This needs to be reorganized. The detailed book informationabout prizes, etc. goes in hte main article text, not the infobox DGG ( talk ) 15:34, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I think a little had been done but, is it enough to be OK or need more. Much regard (F5pillar---/ ^{'Messager🖋📩}) 14:33, 10 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This article has serious problems!

It shouldn't, as the guy is 83 years old and is

"the Raddock Eminent Scholar Chair in Holocaust Studies and director of the Center for the Study of Values and Violence After Auschwitz at Florida Atlantic University".

Yet this BLP relies almost entirely on primary sources! For having such lofty titles and a lifetime in academia, we should be able to find more written about him. For example, he just cranked out the third in his series of Holocaust-related scholarly tomes, titled "Emerging Trends in Third-Generation Holocaust Literature" which I will add to the article now, as it only includes his 2nd-generation survivor collection. Seriously, I think the dependence on scant primary sources is a much greater concern than the current tag in place... although that is a problem too!

I'm sorry for being so grumpy. I miss dearly departed DGG. If he were still alive, he would have been able to give me guidance and we would have addressed the shortcomings.-- FeralOink (talk) 17:25, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
