Proposed Bosniak republic: what Wikipedia removed
The proposed Bosniak republic was a partition plan floated during the Bosnian War. Through 2020 the opening said an independent ‘Muslim state’ option was ‘proposed by Islamists.’ Today’s opening attributes the same proposal to ‘some Bosniak leaders,’ and the word survives twice in the body. A reader today learns Bosniak leaders proposed the plan and not that the opening once specifically attributed it to Islamists.
The word “islamist” appeared 1 times in this article’s opening at its peak, in 2020. Today the opening carries none; the body carries 2. Checked against the full current article on 2026-08-01.
