Past tense
[edit]@Fratiibug: you are correct, however I wonder if present tense was intended. Note the following sentence giving the contrasting view is present tense. GA-RT-22 (talk) 01:18, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
The included map
[edit]The map included in the infobox for this article seems a bit out of place to me, with no explanation on why the Wolf's Lair location is shown against the administrative borders of present-day Poland, considering this was undisputed German territory at the time. It looks like it was just copied over from the Wolf's Lair article. Maybe it could be changed to feature the map of Nazi Germany in 1944 instead? Quenched wick (talk) 21:10, 16 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Quenched wick Usually, those infobox maps are made using a template that takes a GPS location and imposes it on a modern world map using some fancy code. Unfortunately, we don't have maps from every date in history in that template. So if we ever want time period specific maps, someone will actually have to make that image in an image editing software. Though I think a time period specific map could be a good addition, I also think the modern map is helpful, as I don't think most folks could picture where in Europe the wolf's lair was except with regards to a modern reference, i.e., modern Poland. I'm an avid fan of history and even I have to think about modern day borders to get a sense of where things were in history :) But I certainly wouldn't stop you from making a map of its place in 1944 borders.
