message: This is a good article, but where are the references? - Ta bu shi da yu 05:25, 21 Jan 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks. It's mostly translated from de:Ernst Thälmann, which has 5 weblinks and one ref. All are in German, so I didn't think it worth putting them here. I've now added the (also German) link to his speeches though. Rd232 07:05, 21 Jan 2005 (UTC)

thread_title: Entirely one sided

message: This article is totally one sided. This article entirely accuses the KPD as responsible for the NAZI party's rise to power, when everybody knows that the SPD was the party which had greater influence in the working class and did nothing to oppose Hitler.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.140.8.143 (talk) 20:40, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Really?  From ca. 1929-1933, Stalin's policy was that so-called "Social fascism" was the greatest menace.  Of course, he completely changed his tune after 1933... AnonMoos (talk) 02:59, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Totally one sided article 

message: "Thälmann spent over eleven years in solitary confinement. In August 1944, he was transferred from Bautzen prison to Buchenwald concentration camp. There, on 18 August, perhaps on Hitler's orders, he was shot."  Anything is possible.  Churchill or FDR could have ordered he be shot too.  They could have ordered commandos penetrate the concentration camp to knock Thalmann off.  But there is no more evidence to suggest that than there is that Hitler order he be shot, or vice-versa.
Are encyclopedia's supposed to conjecture upon what might have happened.  I think Hitler had more important things to worry about in 1944 than Fritz Thalmann.75.36.244.152 (talk) 04:31, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: It's a little odd that down below it says "perhaps on Hitler's orders", while in the lead paragraph at top there's no "perhaps".  Add a "fact" tag if you feel like it. AnonMoos (talk) 06:16, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Shot 

message: The article says that Thälmann was arrested by the Gestapo in March 1933. But everything I've found states that the Gestapo wasn't formed until April 1933. So who arrested Thälmann? --Cckerberos (talk) 16:23, 13 December 2014 (UTC)

thread_title: POV and unsourced claims

message: I am proposing a disambiguation page be set up to host the seven pages which contain the name Ernst Thälmann in the title per WP:3DABS. The footnote will redirect users there instead of the Soviet Warship. AlessandroTiandelli333 (talk) 19:13, 27 April 2017 (UTC)
thread_title: Disambiguation

message: The article states that the KPD competed with the SPD during the First World War. As the KPD wasn't founded until 30 December 1918 that's obviously garbage.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7D:CE9:E200:C532:A6AE:C972:4EF2 (talk) 18:09, 31 December 2017 (UTC)
