A few notes for Helga:
  1. It seems that in the German, the name might be "Oblast Kaliningrad," but in English (as in the Russian: Kaliningradskaya Oblast'), "Oblast" goes second in the name.
  2. Please bear in mind that Wikipedia articles are to be written from a neutral point of view. This one wasn't. The first paragraph makes (made) it sound as if Kaliningrad were merely a temporary occupation by Russia, and that the proper name for the place is "East Prussia"--which is both partisan and misleading. Moreover, nearly all the information you gave here was of a historical nature (you say absolutely nothing about what Kaliningrad Oblast). I strongly recommend that you state whatever objections you have to the current political situation explicitly--that is, as long as your views might be representative of some Prussian advocates. What would be really interesting to me is an article about the sort of Prussian advocacy that you enjoy engaging in here on Wikipedia. Is there a group of Prussians who want a Prussian homeland? I simply don't know. Would be interesting to learn that in an encyclopedia article about the subject.
  3. For clarity, most of us have be putting the subject of an article in bold in the first sentence of the article.
