User acted unilaterally & with possible motive: Narodil se Kristus pán was expanded from a redirect with nationalistic intent by
Heptapolein (
talk·contribs) ("it is originally Czech song, thus, it cannot be redirected to German copy", from the edit summary on the page which expanded the article) after the first one, with no consensus(
WP:CONSENSUS) from anyone else.
....interesting, that the creator of German article agreed with it, because she realizes German version arose from original Czech song. It is logical, that original version should be preffered

Keep (of course) - it is originally Czech carol and its German version is an adjusted copy. I really do not understand the proposal for deletion. On the contrary, the German duplication should be mentioned as an version of original song. The text of the article speaks clearly about the origin of the song. To call my article "nationalistic" is wrong, because "suum cuique" (Cicero) should be a basic rule. To prefer cover version would be really absurd praecedens.

Keep. It makes more sense to keep the original as the main article rather than the cover. I could imagine this article with the added content from the German one and add a redirect from the German name here. In other words, get the German content here, add a redirect and delete the German article. It may sound nationalist but I'd still prefer this solution even if both versions were from the same country or the other way around. Or, we could just keep both versions since the German is better known and they don't conflict each other, therefore I see no other problem than redundancy, which isn't harmful.
