WARNING: ACTIVE ARBITRATION REMEDIES

Wikipedia:Arbitration/Requests/Case/Antisemitism in Poland#Article sourcing expectations (9 May 2021):

The Arbitration Committee advises that administrators may impose "reliable-source consensus required" as a discretionary sanction on all articles on the topic of Polish history during World War II (1933-45), including the Holocaust in Poland. On articles where "reliable-source consensus required" is in effect, when a source that is not a high quality source (an article in a peer-reviewed scholarly journals, an academically focused book by a reputable publisher, and/or an article published by a reputable institution) is added and subsequently challenged by reversion, no editor may reinstate the source without first obtaining consensus on the talk page of the article in question or consensus about the reliability of the source in a discussion at the Reliable Sources Noticeboard.

Concentration camps

Preserving here by providing this link; my rationale was: "exploration of the history of concentration camps seems off-topic". --K.e.coffman (talk) 02:17, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"Jewish Poles"

The term "Jewish Poles" in the lead strikes me as somewhat misleading, considering Poles and Jews are typically considered to be two separate ethnic groups, and the Nazis especially made this a very clear distinction; I propose that the wording be changed to "Polish Jews".

Typo

"Trebinka" should be "Treblinka" (can't fix it, since the page is protected) WorldAsWill (talk) 21:02, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Use of soviet tank engines for gassing.

This is both unconfirmed and highly unlikely. The people who actually maintain per the engines said that they were petrol engines from German trucks. Easy to maintain and use. Soviet tank engines would have to be brought from the front, (highly impractical) and would be Diesel engines - not producing the needed carbon monoxide at any decent rate - and would be hard to maintain, get spares for, etc. It is true that some people - non technical, and often third party- claimed they used tank engines or submarine engines (similarly impractical) because they sounded scary and more sinister- but this is very much unconfirmed, and disputed. It would be better to edit this page and drop the claim- apart from anything else, this claim is often highlighted by Holocaust deniers who point out that it is Impractical, and that the engines would not be good for gassing people. Keeping this claim in the article fuels Holocaust denial. 79.94.163.107 (talk) 18:04, 10 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
