The UI uses only linked German-name attestations in added countries for both views.","German names are distinct, language-tagged alternatives, plus reviewed source corrections. An exonym alone is not evidence of former German settlement.","Historical flags and date ranges are incomplete; unverified alternatives are labelled as such. One canonical German name per place; other forms remain in metadata.","Current local names prefer non-historical national-language alternatives. Current-name endings include selected localized spellings, without individual etymological verification.","Municipality name pairs require an equal normalized current name and a GeoNames point inside the municipality; absent pairs are not guessed."]}
