The convention on Wikipedia is that non-English language words should only be used where they are the term commonly used in English speech. Otherwise the term is translated. So the list of national legislatures has: "Knesset" and "Bundestag" (both commonly used in English speech) but "Federal Assembly" for Austria rather than the translation "Bundesversammlung" (which English speakers dont use).
Is『Skupština』actually the common term used in English? The current Wikipedia entry uses the term "Parliament of Serbia and Montenegro" but i suspect this may be incorrect as well. The only seemingly official website i could find calls it the "Assembly of Serbia and Montenegro".
Also i'm not sure i understand your objection to the Estonian legislature being listed. There is no article at present but hopefully someone will add one in future. (By the way, to avoid charges of inconsistency, according to its official site the Estonian legislature is refered to as "Riigikogu", even in English).
Skupstina is the name of Serbian and Montenegrin parliament. In English if somebody pronounce Skupstina easily he will call use that term. Otherwise he will say Parliament becuase it is easier. You see I don`t have and idea how to read Riigikogu because I never heard that word but I still insist in using that word. If we use something like "state assembly of Estonia" than most of the people will not know it`s real name. We have to use terms like Riigikogu, Skupstina to make tham commonly used as Knesset and Bundestag. This is not Simple English Wikipedia after all.
The Parliament of Serbia and Montenegro (Skupština Srbije i Crne Gore) is the national assembly of Serbia and Montenegro.
i'm not really sure if this is what this is used for ...but i noticed while reading that someone had included the phrase "RAWR RAWR RAWR RAWR RAWR!!" in the middle paragraph under Chambers so i corrected it and took that out. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Snipesava (talk • contribs) 20:48, 9 March 2007 (UTC).[reply]
I'm new here to Wikipedia so I have no idea how to make new posts so I'm editing someones to put mine in :). Anyways, someone added a foul comment about Legislatures working to fuck people out of office and then someone kindly added a comment about the first correspondants mother being a whorebag... I gladly edited both comments out and I explained WHY I edited it in the article. Areth naar 19:56, 4 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
You put the explanation in the edit summary not on the actual page, you put the text from the history page back to replace teh vandalism. You experiment with editing in the sandbox. You use put ~~~~ (four tildes) at the end of a talk post so it signs your name, and the date and time. WayeMason 20:43, 4 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The House of Representatives may bring no charges. All bills which concern false statements must originate in the house. Because of the size of the body, debate is unnecessary in special cases, where all representatives may meet as a sub-ordinate indivisible member of the union.
Any arguments with deleting this passage? It seems to refer to the US Congress and it's too vague. —Hantalk) 08:37, 7 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
No, I'll do it now. I think this is referring more to the United States system than to legislatures in general.Ltwin (talk) 04:02, 16 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
the term sasuage factory redirects to legislature. I have heard of this reference before, and incidentally i was actually interested in reading more about the use of this term to describe the legislature. however, i was quite dissapointed that wikipedia didnt deliver what was promised. i think there is a legitimate expectation that when you redirect a term, then the term should be explored on that page Yili2943 (talk) 04:33, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I removed the word "representative" from the first sentence, which started
A legislature is a type of representative deliberative assembly...
because a legislature is not necessarily representative. For example, non-British citizens of the commonwealth can serve in the British House of Lords. I also removed it because the reference for that statement did not claim that a legislature need be representative. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.23.145.136 (talk) 02:49, 9 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Do these two both really need separate articles? All that each of those articles effectively say is that these two terms are used in various places to describe either the Legislature as a whole or a specific part of it. I'm inclined to propose a merge, but thought it worth bringing the subject up here first. Brickie (talk) 12:04, 5 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Since no one's mentioned it in quite a while, I removed the merge templates, but if people are still considering it, by all means, replace them.mcornelius (talk) 03:56, 21 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
