[edit]This article is about a city in Poland
History
[edit]I believe this article would be much better if it had a History section. Any volunteers? [[User:Halibutt|Halibutt]] 11:45, Sep 14, 2004 (UTC)
It does now (08/01/07)
Pronunciation
[edit]I don't think ɔ:pɔlε is correct because Polish doesn't have long vowels. Additionally, it might be useful to mark the stres, so I suggest: ɔˈpɔlε.
Regarding above, I live there and both "O"s are as in hot & pot,and the "e" as in end or pen.
Yes, I agree with you. ( I'm from Poland ) O like in hot, P - pen, L - like, E - end. 77.113.97.231 (talk) 15:06, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
St. Adalbert's Church?
[edit]I believe it's called Holy Mary's (Polish: Najswietszej Marii Panny) Church. Shouldn't it be corrected? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.222.88.124 (talk) 13:59, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
strange category
[edit]Someone added a category that Opole is a site of 21st-century attack on synagogues and Jewish communal organizations.
First of all this old Jewish cemetary is not owned by any Jewish communal organizations, but is a property of Opole communal services. Second of all the information about its recent desacration has been demented on the portal Jewish.org.pl but that was not checked by the brave fighter with supposed anti-semitic acts.
Categories in articles about cities are concerning their administrative location. Adding there something like this looks simply grotesque. Finally desacrations of Jewish (and other minority) cemetaries happen in many cities in the world. On the same CFCA page there is an information that a cemetary was devastated in Hartford, Connecticut, but there is no "21st-century attacks on synagogues and Jewish communal organizations" category there. Why?

text removed from main article
[edit](Note: The deportation of Viennese Jews to Opole most likely is a reference to a historical event that happened in "the other Opole," a town by the same time in Lublin, in eastern Poland. Therefore, the facts in this paragraph may not be factual as they apply to the Opole this article refers to).
This was in the "After WWI" section of the article. While this statement may be correct, it does not belong in the article. Perhaps an editor with access to resources regarding the deportation of Jews from Vienna could research this further. (The "other Opole" referred to is Opole Lubelskie). W. B.

- the text mentioned above is still today, more than four years after (or again) in this article! It is confusing! 80.151.9.187 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 12:15, 18 December 2018 (UTC)
