:Near Gorzów are located the biggest Polish oil fields, more than 210 milion barrels worth $8 bln at the current price. Kpjas
Well, after a little search I reintroduced the clause about the oil fields

message: Regarding the part in the history section about the city being damaged in heavy fighting, I've spent a lot of time in the Gorzów library on Sikorskiego and in all of the books I've seen which actually refer to sources, there is no mention at all of any fighting. Unfortunately I'm on the other side of the world at the moment, so I can't go back and look at the books, but if anyone is actually there it might be a good idea to check it. The story as I read it is that an announcement was made by the SS on the 27th or 28th, stating that the Red Army was a significant distance away and that the citizens had no reason to panic. The SS and Wehrmacht left on the 28th-30th. Most inhabitants were trapped in the city because the roads were clogged, and the trains were already full of Germans from the east. Although I don't have access to the books anymore, I do have my notes from when I was researching this, and can give references to books and page numbers if necessary. 
All I'm really asking for is that we take out the sentence 'In early 1945 it was heavily damaged by fighting between the Wehrmacht and the Red Army.' It was certainly heavily damaged, but I haven't seen any evidence that this was as a result of fighting. If anyone has any evidence about this, I'd be happy to discuss it and see if we can get a definitive answer.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Robertbeaman (talk • contribs) 16:38, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

message: I would like to raise the issue that the 3rd reference referring to the Piast fortifications, mentioned in the first sentence of the history section, is questionable. The book was published in Poland in the mid 70s, which fits perfectly with the Piast 'past' propaganda that was prevalent at the time, especially in respect to the 'recovered lands'. This is not a credible source for these kinds of statements in Wikipedia articles that have nationalist undertones. If a Piast connection does exist, there must surely be an adequate modern source for this.  Globo (talk) 14:41, 10 November 2011 (UTC)
