Hobartimus ( talk · contribs), why are you content forking the existing article? Do you really think that these two terms differ sufficiently for each to have its own article? -- Joy [shallot] ( talk) 15:40, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
If you are looking for identical articles I suggest you look at these two which are very similar to each other. The key difference to Carpathian Basin is the presence of mountains included in the geographical term. While these other two very similar terms include the low-lands only the "plain" part. Since large areas of the Carpathian Basin are mountain ranges, and in fact the name itself comes from a mountain range, this geographical area is much much larger than the plain part which is also depicted in the map in the Pannonian Basin article as explained in the post above. Hobartimus ( talk) 06:27, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
The following map claims to show the Pannonian Basin in Europe and is sourced to "Według / according to Bolesław Augustowski Wielkie regiony naturalne Europy, w / in: Antoni Wrzosek (ed.) Geografia powszechna - tom III, Warszawa 1965" [1] If this map is accurate for the Pannonian basin then it is an entirely different area from the Carpathian basin. The article also states that "The term "Pannonian Basin" was not in use until the end of World War I.[1]" seems like it's a newer term, maybe that's why it's not really well defined? I know on the other hand that the geographical term, Carpathian basin goes back a lot more than that and has a clear definition as to it's boundaries. Hobartimus ( talk) 08:15, 12 August 2011 (UTC)
These two are most certainly different right? One is a plain and one is named after a mountain range, including a lot of mountains. If the Pannonian plain article was copy-paste merged into the Pannonian basin article, then now it's clear that the Carpathian Basin is a different term, than the topic of that article for obvious reasons.
