     - The section with articles http://www.lugos.si/arhiv/prispevki/,
       because those are the verbatim articles as they were printed
       in the Slovenian magazines.

I understand the point--you want to (in effect) quote the articles
as they were published.

There is a technique that you could reasonably use to correct them: by
inserting "[GNU/]" before "Linux" when it refers to the whole system.
This is a standard convention for amending a quotation; it shows what
is your change and what was the original.

What do you think?

     - The statute of LUGOS at
http://www.lugos.si/lugos/statut-2000-04-22.html.
       This is the official version and can be changed only on assembly.

I understand.  Don't worry about that.

    Others should be fine with GNU/Linux where it should be and your
    assistent is free to check them.

Note that when you are talking about the kernel specifically, you
should say just "Linux".  It would be inaccurate to call the kernel
"GNU/Linux".  So blindly replacing every instance of Linux with
GNU/Linux could give the wrong result in some cases.
