Could Brandenburg literally mean "burnt fortress"? I guess it may not have ever referred to such a physical landmark if it came to German merely as a phonetic approximation of a Slavic word. Maybe then "burnt fortress" would be folk etymology. — ¾-10 21:21, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
In Iron Kingdom, Christopher Clark always refers to the city as Brandenburg City in order to distinguish it from Brandenburg. I would like to suggest this usage for this article. -- 85.181.226.22 ( talk) 22:21, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
The large paragraph on concentration camps is completly uncited and is full of spelling mistakes. Can anyone site these or otherwise delete it? 89.213.1.85 ( talk) 10:46, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
The German Wikipedia article is good, this one is full of errors. For example, Brandenburg was not 70% destroyed by bombing, 70% of its industry was, and this happened a few weeks before the end of the war (31.3. and 20.4.1945), when industrial production had already ceased. Therefore, stopping industrial production could hardly have been the reason for the bombing. The discussion of the etymology of the name Brandenburg is hardly adequate, to be polite. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.216.119.121 ( talk) 19:53, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
Hello! This is a note to let the editors of this article know that File:Brandenburg Pano 02 (MK).jpg will be appearing as picture of the day on February 9, 2012. You can view and edit the POTD blurb at Template:POTD/2012-02-09. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page so Wikipedia doesn't look bad. :) Thanks! — howcheng { chat} 17:43, 8 February 2012 (UTC)

There is smth unclear in the Middle Ages section. It says that in the 17th century the court was moved to Potsdam. But the capital of Brandenburg Markgraviate was moved to Berlin in 1417. What court is mentioned here?-- Ymblanter ( talk) 20:37, 29 August 2018 (UTC)
