Not sure if the story about the Pope telling a guy to be proud to be a Jew is verifiable enough to be on Wikipedia 

1. Effectively, the only source is one ANONYMOUS article by a person who claims to have been directly involved.  Technically, there are two articles, but the one from 2006 relies only on the one from 1944 as its sole source, and does not indicate that the author of the 2006 did any independent research beyond finding the 1944 article on the Internet.  Generally, Wikipedia does not consider a single unverified first-person account to be sufficient, and that should be especially true when it is anonymous.

2. According to the 1944 article, there should be many, many witnesses.  After 69 years, neither the Pope, nor any of the Vatican officials there with him, nor any of the 80 or so visitors waiting has confirmed that this incident ever happened.  Some of the witnesses, especially the German soldiers, might have died before the story was first published.  However, if it was true, there should have been at least some surviving witnesses.  The lack of any independent verification makes the entire story rather doubtful.
