History

There is a glaring lack of neutrality in the history section. 2A02:1388:14A:4626:0:0:E3CF:B713 (talk) 05:34, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In the second paragraph under Ottoman Empire there are grammatical errors where "of" is used in place of "have".

"Going by the evidence, the early Muslim conversions in Ottoman Bosnia in the 15th–16th century is considered to of happened from the locals whom stayed rather than mass Muslim settlements from outside Bosnia."

"By the late 16th and early 17th century, Muslims are considered to of become an absolute majority in Bosnia and Herzegovina."

In both of these sentences "considered to of" should be "considered to have".

In the first sentence it should also read "the locals who stayed" rather than "the locals whom stayed". ZhephZ (talk) 06:40, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Change native language from Serbo-Croatian to Bosnian. 77.77.216.29 (talk) 05:36, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That is not correct. Serbo-Croatian remains the language, Bosnian is one of the mutually intelligible standard varieties of Serbo-Croatian. Peacemaker67 (click to talk to me) 08:10, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The official Language is BOSNIAN,CROATIAN AND SERBIAN. ALL 3 are official languages not just serbo-croatian. This was edited so our Bosnian history is removed from wiki by serbs 77.77.239.140 (talk) 11:08, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: "Bosnian, Croatian and Serbian" is the official name of Serbo-Croatian in Bosnia and Herzegovina. They are fundamentally dialects of the same language as they (along with Montenegrin) are for the most part mutually intelligible, same deal with American and British English. I am also going to make you aware that the Balkans and Eastern Europe have been designated a contentious topic. Aydo h8^[contribs] 13:48, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
