Proposal to restore part of the article

I don't understand why this was taken out of this article:

"The primary aspect of the Nuremberg Rallies was to strengthen the personality cult of Adolf Hitler, portraying Hitler as Germany's saviour, chosen by providence. The gathered masses listened to the Führer's speeches, swore loyalty and marched before him. The visitors of the rallies by their own free will were subordinate to the discipline and order in which they should be reborn as a new people." See: The Oath Under the Cathedral of Light at the 1936 Nuremberg Party Rally [1]

I would like to reinsert it somewhere. It is very relevant to understanding the purpose of the rallies. Marknw (talk) 16:49, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

Translation

This is largely a translation of the German article "Reichsparteitage". It's still missing the chapter on the rally grounds (there's even an extra article on the topic in the german wikipedia). I haven't let a native speaker look it over yet. The article runs under the title, it should be "NurembErg rally", not "NurembUrg rally" - a redirect is there though. Also the links should probably be updated. --Ados 1 July 2005 14:51 (UTC)

Number of attendees?

How many people/soldiers attended these rallies. I don't think I've ever seen so many people let alone soldiers in one place before, they must be amongst the biggest rallies in history. Does anyone have any idea on numbers at the largest ones?

I came here wanting to know how many people showed up. But its not here. 68.173.158.64 (talk) 07:23, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Luitpoldhain: around 150,000

  Zeppelinfeld: around 250,000 participants plus 70,000 audience

Triumph of Will etc. contains footage of the Luitpoldhain.

Number of Nazis

It is not really certain, but it seems like 100,000 or above? --CariannaF 21:24, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
