OK, it's done - <a href='http://cs.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C3%A1ska_je_l%C3%A1ska' target='_blank'>link</a>. I also added the link to it to the english article (which I basically translated). I guess I'm gonna extend it a bit more later.

why did you add the IMDb-assessment??
i think its not good because if you look at the assessment in detail (click on vote and scroll down)
american/regular voters voted 6.6/6.9 and thats probably because of its not dubbed to their language so they pull the whole assessment down :-/
of course in that case they count too, but the assessment hasn't to be noticed in the article? :-)
do you get my point?
just an idea...

Yeah, I get it, but it's a regular rating nonetheless, although screwed up by American voters. I changed the sentence to: The assessment is very positive in most cases, e.g. on IMDb, the movie has a user rating of 8.0/10 at the moment (detailed statistics reveal that US voters gave the film an average rating of 6.6 a brought the overall rating down - reason for a rating that's so different from the rest of the world is unknown). Most of both proffesional reviewers and internet users agree that it's a very realistic story about growing up and the love itself, not only the lesbian love.

is a assessment/own opinion at all permitted in an encyclopedia??

respectively what users vote?

But I think it's pretty much neutral....it says something about how is it rated throughout on the internet and I base it on the biggest movie site. It also gives you some facts on the voting statistics. I could have written it like "Most of the users, including me, say this movie is just GREAT. Because this movie is soooo realistic and so nice. You really have to see for yourself. And the idiots from USA gave it 6.6 on IMDB, morons."
;)

A czech admin reviewed the page, corrected some mistakes, but didn't say anything about the assessment part, so I guess that's allright.
BTW I love wikipedia, I already wrote a second article, great feeling :rolleyes:

That's strange. I think all wikis run on the same engine (maybe even on one server). It was probably just a temporary problem. When I was adding the FA article to the czech wiki, I saw a message about some temporary database lockdown. It was OK in an hour.
