This article displays an awkward use of English. Perhaps it was written by someone to whom English was a second language. I recommend that a native English speaker rewrite it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Alexselkirk1704 (talk • contribs) 12:34, 10 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
"Prejudice"?? This is the English-language edition of Wikipedia. Broken English is rightly as undesirable here as broken German should be in the German-language edition, etc. If a piece of text was obviously written by someone not at home in the language being used, then it is self-evidently an inexpert translation by that author of what they meant to say and the risk of errors which you abhor has already been run.

The conventional tropical year according to von Mädler

Article has "but then, first proposed by von Mädler himself, a new 128-year rule for additional common years. (The only odd thing in Mädler's proposal was, that neither the year 1900, nor 2028, 2156 etc. [=1900 +128 +128...] were themselves divisible by 128.) / But (according to von Mädler) if the years 3200, 6400, 9600, 12,800, 16,000 and so on are NOT leap years ... ". Observe that, if the 128-year rule were applied to years divisible by 128, then 3200, etc., would already be common years. The apparent duplicate effect would lead to confusion. Perhaps the 128-year rule should apply to years which are an odd multiple of 64 - 1984, 2112, etc. 94.30.84.71 (talk) 14:43, 13 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
