Talk:Sonderweg

message: The article I added, from Heilbronner, states quite explicitly that "Sonderweg" is not accepted any more with historians. Intangible 04:33, 5 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  acceptance 

message: The Sonderweg theories of the 1960s and 1970s as propounded by Hans-Ulrich Wehler and other, mainly German historians, do not try to trace the development back to before the 19th century. They suggest that in some sense Germany went off the rails in the last few decades of the 19th century.
All this is very different indeed from wartime propaganda and the sort of 'theories' that attribute the Third Reich to a supposedly pathological 'national character'. These latter notions are essentially racist. Norvo (talk) 02:11, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  The need to distinguish 

message: A few hours ago, I reread this article. Funny how the first time, months ago, I failed to notice how much redundancy there was in it. Even worse, there were internal contradictions in information presented. It said Haffner wrote in response to Vansittart although it also reported -- correctly -- the dates of the two books AND HAFFNER'S CAME FIRST! The article said the debate over "what caused the German catastrophe of Nazism" started with the collapse of the Third Reich, contradicting itself because there were several sentences about books from 1940-41 starting the debate. I cleaned up the first third or so of this article. There were also several very subtle mistranslations. Hurmata (talk) 11:17, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Late June 2008

message: As I had met while reading the article a comma followed by and odd "August 2008", I removed what I thougth a typo :  (I did not look throughout the history to see how it happened). I see I am getting reverted :  and I took one or two minutes to understand what could be wrong. Eureka ! (Maybe) Should not the "citation" template be a "Fact" template ? If I am right this time, this should be corrected (of course this is minor, nothing serious). French Tourist (talk) 18:13, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Beg your pardon, there was misunderstanding on both sides. When I looked at the history of the previous edits (consecutive versions displayed side by side), I looked only at the color coded raw markup code. I did not scroll down to check how the article versions would appear. Your edit summary, Since ca. 1965:  typo (?), while accurate as far as it goes, does not specify what drew your attention. The "citations" tag at the top of the page is the clue to what the inline tag (tag within the text) was about. On the other hand, the one who placed inline tag got it wrong, and it is I who placed it there, weeks ago. It was my responsibility to format the Fact tag correctly. I have rectified the error.
