This article has been checked against the following criteria for B-class status:
Text and/or other creative content from this version of The German White Book was copied or moved into Color book with this edit on 19:59, October 10, 2020. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists.
The sections Russian Orange Book, Serbian Blue Book, Belgian Gray Books are currently about a sentence each. Yes, they could be combined, but the point of having separate sections for them is threefold:
parallel structure with the other, larger color book subsections
keep like with like, and encourage expansion
provide a natural destination for the individual redirects
I have some reservations about the use of Hans Kempe (2008) as a source for claims about Germany, and about what other countries opine about Germany. He seems partisan; I'd like to know more about his background, whether he's a historian, and how to assess his reliability. Mathglot (talk) 11:18, 3 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]
There is a wealth of information available about this topic which could be used to expand the article, much of it online in full-text versions, as they are either out of copyright because of age or are governmental publications. Much of it is primary source material, as there are many thousands of pages of original documents and cables published by their governments. Some of them are compendia of original publications, with an added introduction which may or may not be under copyright, but these are secondary sources which have good analyses or summaries of different color books. In creating the article, when I added a citation using one of the sources I found, I placed the citation in section #Works cited; other sources I found but did not use (yet) in a citation, can be found in section #Further reading.
