Talk:Anton Mussert

message: I think the statement that Mussert formed an SS unit is untrue, because he disliked the SS. The SS corps was probably created by his more radical pro-German opponents in the party like Rost van Tonningen/Meinoud Rost van Tonningen. It may be sourced to a reputable English language source, but I tend to distrust such sources. I read in an excellent Dutch biography that he oppposed the creation of SS volunteer corpses.

replies: text: Thanks, that is the excellent biography from which I remembered that the truth was somewhat more complicated. The only problem with this biography is that it is in Dutch language. So excerpts used for this article have to be translated to maintain verifiability which is tedious and quite unnecessary, because there is not exactly a scarcity of Dutch language contributors to the English language Wikipedia.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Anton Mussert.jpg

message: The problem is, I guess, that there is no balanced well-researched biography in English language. I have not read the references in English language, but it is my experience that English language books about Dutch WWII subjects tend to be simplistic. Andries (talk) 11:50, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
