 Certain individuals (''or'' organisations) are  using Wikipedia's article for biased nationalistic propaganda. It otherwise tainted a ''perfectly'' good article on this unique individual. Some of the Croatian [[Nationalistic Editing on Wikipedia|Wiki-Editors]] just can't separate ultra-extreme nationalistic propaganda from an unbiased historical perspective. Has Wikipedia become a gathering place for such editors?
