice to the editors of the GERMAN Duden which words meaning should be changed in the next edition and make a special area on wikipedia where the new definition is presented. e.g. Annexion _____________
new definition suggested/date of confirmation _______________ old definition /date of outdating
Project goals edit
